Use fresh abuse reports to review an existing rule
Notis can check the report history for the IPs you specify, then update a known rule when your conditions are met.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Update Rule in Ruleset
Updates or reorders a rule in a ruleset.
Why this helps
Existing firewall rules can outlive the evidence that justified them, leaving teams unsure when a change is warranted.
- Use recent report history as an input to rule review.
- Change only a rule whose ID and ruleset you provide.
- Get a run report explaining which criteria were met.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abuselpdb and Cloudflare api key once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Specify the IPs to review, the report criteria, the ruleset and rule IDs, and the exact update to apply when criteria are met.
- 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real example and inspect the updated rule.
Questions about this workflow
Can the automation select a rule by itself?
Provide the ruleset and rule IDs and the intended update. The action updates a specific rule, so Notis should not guess which one to change.
What does Abuselpdb contribute?
Notis can use the abuse report history for the IPs you specify as context for the conditions in your instruction.
Can I set this to run weekly?
Yes. Select the recurring schedule trigger and choose the cadence that fits your review process.
