Register a domain for a portfolio initiative
Make domain setup a clear, trackable action when a portfolio initiative needs a new web address.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create New Domain
Adds a new domain to DNS management.
Why this helps
Domain setup can get separated from the initiative that requested it, leaving ownership and next steps unclear.
- Create a domain from a specific request.
- Optionally assign an IP address during creation.
- Keep the initiative context in the run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Portfolio Initiative Domain.
- 3Tell Notis to create the requested domain and assign an A record only when the request includes the domain name and, if needed, the IP address.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real domain request and verify the domain.
Questions about this workflow
Does creating the domain configure every DNS record?
No. This action creates a domain and optionally assigns an IP address. Use a separate domain record action for additional DNS records.
Where does the domain name come from?
Include the intended domain name in the webhook request along with the related initiative context.
