Disable DNS filtering / AdGuardHome for a certain amount of seconds

[Chingato]

Hi,

I am looking for an easy and fast possibility to disable any blocking for a certain time (in seconds). I know that I can disable via the web interface. But it is rather complicated/time consuming to first login to the web interface and then disable.

Use Case:

• In case some websites do not work properly I like to temporarily disable any blocking via AdGuardHome
• It would be ok if the filtering/blocking is completely off and not only for the current device.

I tried to find out if there is an API but only found it for pi-hole. Is there a similar option for AdGuardHome?

I found this for pi-hole and would like to have a similar option for AdGuardHome. This is super easy as you can just add it as a bookmark to your browser and then you just click on it.

Thanks a lot for any hint.

Cheers,
Chingato

It would be nice to have a way to turn filtering off temporarily for a specific client.

I don't mind doing this via the web interface. I currently edit client's settings and toggle the "Use global settings" off, and then later back on. The problem with this approach is–it is easy to forget to to turn the filtering back on.
