Apply a defined firewall setup to an approved environment
Turn an explicit environment approval into a firewall request with the rules captured up front.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create New Firewall
Creates a cloud firewall with custom traffic rules.
Why this helps
Firewall setup can be delayed or miscommunicated when inbound and outbound requirements are not gathered together.
- Require rule details before provisioning.
- Tie the request to its approved environment context.
- Reduce manual back-and-forth for firewall setup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Approved Environment Firewall.
- 3Tell Notis to create the firewall only when approval is stated and the request contains its name plus at least one inbound and one outbound rule.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and check the created firewall.
