Create a block storage volume from AnyDB
Move approved storage requests from a shared database into DigitalOcean without retyping the volume details.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create New Block Storage Volume
Creates a new block storage volume.
Why this helps
Storage setup gets delayed when volume specifications are recorded in one place and provisioned in another.
- Use a single request as the starting point for volume provisioning.
- Reduce configuration transcription.
- Keep a report of the provisioning run.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a volume from an approved request using its name, size, filesystem, and region.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report destination.
- 5Test with one real approved storage request and check the report.
Questions about this workflow
What information should the request include?
Provide the volume name, size, filesystem, and region, and confirm the target region supports volumes.
Can the workflow choose a region if one is missing?
Only if you provide a default in the instruction. Otherwise, ask Notis to report the missing region instead of creating a volume.
