Create a launch DNS record from a CMS request

Move a launch detail into DNS setup without switching tools to re-enter the request.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Domain Record

Creates a DNS record for a domain.

Why this helps

DNS changes often live in a separate checklist, making launch details easy to miss or mistype.

  • Carry launch DNS details from the request into the infrastructure task.
  • Require an existing domain and complete record details before acting.
  • Send a run report for a quick review of the result.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that creates a DNS record only when the request includes an existing domain and complete record details.
  • 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger and configure Agility CMS to send the launch request.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with one real DNS request for an existing domain.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create the domain too?

No. The domain must already exist in DigitalOcean. This action creates a record within that domain.

What information must the request include?

Provide the domain name and the record specifics required for the intended DNS change. Do not let the automation invent a record value.
