Notis

Review DNS records for sites under research

Make DNS changes easier to notice by pairing current records with a baseline you provide.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List DNS Records

Lists DNS records for a zone.

Why this helps

DNS changes can go unnoticed when site research and infrastructure checks happen in different routines.

  • List records for confirmed Cloudflare zones on a schedule.
  • Compare returned records with a user-provided baseline.
  • Call out when no baseline is available instead of claiming drift.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Cloudflare api key once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list records for supplied zone IDs and compare them with the baseline you provide, noting that no history is available unless supplied.
  • 4Pick a notis_cron trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one confirmed zone and a known DNS baseline.

Questions about this workflow

Can Cloudflare's listing alone show historical changes?

No. The listing returns current records. To identify changes over time, provide a baseline or other history for comparison.

Will the workflow change DNS?

No. It lists records and reports comparisons for review.
