Schedule a DnsFilter category review

Set a regular reminder with the current category list ready, so a policy review starts with the information you need.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List All Categories

Tool to list all categories including internal categories. use when you need the complete set of filtering categories.

Why this helps

Policy reviews can slip when someone has to remember both the review and the lookup that comes before it.

  • Retrieve all DnsFilter categories on a schedule.
  • Put category information in a predictable run report.
  • Pair a recurring review reminder with the data needed to start.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect DnsFilter once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list all DnsFilter categories and summarize the results in each scheduled run report.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real run and review the returned categories.

Questions about this workflow

Does the schedule change category or filtering settings?

No. List All Categories retrieves information for review and does not change policies.

How often should the review run?

Choose a cadence that matches your own review process. The workflow does not prescribe a policy review interval.
