Turn firewall requests into configured firewalls

Move a well-specified network access request from inbox to a DigitalOcean firewall.

Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

Action

Create New Firewall

Tool to create a new firewall. use when you need to define a firewall name and custom rules (requires at least one inbound and one outbound rule).

Why this helps

Firewall changes require precise details, and vague requests can sit in email without a clear next step.

  • Keep access requests from getting lost
  • Require explicit inbound and outbound rules in the request
  • Reduce manual transfer of rule details

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent Mail and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for firewall requests.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a firewall only when a new email clearly states its name and at least one inbound and one outbound rule.
  • 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real firewall request.

Questions about this workflow

Can an email with only inbound rules create a firewall?

The action requires at least one inbound and one outbound rule, so the instruction should treat either missing rule set as incomplete.

Does the workflow decide which ports to allow?

It should use rules explicitly stated in the email. The event list does not provide an independent policy source.
