Replace Stale Device Endpoint Records
When a device endpoint changes, send the replacement details to Notis and keep the specified Cloudflare record current.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Overwrite DNS Record
Replaces all details of a DNS record.
Why this helps
A changed device endpoint can leave stale DNS details in place until someone remembers to update them.
- Use a reported endpoint change to request a complete record replacement.
- Keep the target record explicit in the instruction.
- Route a run report to a channel you already check.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and Cloudflare api key in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3Describe that a device endpoint change should overwrite the identified DNS record with the supplied replacement details.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real endpoint change and verify the record.
Questions about this workflow
What must the webhook provide?
Provide enough information to identify the zone and record, plus the complete replacement details.
Does this create a record if the target record is missing?
This workflow uses the overwrite action. Define how to handle a missing record in your instruction and verify the behavior in a test run.
