Block a specific domain in DNSFilter

Turn an actionable domain request into a focused DNSFilter policy block with a single webhook run.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add Blacklist Domain To Policy

Blocks a domain for users covered by a policy.

Why this helps

A specific domain can remain unblocked while a request waits for someone to update the right policy.

  • Make a targeted change to one DNSFilter policy.
  • Reduce copy-and-paste work for urgent block requests.
  • Require the request to include a domain and policy.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and DNSFilter once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for domain blocks.
  • 3Tell Notis to add the requested domain to the specified DNSFilter policy block list, only when both details are present.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and a run report destination.
  • 5Test with one domain and a real policy identifier.

Questions about this workflow

Does this add the domain to every policy?

No. The action is for a single policy. Use the multi-policy action when several policies are intended.

Can it decide whether the request is valid?

Notis can check whether required details are present, but the request should supply the decision to block.

Does AnyDB have an event trigger here?

No AnyDB trigger events are listed, so the workflow starts from a Notis webhook.
