Handle urgent Bunnycdn refresh requests from Slack DMs
Send Notis a direct request with the URL and refresh intent, and let it take care of the targeted cache purge.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Purge URL
Tool to purge a specific url from the bunnycdn cache. use when you need to invalidate a resource immediately after updating it.
Why this helps
A time-sensitive CDN request in a DM can get lost among other conversations or rely on someone's memory.
- Provides a lightweight path for urgent targeted refresh requests.
- Keeps the purge scope to the URL named in the DM.
- Avoids switching tools to perform a routine invalidation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Bunnycdn to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or ask Notis for a DM-based workflow.
- 3Write one instruction that purges a Bunnycdn URL only when a DM clearly requests an urgent refresh and includes the URL.
- 4Select the direct message trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test by sending a clearly labeled request for a safe test URL.
Questions about this workflow
Does this match channel messages too?
No. This workflow uses the direct message trigger, which is distinct from channel messages.
How do I avoid unintended purges?
Make the instruction require both an explicit refresh request and a specific Bunnycdn URL.
