Trigger
New Coda Document Trigger
Triggers when a new Coda document is created.
Action
Create New Droplet
Tool to create a new droplet. use when you need to provision a vm with name, region, size, and image.
Why this helps
New infrastructure requests sit in project docs while someone manually recreates them in a cloud console.
- Reduce manual cloud console work
- Start infrastructure setup from project documentation
- Keep provisioning tied to the project record
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Coda and DigitalOcean in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named for new project server provisioning.
- 3Tell Notis to read the new document and create a droplet only when it contains an explicit server name, region, size, and image.
- 4Pick the New Coda Document trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project document and review the droplet result.
Questions about this workflow
What details must the Coda document include?
Provide an explicit droplet name, DigitalOcean region, size, and image or image slug.
Can this run for every new document?
Yes, but the instruction should tell Notis to act only when the document contains complete server parameters.
