Delete Control D rules from Zendesk cleanup requests

Finish policy cleanup with an exact rule deletion tied to the support record.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

Triggers when a new ticket is created in a specified Zendesk view.

Action

Delete Profile Rule by Rule ID

Tool to delete a specific custom rule by its ID within a profile. Use after confirming profile_id and rule_id.

Why this helps

Cleanup requests stall when rule identifiers and approval are handled in separate tools.

  • Use exact identifiers
  • Reduce accidental deletions
  • Close cleanup tickets faster

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Control D in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation with the approval and rule ID requirements.
  • 3Tell Notis to delete the specified Control D rule by ID only when the Zendesk ticket confirms it is obsolete.
  • 4Pick New Zendesk Ticket and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one approved cleanup ticket.

Questions about this workflow

What if the rule ID is missing?

Ask Notis to report the ticket and make no change.
