Apply approved Control D filter changes from Gmail
Handle a clearly approved set of filter updates together and keep the email decision close to the resulting report.
Trigger
New Gmail Message Received Trigger
Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.
Action
Bulk Update Profile Filters
Tool to bulk update filters on a specific profile. Use when you need to enable or disable multiple filters at once. Provide a list of filter IDs with desired states.
Why this helps
Several small filter changes can take repeated edits, making an approved request easy to delay or partially apply.
- Apply an approved set of native filter states together.
- Reduce repetitive profile editing.
- Keep a report of the requested and completed changes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Control D once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to proceed only when the email clearly approves listed native filter IDs and states, confirm the profile, bulk update, and report the outcome.
- 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real approval email and a small set of filter changes.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow decide which filters should change?
No. The request should list the intended filter IDs and desired states. The automation should not infer policy choices.
What happens if only some requested filters are valid?
Have Notis report the issue and avoid silently applying an incomplete or ambiguous request.
