Trigger

Action

Delete Rule from Ruleset

Tool to delete a specific rule from a ruleset. Use when you need to remove an outdated or incorrect rule from an account or zone ruleset after confirming IDs.

Why this helps

Unused rules remain active because removal requests lose context during cleanup work.

  • Reduce stale policy
  • Require explicit rule identification
  • Create a visible deletion report

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Cloudflare api key in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation for approved rule removals.
  • 3Tell Notis to delete only the identified ruleset rule after checking its scope and ID.
  • 4Choose Task Updated as the trigger and select where reports go.
  • 5Test with a disposable or staging rule.
