Instant Infrastructure Setup for Critical Incidents

Critical incident reported? Notis creates a Cloudflare zone immediately so your team can set up incident response infrastructure without waiting.

Trigger

Issue Created Trigger

Triggered when a new issue is created.

Action

Create Zone

Tool to create a new zone. use after confirming account id when adding a domain to cloudflare.

Why this helps

Critical incidents require fast infrastructure setup, but manual zone creation delays incident response and pulls focus from the actual problem.

  • Incident response infrastructure is ready in seconds
  • Team focuses on fixing the issue, not infrastructure
  • Clear incident tracking in Linear and Cloudflare
  • Faster incident resolution

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Cloudflare to Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis: 'When an issue is created with the incident label and priority is urgent, create a Cloudflare zone for incident response.' Use Issue Created as the trigger.
  • 3Use 'incident' label and 'urgent' priority consistently for critical issues.
  • 4Test by creating a critical incident issue and confirming Notis creates the zone.

Questions about this workflow

What domain should the emergency zone use?

You specify during setup: 'Use incident-[timestamp].example.com' or 'Use the domain from the issue title.'

Can I limit this to specific types of incidents?

Yes. Tell Notis: 'Only create zones if the issue title contains Infrastructure or DDoS.'

How do I clean up the emergency zone after the incident?

Close the incident issue in Linear and create an automation to delete the zone.
