Look Up a DigitalOcean DNS Record from a Webhook

Send a record review request to Notis and get the specified DNS record details in the run report, ready for your next decision.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Retrieve Domain Record

Tool to retrieve a specific dns record for a domain by its record id. use when you have the domain name and record id to fetch record details.

Why this helps

DNS details can be tedious to find when a record id and the system that stores it are far from the incoming request.

  • Look up a specific record from a request.
  • Use the known domain name and record id to retrieve record details.
  • Keep results close to the request in a chosen Notis 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 the DNS record identified by the domain name and record id supplied with the request.
  • 4Pick an HTTP webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one request containing a real domain name and record id.

Questions about this workflow

What information must be in the request?

Provide both the domain name and the record id so Notis can retrieve the intended record.

Will the lookup change the record?

No. This workflow retrieves record details. Updating or deleting a record requires a separate action.
