Control D

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'.

Tool to list analytics storage regions and their endpoints. Use after authenticating to retrieve available analytics regions.

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).

Tool to retrieve a specific analytics log entry by its ID. Use when you need details of an analytics log for a given profile.

Tool to retrieve billing history of all payments made. Use when you need to access payment records, transaction history, or billing information for the account.

Retrieve all products currently activated on the Control D account. Use this to view active billing products, subscriptions, and their details.

List all allowed device types in Control D. Returns categorized device types (OS, Browser, TV, Router) with their available icon identifiers and human-readable labels. Use when you need to display device type options or validate device icon identifiers when creating or updating devices.

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.

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.

Tool to view the authenticated organization's details. Use after confirming a valid API token.

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 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.

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 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 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.

Modify an existing Control D device's settings. Use this tool to update device properties such as name, associated profiles, analytics level, IP learning, restrictions, DDNS settings, and status. At least one field to update must be provided alongside the device_id.

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.

Modify an existing custom DNS rule for a profile in Control D. Use this to update rule properties such as action type (block/bypass/spoof/redirect), status (enabled/disabled), target hostnames, and redirect destinations. Rule types: - BLOCK (do=0): Block DNS resolution for the hostnames - BYPASS (do=1): Bypass all filters for the hostnames - SPOOF (do=2): Return custom IP addresses (set via/via_v6) - REDIRECT (do=3): Route traffic through a proxy (set via to proxy ID)

Modify organization settings such as name, contact details, website, and device limits. Use this to update organization metadata or change billing-related limits (max_users, max_routers). Note: Changing max_users or max_routers is a billable event. Requires a write-enabled API token with organization admin permissions.

Modify an existing profile by its ID. Use this to update profile properties such as the display name, deactivation timestamp, or lock status. Requires at least one modifiable field (name, disable_ttl, lock_status, lock_message).

Modify the enabled state of a specific native filter on a profile. Use this tool to enable or disable individual content filters like 'ads', 'malware', 'social', etc. on a specific profile. The filter status is set using integer values (1 = enabled, 0 = disabled).

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.

Tool to move a specific custom rule into a different folder. Use after confirming profile_id, rule_id, and folder_id.

Tool to update an existing custom rule by its ID. Use when modifying details like name, description, severity, or enabled status for a specific rule.

Tool to update external filters for a specific profile. Use when toggling third-party filters after listing them.

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.

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 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).

Tool to delete a specific schedule within a profile. Use after confirming profile_id and schedule_id.

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
