Validate DNS request contacts before adding a record
A request can include the contact details to check and the DNS record to create. Notis validates the contact details with Addressfinder, then uses the supplied zone and record information in Cloudflare.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create DNS record
Create a DNS record that makes live changes to a zone.
Why this helps
DNS requests often arrive with context spread across messages, leaving the operator to check contacts and enter the change separately.
- Keep contact checks alongside the submitted DNS request.
- Create a record from the zone and record details provided in the request.
- Receive a report with the validation and action outcome.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Addressfinder and Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to validate the request's contact details, then create the specified DNS record in the supplied zone if the checks pass.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real DNS request to test the flow.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow choose DNS values for me?
No. The webhook request must provide the zone and DNS record details. Notis can use the request and connected app data, but it should not invent record values.
What does Addressfinder check?
Use it to check the submitted address, email, phone, or data quality details. It does not verify authorization to change a DNS zone.
Can I use this for an approval process?
The described trigger is a webhook. If you need an approval gate, have the system sending the webhook enforce that gate before it starts the automation.
