Provision backup storage when a deal environment needs it
Make a specific storage request actionable while the environment and deal context are still in view.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create New Block Storage Volume
Creates a new block storage volume.
Why this helps
Backup storage requests can be delayed when the needed size, region, or filesystem details are scattered across conversations.
- Turn a complete storage request into a volume.
- Catch missing storage details before provisioning.
- Keep the originating environment context in the report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Deal Backup Volume.
- 3Tell Notis to create a volume only when the request includes its name, size, filesystem, and region, and to confirm regional volume support first.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and verify the volume details.
Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow pick a volume region from an Affinity deal?
Only when the webhook request supplies the region. No Affinity trigger or region lookup is included.
What details should I provide?
Provide a volume name, size, filesystem, and region, and confirm that the region supports volumes.
