Ad blocking with Raspberry Pi and Pi-hole

Any chance you can share that shortcut? I currently have a bookmark that my roommate can hit, but a shortcut would be better.

I use a modified version of this with hard coded times so there is no user input: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/2904

I do the same and use the shortcut at least once a day for things I don't want to permanently unblock but might need occasionally. I set it via a shortlink on bit.ly so it's easy for people to remember/bookmark.

It points to ..../admin/api.php?disable=300&auth=authkey

300: Time in seconds to disable it.

Auth key: You need to have a password set for the Pi-hole installation, and the API key is the salted version of that password. You can find it as the value for the key WEBPASSWORD in your /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf file.
