Create Control D devices from Outlook requests

Provision devices from the request thread and keep the resulting resolver details easy to find.

Trigger

New Outlook Message

Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Create Device

Tool to create a new device. Use when you need to provision devices and retrieve their DNS resolvers.

Why this helps

Device provisioning gets delayed when approvals and DNS setup live in separate tools.

  • Shorten device setup time
  • Keep provisioning tied to approval
  • Return identifiers for follow-up

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Control D once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Outlook device provisioner.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a device only when the message provides the approved device name and required settings.
  • 4Pick New Outlook Message as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one provisioning request.

Questions about this workflow

Will it create devices from ordinary emails?

No. Restrict it to messages explicitly marked as approved provisioning requests.

Where are the new device details reported?

Notis includes the Control D result in the run report channel you choose.
