Create a VPC from a network planning request
Send a network planning request with an IP and the VPC details. Abstract enriches the address, while DigitalOcean creates the private network in the requested region.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create New VPC
Creates a private network in a region to isolate resources.
Why this helps
Network planning details and IP context often live in separate places, making it easy to lose the reason behind a new private network.
- Keep IP context alongside the network request
- Create a VPC from details provided in the request
- Make network provisioning easier to repeat
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to enrich the supplied IP with Abstract and create a VPC using the name, region, and description in the request.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request that specifies a VPC name and region.
Questions about this workflow
Does the IP determine the VPC region automatically?
The workflow can use the IP enrichment as context, but the request should provide the region to create so the intended location is clear.
What does this workflow create?
It creates a new DigitalOcean VPC using the supplied name, region, and description. The webhook request should include those details.
