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.

Organization Management (Business Accounts)

Organization features require a business account. These endpoints manage multi-user access, sub-organizations, and team deployments.

Note: Contact [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) from a work email to request business account access.

Organization capabilities include:

  • Manage large amounts of end user devices or networks
  • Quickly onboard hundreds/thousands of devices using RMM
  • Grant access to team members with permission levels
  • Group Profiles and Endpoints into Sub-Organizations
  • Share Profiles between organizations
  • Lock resolvers to specific IP addresses

The organization endpoints operate on the organization associated with your API token (no org_id in path).

# View organization info (your organization context)
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $CONTROLD_API_TOKEN" \
  "https://api.controld.com/organizations/organization" | jq '.body'

# Modify organization settings
curl -s -X PUT -H "Authorization: Bearer $CONTROLD_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "name=Updated Org Name&twofa_req=1" \
  "https://api.controld.com/organizations"

Modify Organization Parameters (all optional):

Common Workflows

Set Up New Device

  1. List profiles: profiles list
  2. Create or select profile
  3. Create device with profile: devices create NAME PROFILE_ID ICON
  4. Note the resolver addresses (DoH/DoT/IPv4) from response
  5. Configure device DNS to use resolvers

Block Social Media

  1. List social media services: curl ... /services/categories/social
  2. Block each service: services block PROFILE_ID facebook
  3. Or create custom rules for specific domains

Enable Ad Blocking

  1. List filters: filters list PROFILE_ID
  2. Enable ad-related filters: filters enable PROFILE_ID ads
  3. Enable malware filters: filters enable PROFILE_ID malware

Redirect Traffic Through Proxy (Geo-Spoofing)

  1. List proxies: ./scripts/controld.sh proxies list
  2. Set service to spoof via proxy:
    curl -s -X PUT -H "Authorization: Bearer $CONTROLD_API_TOKEN" \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{"do":2,"status":1,"via":"PROXY_PK"}' \
      "https://api.controld.com/profiles/PROFILE_ID/services/SERVICE_ID"
    

Mass Deploy to Enterprise Endpoints

  1. Create provisioning code: provision create
  2. Deploy via RMM using the provided command
  3. Monitor endpoint registrations in dashboard

Rate Limiting

API rate limit: ~1200 requests per 5 minutes (4 req/sec average). Exponential backoff on 429 responses.

Notes

  • Organization endpoints require a business account
  • Sub-organization members inherit parent org member permissions unless explicitly added
  • Global Profile on a sub-org applies to ALL devices in that sub-org
  • Analytics data is stored for 1 month (raw logs) or 1 year (stats)
  • SSO supported: Okta OIDC and Microsoft EntraID OIDC

API Documentation Sources

Verified endpoints (from API reference, March 2026):
