Notis

Start firewall setup from a CMS launch request

Keep infrastructure preparation tied to the launch request, with the rules defined before provisioning.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create New Firewall

Creates a cloud firewall with custom traffic rules.

Why this helps

Firewall setup requires careful details that can be scattered across launch notes and infrastructure checklists.

  • Collect firewall setup requests in the launch workflow.
  • Require explicit inbound and outbound rules before creating a firewall.
  • Get a report for the infrastructure follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that requests firewall creation only with a confirmed name and at least one approved inbound and outbound rule.
  • 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger and configure Agility CMS to send qualifying launch requests.
  • 4Choose where reports go, then test with one real request using reviewed rules.

Questions about this workflow

Will this infer firewall rules from a content change?

No. The request or prompt must supply the rules. A CMS publish event does not define network access requirements.

Can this attach the firewall to a droplet?

The listed action creates a firewall. Attachment behavior is not part of this action, so the automation should report the creation result only.
