Notis

Create a firewall from a parsed security policy

Keep firewall setup grounded in the policy details that were actually parsed, with missing rules called out before creation.

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

Security policies can sit in documents while a team manually translates requirements into cloud firewall rules.

  • Require both inbound and outbound rules before creation.
  • Catch incomplete policy details before a cloud change.
  • Keep a report of the request and outcome.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airparser and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to create the firewall only when the name and at least one inbound and one outbound rule are specified; report any missing rule details.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real parsed firewall policy.

Questions about this workflow

What rule requirements does the action impose?

The firewall needs at least one inbound rule and one outbound rule, along with a firewall name and custom rules.

Will the workflow invent rules if the policy is incomplete?

No. Instruct Notis to identify missing rules and request clarification rather than fill them in.
