Add a DigitalOcean DNS record from chat

Translate a specific DNS request into a record creation action with less console hopping.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Domain Record

Tool to create a new dns record for a domain. use after confirming domain exists and record specifics.

Why this helps

A DNS change can be delayed when record details are scattered across follow-up messages.

  • Keep record changes anchored to the original request.
  • Remind the team to confirm the domain exists.
  • Report the outcome for easier follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe when to create a domain record.
  • 3Pick the notis_webhook trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real request that names an existing domain and specifies the record.

Questions about this workflow

Does the domain need to exist first?

Yes. The create record action is for a domain that already exists in DigitalOcean.

What if record details are incomplete?

Have Notis report the missing specifics rather than filling in DNS values by assumption.
