Clear a DNS record when the cutover is called off

A canceled cutover can trigger cleanup of the exact record you named, with the run result sent to your chosen report channel.

Trigger

Event Canceled or Deleted

Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.

Action

Delete DNS Record

Tool to delete a DNS record. Use when you need to remove a specific DNS record from a zone after confirming both zone and record IDs.

Why this helps

Canceled infrastructure plans can leave temporary DNS records behind after the team has moved on.

  • Connects cancellation to a defined DNS cleanup task.
  • Targets the zone and record ID specified in the instruction.
  • Keeps a report of the attempted cleanup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Cloudflare api key once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe which canceled cutover should trigger deletion and provide the zone and record IDs in one instruction.
  • 4Pick Event Canceled or Deleted, choose where run reports go, then test with one real canceled cutover example.

Questions about this workflow

Does the cancellation trigger provide the Cloudflare record ID?

No. It returns minimal calendar data. Supply the zone and record IDs in your instruction or another available source before relying on deletion.

Can this delete any DNS record automatically?

The instruction should identify the specific record to remove. Review the run report to confirm the intended cleanup.
