Notis

Create a resource tag from a verified request

Send a tag request to Notis. Abstract checks the requester’s email, and DigitalOcean creates the tag so your team can organize resources with it.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create New Tag

Creates a tag to organize and group resources.

Why this helps

Small organization requests are easy to forget, leaving teams to revisit DigitalOcean later and create tags by hand.

  • Handle lightweight organization requests without a manual console visit
  • Validate the requester email before creating the tag
  • Use a tag name supplied in the request

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 validate the requester's email with Abstract and create the tag using the supplied tag name.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request using a valid tag name.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating the tag assign it to resources?

No. This workflow creates the tag. Assigning an existing tag to resources is a separate DigitalOcean action.

What should I include in the webhook request?

Include the requester email and the tag name. The tag name must pass DigitalOcean validation.
