Turn Device Security Alerts into Access Rules
When a security alert calls for a defined access restriction, send its details to Notis and create a Zone Lockdown rule in Cloudflare.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Zone Lockdown Rule
Creates a rule to restrict access to URL patterns to specified IP addresses.
Why this helps
Writing an access restriction during an incident can require switching tools and re-entering details under pressure.
- Use an incoming security alert to start a defined access restriction.
- Keep the target zone, URL pattern and allowed ranges explicit.
- Get a run report to support incident follow-up.
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 qualifying alert should create a Zone Lockdown rule using the supplied zone, URL pattern and allowed IP or CIDR ranges.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example after confirming the zone identifier and restriction details.
