Why this helps
Stale DNS records linger because cleanup requests are separated from the system where records live.
- Requires both identifiers before deletion
- Keeps cleanup requests auditable
- Reduces accidental record selection
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation for approved DNS cleanup tasks.
- 3Tell Notis to delete a record only when the task includes confirmed zone and record IDs and explicit approval.
- 4Pick Todoist New Task Created and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one approved cleanup task.
Questions about this workflow
Can it delete by hostname alone?
Require the zone and record identifiers so the intended record is unambiguous.
Can a deleted record be restored automatically?
No. Capture the existing record details in the task before deletion if rollback information is needed.
