Review a Control D service policy after tab changes

Use a change to your policy workbook's tabs as a cue to update the specified service rule.

Trigger

Worksheet Names Changed

Triggers when the set of worksheet/tab names changes in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when sheets are added, deleted, or renamed.

Action

Modify Service for Profile

Tool to modify a specific service rule for a profile. Use when you need to update blocking, bypassing, spoofing, or proxy-redirect settings after reviewing existing rules.

Why this helps

A reorganization of policy tabs can leave service settings in Control D needing a follow-up.

  • Prompt service policy review after workbook changes
  • Limit the action to a named profile and service
  • Reduce dropped follow-up work

  • 4Pick Worksheet Names Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real worksheet name change and verify the service settings in Control D.
