Check Cloudflare DNS after a runbook update

When your DNS runbook changes, get a fresh view of the relevant Cloudflare records alongside a short report of what to review.

Trigger

New File Version Uploaded

Triggers when a new file version is uploaded to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new versions are detected.

Action

List DNS Records

Tool to list DNS records for a given Cloudflare zone.

Why this helps

Runbooks and live DNS can drift apart, leaving founders to remember to check the provider after documentation changes.

  • Prompt a DNS review when the source runbook changes.
  • Get a current record list in the run report.
  • Surface missing zone information instead of guessing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Cloudflare api key once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the Cloudflare zone from the updated runbook, list that zone's DNS records, and report items that need human review without changing records.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Version Uploaded trigger for the runbook file and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real runbook version and confirm the report names the intended zone.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow change DNS?

No. It uses the List DNS Records action to gather current records for a report; the instruction should ask Notis to leave records unchanged.

What if the runbook does not identify a Cloudflare zone?

Instruct Notis to report that the zone is missing and not query or modify a guessed zone.

What starts the review?

The New File Version Uploaded trigger, event 2379, monitors a specific Box file for a new version.
