Tools & Actions (57 available)

  • 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.
  • Create Custom DNS Rule: Create custom DNS rules for a profile to control domain resolution. Use this to block ads/trackers, bypass filtering for specific domains, spoof DNS responses with custom IPs, or redirect traffic through proxies.
  • Create Custom Rules in Profile Folder: Tool to create custom rules within a specific folder for a profile. Use after confirming the profile and folder IDs and preparing rule definitions.
  • Create Device: Create a new device (DNS endpoint) in Control D. Each device gets unique DNS resolvers that enforce configured profiles. Requires a valid profile_id from GET_PROFILES. Returns DNS resolver URLs (DoH, DoT) and IPs for configuring client devices.
  • Create Profile: Create a new blank profile or clone an existing one. Profiles define DNS filtering rules, services, and settings that can be applied to devices. Use this to provision a new profile before assigning rules, filters, or devices to it.
  • Create Profile Schedule: Create a new time-based schedule within a Control D profile. Schedules allow automatic enforcement of profile rules during specified time windows. Use this to set up recurring time periods (e.g., work hours, bedtime) when specific DNS filtering rules should apply. Requires a valid profile_id from GET /profiles.
  • Delete Device by ID: Permanently delete a Control-D device/endpoint by its ID. WARNING: This is a destructive operation. Deleting a device will break DNS resolution on any physical gadget configured to use this device's unique DNS resolvers. Use GET /devices to retrieve valid device IDs before calling this action.
  • Delete Profile: Permanently deletes a Control D profile by its unique identifier (PK). IMPORTANT: The profile must be orphaned (not enforced by any device) before it can be deleted. If the profile is currently assigned to one or more devices, the deletion will fail. Use this tool when you need to remove an unused profile from the account. To check if a profile is safe to delete, first verify it has no associated devices using the Get Devices or Get Profile endpoints.
  • Delete Profile Rule by Hostname: Delete a custom DNS rule by hostname from a Control D profile. This tool removes a DNS blocking/redirecting rule identified by its hostname from the specified profile. Requires a valid profile_id (obtainable via the Get Profiles action) and the exact hostname of the rule to delete. Common use cases: - Remove a block rule for a specific domain - Delete a redirect/custom DNS rule - Clean up test rules from a profile
  • Delete Profile Rule by Rule ID: Delete a custom DNS rule from a Control D profile by its rule identifier (hostname/domain). This tool removes a DNS filtering rule from the specified profile. Rules in Control D are identified by the hostname/domain they target (e.g., 'example.com', 'ads.domain.com'). Prerequisites: - Obtain profile_id from GET /profiles endpoint - Obtain rule_id (the hostname/domain) from GET /profiles/{profile_id}/rules endpoint Note: Requires write access to the API (read-only tokens will receive a 403 error).
  • Delete Profile Schedule: Tool to delete a specific schedule within a profile. Use after confirming profile_id and schedule_id.
  • Delete Rule from Folder: Delete a custom DNS rule from a specific folder in a Control D profile. This action permanently removes a custom rule (e.g., block, bypass, spoof, or redirect) from the specified folder within a profile. Requires valid profile_id, rule_id, and folder_id which can be obtained from: - profile_id: Get Profiles action - folder_id: Get Profile Folders action - rule_id: List Custom Rules in Folder action
  • Get Analytics Endpoints: Tool to list analytics storage regions and their endpoints. Use after authenticating to retrieve available analytics regions.
  • Get Analytics Levels: Tool to retrieve available analytics log levels for Control D devices. Use when you need to know what analytics options can be configured on devices (No Analytics, Some Analytics, Full Analytics).

Use when you need to display device type options or validate device icon identifiers when creating or updating devices.
  • Get Devices: Lists all Control D devices (endpoints) associated with the account. Each device represents a unique DNS resolver that enforces a Profile (set of filtering rules). Use this to retrieve device inventory, check device status, or get resolver configuration details. Optionally filter by device_type to get only 'users' (desktops/mobiles/browsers) or 'routers'.
  • Get IP: Tool to retrieve the current IP address and datacenter information for the API request. Use when you need to check which IP address is being used or which Control D datacenter is handling requests.
  • Get Network Stats: Tool to retrieve network stats on available services in different POPs (Points of Presence). Use when you need information about service availability across Control D's network infrastructure.

  • Get Profile Analytics Logs: Retrieves DNS query activity logs for a specific Control D profile. This tool fetches analytics logs that record DNS queries made through the profile, including details about blocked, allowed, and redirected queries. Use this to monitor DNS activity, audit security policies, or troubleshoot DNS resolution issues. Prerequisites: - A valid profile_id obtained from GET /profiles endpoint - Analytics must be enabled for the profile to have log data Common use cases: - View recent DNS queries for a profile - Filter logs by date range to analyze specific time periods - Audit which domains were blocked or allowed

  • Get Profile Analytics Top Domains: Tool to fetch top domains accessed within a specific profile. Use after confirming profile ID.
  • Get Profile Filters: List all native (Control D curated) filters for a profile and their current states. Native filters are hand-curated blocklists maintained by Control D (e.g., 'Ads & Trackers', 'Malware', 'Adult Content'). Use this to see which filters are enabled/disabled for a profile. For 3rd party community filters, use the GET /profiles/{profile_id}/filters/external endpoint instead.
  • Get Profile Folders: List all rule folders (groups) within a Control D profile. Rule folders are used to organize and group custom DNS rules. Each folder has an action type (BLOCK, BYPASS, SPOOF, or REDIRECT) and contains multiple rules. Use this after obtaining a valid profile_id from the list profiles endpoint.
  • Get Profile Options: Retrieves all available configuration options for DNS profiles in Control D. Returns a list of profile options including security filters (Safe Search, AI Malware Filter), TTL settings, block responses, and advanced DNS options (DNSSEC, DNS64, CNAME Flattening).
