Why this helps
Temporary WAF lists often remain after the operational incident that created them is closed.
- Reduces obsolete security objects
- Requires incident closure context
- Creates a clear cleanup record
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 7shifts and Cloudflare in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Retired incident WAF cleanup.
- 3Tell Notis to delete a WAF list only when the webhook confirms closure, no filters reference it, and supplies the account and list ids.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one closed incident.
Questions about this workflow
Does this verify filter references automatically?
Only if the required reference information is supplied or available to the automation; otherwise it should stop and report the gap.
Can it delete list items instead?
No. It deletes the WAF list itself.
