Control D DNS Management

Control D is a DNS filtering and privacy service. This skill enables full API access.

Authentication

Store API token in environment variable or pass directly:

export CONTROLD_API_TOKEN="your-api-token"

Get your API token from: https://controld.com/dashboard (Account Settings > API)

Token Types:

• Read - View-only access to Profiles, Devices, and Analytics
• Write - View and modify data (create/modify/delete)

Security Tip: Restrict tokens by allowed IP addresses for automation hosts.
