Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List Database Options
Tool to list valid database engine, version, region, and size options. use when configuring a new managed database cluster.
Why this helps
Planning a managed database can stall when someone has to stop and look up the valid configuration options first.
- Keep supported database options easy to find.
- Reduce lookup work when a new cluster is being planned.
- Provide a recurring reference in your chosen report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve valid database engines, versions, regions, and sizes and summarize them.
- 4Pick a recurring Notis schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one run and check that the returned options are clear.
Questions about this workflow
Does retrieving options create a database cluster?
No. It only retrieves valid configuration options. Creating a cluster is a separate action that requires a name, engine, version, region, size, and node count.
Are these options a guarantee that a cluster can be provisioned in every combination?
Use the returned options when planning and confirm the specific configuration details before requesting cluster creation.
