Action
Delete Zone

Why this helps
Retired products leave behind Cloudflare zones that create confusion and clutter. Cleanup never happens because it's not tracked.
- DNS infrastructure stays lean and current
- No confusion about what zones are actually active
- Clear alignment: Linear project status mirrors Cloudflare zones
- Reduced attack surface from retired infrastructure
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Cloudflare to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When an issue labeled decommission is closed, delete its associated Cloudflare zone.' Use Issue Updated as the trigger.
- 3Create and use a 'decommission' label for product or service retirement issues.
- 4Test by closing a decommissioning issue and confirming Notis deletes the zone from Cloudflare.
Questions about this workflow
What if the zone has active DNS records?
Notis can check for active records before deletion. Tell it: 'Warn if the zone has DNS records and ask for confirmation before deleting.'
How does Notis know which zone to delete?
You specify during setup: 'Extract the domain from the issue title' or 'Look for Zone: in the description.'
Can I keep the zone but mark it as read-only?
Yes. Use an automation to update the zone settings instead of deleting it.
