Clean Up Retired Campaign DNS Records

When a campaign domain record is no longer needed, send a retirement request with its exact identifiers and let Notis remove that record in Cloudflare.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Delete DNS Record

Deletes a DNS record from a zone.

Why this helps

Retired campaign records can linger because DNS cleanup is easy to miss after a launch ends.

  • Tie DNS cleanup to an explicit retirement request.
  • Require the zone and record identifiers before deletion.
  • Reduce forgotten records after campaigns end.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveCampaign and Cloudflare in the Notis portal once.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to delete only the specified DNS record after confirming the request includes both its zone and record identifiers.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and configure the ActiveCampaign process or connected service to send its retirement request to that webhook.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real retired record request.

Questions about this workflow

What prevents deleting the wrong record?

The request must identify both the zone and the specific record ID. Notis should skip deletion if either is missing or unclear.

Can this remove every record for a retired domain?

This action deletes a specific DNS record. Each record to remove needs to be identified explicitly.
