Track Block Volume Inventory with Notis

See your block volume inventory in a recurring report, with less manual checking and fewer details to keep in your head.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List All Volumes

Tool to list all block storage volumes available on your account. use when you need to retrieve volumes and optionally filter by name and region.

Why this helps

Persistent storage can be easy to overlook when infrastructure checks happen irregularly or across several dashboards.

  • Make block volume review a predictable habit.
  • Retrieve volumes with optional name and region filters.
  • See the inventory in a selected run 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 list block volumes and summarize their names, regions, and returned details.
  • 4Pick a recurring Notis schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one run and review the resulting volume report.

Questions about this workflow

Can this workflow delete unused volumes?

No. It lists volumes for review. Deleting a volume is a separate, permanent action that requires confirming its id.

Can the inventory focus on a particular region or name?

The action supports optional filtering by name and region. Include a filter in your instruction if you want a narrower report.
