Turn WhatsApp DNS requests into Cloudflare records
Capture the domain, record type, name, and value from a WhatsApp request, then create the requested DNS record in Cloudflare.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create DNS record
Tool to create a new dns record within a specific zone. use after obtaining the zone id to programmatically add dns entries.
Why this helps
DNS requests arrive in chat, where details can be missed or copied incorrectly before anyone gets to Cloudflare.
- Keep DNS requests and their record details together.
- Reduce manual copying between WhatsApp and Cloudflare.
- Route incomplete requests for clarification instead of guessing.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 2chat and Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Describe that Notis should use a WhatsApp request supplied to its webhook to create a DNS record only when the zone and record details are present; ask for clarification if details are missing.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request containing a confirmed zone ID and DNS record details.
Questions about this workflow
Does this run automatically when any WhatsApp message arrives?
No. It starts when an HTTP request reaches the Notis webhook. The request must supply the WhatsApp message or its relevant details.
What if the message does not include a zone ID or record details?
Instruct Notis to request clarification or report the missing details. The create-record action requires a specific zone and DNS record information.
