Notis

Retire DNS records from approved AnyDB requests

Centralize DNS retirement requests in AnyDB and have Notis act on the exact record only when the request is approved and identifiable.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Delete DNS Record

Delete a DNS record immediately; this action is irreversible.

Why this helps

DNS cleanup requests can linger, while deleting the wrong record can disrupt a service.

  • Keep retirement rationale and approval with the request.
  • Require exact zone and record identifiers before deletion.
  • Reduce forgotten cleanup tasks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for DNS retirement.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to verify approval and both identifiers, then delete only the specified DNS record.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and configure the approved request to start it.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one real request for a record approved for removal.

Questions about this workflow

Will this delete a whole zone?

No. This workflow uses the delete DNS record action, which requires a zone and record ID and targets one record.

What if the approval or identifiers are missing?

Tell Notis to report the missing approval or identifiers and stop without deleting anything.
