Remove a retired ruleset rule

Clear obsolete policy safely when its replacement is already in place.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Delete Rule from Ruleset

Tool to delete a specific rule from a ruleset. Use when you need to remove an outdated or incorrect rule from an account or zone ruleset after confirming IDs.

Why this helps

Old rules make security policies harder to understand and can conflict with newer controls.

  • Reduce policy clutter
  • Remove known obsolete controls
  • Document what was deleted

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notis to 0CodeKit and Cloudflare api key once.
  • 2Create an automation named Retire ruleset rule.
  • 3Describe that Notis should confirm the ruleset and rule IDs, check for references, then delete the approved rule.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a retired rule in a safe scope and review the report.

Questions about this workflow

Can it check references first?
