Why this helps
A useful DNS discussion can trigger a time-consuming search across Cloudflare zones before anyone can respond.
- Start a focused zone review from a new file comment.
- Surface likely zone matches based on the details in the comment and file.
- Keep the result in a run report for follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for DNS discussion triage.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the new comment and related file, list Cloudflare zones, and report likely matches without changing DNS.
- 4Choose New File Comment Added as the trigger and select the DNS plan file.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real comment that names a domain or zone.
