Notis

Delete a DNS record from an approved email

Handle deliberate DNS cleanup requests with the right scope and a clear report.

Trigger

New Outlook Message

Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Delete DNS Record

Tool to delete a DNS record. Use when you need to remove a specific DNS record from a zone after confirming both zone and record IDs.

Why this helps

Old records can remain active because removal requests wait for manual console work or lack the exact IDs needed.

  • Reduce lingering records
  • Require precise deletion scope
  • Keep removal evidence

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Cloudflare api key in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that deletes only the record and zone explicitly approved in the message.
  • 3Pick New Outlook Message as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one approved cleanup request.

Questions about this workflow

What identifiers are needed?

The request should identify both the Cloudflare zone and the DNS record to remove.

Can it delete several records?

Tell Notis to process each explicitly listed record and report each result.
