Create DigitalOcean volumes from Jira storage requests

Keep storage requests in Jira and reduce the manual steps to provision a volume.

Trigger

New Issue

Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.

Action

Create New Block Storage Volume

Tool to create a new block storage volume. use when you need to provision persistent block storage after confirming the target region supports volumes. example: "create a 100 gib ext4 backup volume named 'db-backup' in nyc1."

Why this helps

Volume requests can be delayed while configuration details are retyped and the region is checked separately.

  • Cut down manual entry for volume provisioning.
  • Keep the request and provisioning report connected.
  • Make missing volume details visible before action.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and enter a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe how to use a new issue to request a volume with its name, size, filesystem, and region, and to check that the region supports volumes.
  • 4Pick the Jira New Issue trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real storage request issue.

Questions about this workflow

What should a storage request include?

Include the volume name, size, filesystem, and region. The supported action description also calls for confirming that the target region supports volumes.

Can the workflow handle incomplete requests?

Tell Notis in the prompt to identify missing details in its run report rather than guessing values.
