Create DigitalOcean droplets from Jira requests
Keep server requests in Jira and let Notis handle the provisioning handoff.
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 Droplet
Tool to create a new droplet. use when you need to provision a vm with name, region, size, and image.
Why this helps
Infrastructure requests can sit in Jira while someone manually copies configuration details into DigitalOcean.
- Reduce manual copying between Jira and DigitalOcean.
- Use the issue description as the request context for provisioning.
- Send run reports to a channel your team already checks.
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 give it a name and prompt.
- 3Describe how Notis should use the new issue to request a droplet, including the required name, region, size, and image details.
- 4Pick the Jira New Issue trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real issue that contains the required droplet details.
Questions about this workflow
What needs to be in the Jira issue?
Include the droplet name, region, size, and image. Notis needs those details to make a grounded provisioning request.
Does every new Jira issue create a droplet?
The trigger fires for new issues in the configured project. Describe in the automation prompt how Notis should recognize an infrastructure request and handle issues that lack required details.
