Swiftask connects your AI agents to the Control D API. Manage your DNS rules, security filters, and network policies dynamically and automatically.
Result:
Boost operational agility by eliminating manual repetitive configurations on your Control D endpoints.
Manual network rule management is a bottleneck
Configuring filtering rules or modifying DNS policies via Control D requires constant manual intervention. As your infrastructure grows, complexity rises, leading to configuration errors and slower response times.
Main negative impacts:
Swiftask turns your Control D management into an automated process. Your AI agents trigger the necessary API calls to update your rules in real time based on your business requirements.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Traditional management
An administrator must manually log into the Control D dashboard to update security filters. If an incident occurs, the response time depends on human availability.
Orchestration with Swiftask
Swiftask detects a need (via webhook or alert) and instantly executes the appropriate Control D endpoints. Your rules are updated in milliseconds, without intervention.
Automate Control D in four simple steps
STEP 1 : Agent configuration
Create your Swiftask agent and securely authorize access to your Control D API credentials.
STEP 2 : Trigger definition
Set up your trigger events: security alerts, schedule changes, or external system requests.
STEP 3 : Action mapping
Associate your agent actions with specific Control D API endpoints (e.g., modifying filtering rules).
STEP 4 : Deployment and execution
Activate the workflow. Swiftask now handles API communication autonomously and securely.
Advanced orchestration capabilities
The agent analyzes request parameters, validates access rights, and checks the current state of your Control D configuration before every call.
Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.
Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-control-d@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.
Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
