Trigger

Action

Create Custom Image

Tool to create a new custom image by providing a url to a linux vm image. use when you need to import a vm image into digitalocean after specifying name, url, distribution, and region.

Why this helps

Image imports are easy to delay when the source URL and image metadata are spread across messages.

  • Capture the import details in the request flow.
  • Avoid retyping image metadata into the console.
  • Report incomplete image requests clearly.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the custom image creation outcome.
  • 3Pick the notis_webhook trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real request containing name, URL, distribution, and region.

Questions about this workflow

What information is required?

The request should include an image name, source URL, distribution, and region.

Can the URL be left unspecified?

No. The action imports an image from a provided URL, so an absent URL should be reported.
