Trigger

Action

Create DNS Record

Tool to create a new DNS record in a Cloudflare zone. Use when you need to add a record (A, CNAME, TXT, MX, etc.) to a specified zone.

Why this helps

DNS requests buried in email can be easy to miss or implement with the wrong zone or value.

  • Reduce manual copying from email into Cloudflare.
  • Check the zone and requested record details before creating a record.
  • Keep routine DNS requests moving without switching tools.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent Mail and Cloudflare api key once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a name and prompt in the portal or from any Notis channel.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to interpret incoming DNS requests, verify the zone and record details, and create only clearly specified records.
  • 4Pick the Agent Mail New Email Received trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real DNS request email and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

Will it act on every email?

The instruction can ask Notis to act only on emails that clearly request a DNS change and to skip unclear or unrelated messages.

What if the zone or record values are unclear?

Tell Notis to request clarification or report the missing details instead of creating a record.
