Start a Cloudflare DNS update from a webhook

Use an HTTP request as the cue for a DNS update, with clear instructions for the record and fields to change.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update DNS record

Tool to update an existing dns record within a specific zone. use after confirming both zone and record identifiers; only provided fields are modified.

Why this helps

A system event may signal that DNS needs attention, but manual follow-up can be delayed or forgotten.

  • Start the update from an HTTP request.
  • Keep the desired record change in a plain-language instruction.
  • Send a run report to a channel you check.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3Provide confirmed zone and record identifiers and describe the fields to update.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real HTTP request and verify the intended record update.

Questions about this workflow

Does a webhook create a new record?

This workflow uses the update action and requires an existing DNS record. Use the create action for a new record.

What should the request include?

Include any needed record values and context, and make sure the automation can identify the confirmed zone and record.

Can I send any request format?

The trigger starts from an HTTP request. Ensure your request supplies the information your instruction depends on and test it with a real example.
