Why this helps
WAF rule updates require switching to Cloudflare and manually editing lists, creating errors and slowing down security responses.
- WAF rules are updated without leaving Linear
- No manual Cloudflare editing, fewer errors
- Rules can be updated instantly during incidents
- Clear comment-based audit trail
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Cloudflare to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a comment is posted on a WAF issue, extract any IPs or rules and add them to the corresponding Cloudflare WAF list.' Use Comment Received as the trigger.
- 3Establish a comment format for WAF updates (e.g., 'Add: 192.168.1.1' or 'Block: 10.0.0.0/8').
- 4Test by commenting a new IP in a WAF issue and confirming Notis updates the list in Cloudflare.
Questions about this workflow
Can I add multiple IPs in one comment?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'Extract all IPs listed, one per line, and add them to the WAF list.'
What if I comment by mistake?
You can edit the comment in Linear and Notis can re-sync, or manually remove it from Cloudflare.
Can I remove IPs with a comment too?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'If a comment starts with Remove: , delete that IP from the WAF list.'
