Create a managed database when an environment is approved
Turn a well-specified database request into a provisioned cluster without losing its deal context.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Database Cluster
Creates a managed database cluster.
Why this helps
Database provisioning can stall when engine, version, size, or region decisions have not been gathered in one place.
- Provision from a complete database specification.
- Keep deal environment context with the run report.
- Surface missing configuration details before creation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Deal Environment Database.
- 3Tell Notis to create a database cluster only when the request supplies its name, engine, version, region, size, and node count.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and verify the created cluster.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis select a database version based on Affinity notes?
The webhook request must provide the intended configuration. Use DigitalOcean's database options action separately to check valid choices.
Does the workflow create the cluster automatically?
Yes, when a webhook request triggers it and includes all required details.
