Action
Bulk Create Networks

Why this helps
Setting up several locations one at a time makes network onboarding easy to delay and difficult to track.
- Create multiple networks through one bulk operation.
- Reduce repetitive network setup for onboarding.
- Use prepared details and report the resulting operation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect DNSFilter in Notis and AnyDB if it holds the prepared network details.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it for network batches.
- 3Tell Notis to bulk create only the complete networks supplied for the run, and stop if required names are missing.
- 4Choose a Notis schedule and a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with a small batch of real network details.
