Make monthly DNS hygiene easier to remember

A simple recurring prompt puts DNS upkeep on the team's radar without another task list to maintain.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Send Message

Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.

Why this helps

Small DNS cleanup tasks accumulate when nobody owns a regular review reminder.

  • Keep DNS maintenance on a regular cadence.
  • Encourage the team to record cleanup candidates.
  • Start the review in a familiar chat.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudflare api key and Telegram once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the monthly DNS review prompt.
  • 3Select a monthly Notis cron trigger and a report channel.
  • 4Test the prompt and confirm the schedule and timezone.

Questions about this workflow

Does the prompt list DNS records automatically?

Only if the automation can access current records through the connected Cloudflare capability. Otherwise it should remind the team to inspect them.

Can I include cleanup criteria?

Yes. State the criteria in the automation instruction or provide them with the information used for the review.
