Close-the-Loop Cloudflare Cert Renewal Verification

For each open cert-renewal ClickUp task, re-checks the live Cloudflare certificate and, once a fresh expiry date is detected, auto-closes the task and posts confirmation to Slack.

What it does

This workflow verifies that renewals actually happened. It walks every open renewal task in ClickUp, re-queries the live certificate in Cloudflare, and decides whether the work is done: a newly issued cert with a pushed-out expiry means the task is complete, while a cert that is still old and past its due date gets escalated again.

When to use it

Pair it with any sweep that opens renewal tasks. It removes the manual step of an engineer confirming the new cert is live and tidying up the tracker, and it catches renewals that were marked done but never actually deployed.

How it works

  1. 1A daily schedule starts the verification pass.
  2. 2The workflow lists open cert-renewal tasks in ClickUp and parses the hostname from each.
  3. 3For every task it fetches the current certificate from Cloudflare and compares the live expiry against the date recorded on the task.
  4. 4A branch routes each task: fresh expiry detected, or still stale.
  5. 5Verified tasks are closed automatically; stale-and-overdue tasks are re-flagged. Either outcome is posted to Slack as a confirmation or a re-alert.
