Notis

Get a quick status lookup for one droplet

When you have a droplet ID, a webhook can start a focused lookup and return its current details without a dashboard detour.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Retrieve Existing Droplet

Retrieves a Droplet’s status, specifications, network settings, and other details.

Why this helps

A quick status question can turn into a time-consuming search when the droplet identifier and its details are in different places.

  • Look up one known droplet by ID.
  • Get key returned details in a compact summary.
  • Start the check from an HTTP request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtop and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the DigitalOcean droplet matching the supplied ID and summarize its status and details.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the request includes the correct droplet ID.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow find a droplet by its name?

The retrieve action requires a droplet ID. Use the list droplets action first if you need to discover IDs.

Can this workflow restart a droplet?

No. The available retrieve action reads droplet details and does not restart or change the droplet.
