Pull load balancer context into the request that needs it

When a deployment or capacity question comes up, a webhook can start a fresh load balancer inventory and bring the results to your report channel.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

List All Load Balancers

Tool to list all load balancer instances on your account. use when you need a paginated overview of load balancers after authentication.

Why this helps

Checking load balancer state manually interrupts deployment planning and follow-up.

  • Get inventory in response to a specific operational question
  • Reduce repeated cloud console searches
  • Make load balancer context easier to share

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to list load balancers, handle pagination if needed, and summarize the returned inventory without inferring traffic or health metrics.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test by sending one real load balancer inventory request to the webhook.

Questions about this workflow

Does the inventory include traffic metrics?

The listed action provides load balancer inventory. Do not assume it returns traffic or health metrics.

Can this workflow create a load balancer?

No. It is an inventory lookup. Creating a load balancer requires a separate action and confirmed configuration.

What information should a webhook request include?

Include the operational question or scope so Notis can shape a useful summary of the returned inventory.
