Notis

Give firewall changes a clear follow-up

When a firewall change needs a later check, send its context to Notis and put the follow-up on your calendar.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Quick Add Event

Parses natural language text to quickly create a basic google calendar event with its title, date, and time, suitable for simple scheduling; does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events, and `calendar id` must be valid if not 'primary'.

Why this helps

A firewall rule can be updated in the moment, then the planned verification gets buried in a separate system.

  • Turn a supplied change notice into a simple calendar event.
  • Keep a verification task attached to the operational change.
  • Use natural language to describe the event.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudflare and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a quick calendar follow-up from the Cloudflare firewall change details supplied with the request.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real change notice and check that the event date and title are correct.

Questions about this workflow

Does this trigger when a firewall rule changes in Cloudflare?

No. Cloudflare trigger events are not available here. An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts the automation.

Can Quick Add add attendees or recurring events?

No. Google Calendar Quick Add is for a basic event and does not support adding attendees or creating recurring events.

What should the webhook request include?

Supply the change context and the date and time you want Notis to use, expressed clearly enough to create a basic event.
