Create New Tag
Tool to create a new tag. use when you need to organize resources by grouping them under a custom tag. ensure the tag name passes validation before calling. example: "create a new tag named analytics".
Why this helps
Teams lose time when resource naming and grouping conventions are handled inconsistently.
- Reduce manual tag setup
- Use the requested tag name consistently
- Keep organization requests visible in run reports
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 tag requests.
- 3Tell Notis to create a tag from a new email only when the requested tag name is explicit and passes DigitalOcean validation.
- 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real resource organization email.
Questions about this workflow
Does this tag resources too?
No. This workflow creates a tag. Assigning a tag to resources is a separate action.
What if the requested tag name is invalid?
The instruction should report the validation issue rather than attempt to create an invalid tag.
