Notis

Add current ruleset context to an investigation request

When an investigation needs Cloudflare configuration context, have Notis fetch the relevant ruleset and report it with the request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Ruleset

Retrieves the latest version of a ruleset.

Why this helps

Investigations lose momentum when the next person must first locate the configuration being discussed.

  • Attach current ruleset information to an investigation run.
  • Reduce the back and forth needed to identify the relevant configuration.
  • Keep retrieval separate from rule changes.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Addresszen and Cloudflare api key once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the ruleset specified in the investigation request and summarize its current configuration, reporting missing IDs or scope.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and send it when an investigation is opened.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one known ruleset and scope.

Questions about this workflow

Will this determine whether the ruleset caused an issue?

It retrieves the configuration. Any investigation conclusion requires the incident details and relevant evidence to be supplied.

Does it edit the ruleset?

No. It uses the get ruleset action to retrieve current configuration.
