Create a dedicated Cloudflare ruleset for abuse response

Send a setup request to Notis and use Abuselpdb findings as context while creating a ruleset with the scope and configuration you specify.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Ruleset

Creates a ruleset to control traffic behavior.

Why this helps

Abuse response rules can end up mixed into unrelated configurations, making ownership and review harder.

  • Create a dedicated ruleset for the purpose you define.
  • Use abuse report context to inform the stated configuration.
  • Keep account or zone scope explicit in the request.

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.
  • 3In one instruction, specify which Abuselpdb information to consult and the ruleset name, phase, scope, and configuration to create.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real setup request and review the created ruleset details.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow decide the ruleset scope?

No. Provide whether the ruleset is account or zone scoped and the relevant scope details. Notis should not infer the target.

Does checking Abuselpdb automatically add block rules?

Not unless your instruction specifies the configuration to create. This action creates a ruleset; adding a rule to an existing ruleset is a different action.

What should I send in the webhook request?

Send the setup context your instruction expects, including the target scope and configuration details. Abuselpdb has no native trigger event in this workflow package.
