Handle a specific key request without losing its scope
Use a private request to start key provisioning, while keeping the one-time secret in an approved secure destination.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Create API Key
Tool to create a new api key with specified permissions. use when you have a valid digicert user id and need to generate a new key. note the api key appears only once; save it securely.
Why this helps
A private credential request can be easy to overlook or leave underspecified amid daily conversations.
- Keep a key request tied to its stated user and permission scope.
- Reduce manual reminders for credential setup.
- Protect the one-time secret by keeping it out of Slack.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and DigiCert to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to create a key only for an authorized DM request specifying a valid user and permissions, and route the one-time key to an approved secure store.
- 3Select Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one authorized example and verify the secure handling path.
Questions about this workflow
Is a DM alone sufficient authorization?
The request should be authorized and specify a valid user and the permissions for the key.
How should the generated key be shared?
The one-time key should go to an approved secure destination, never to Slack.
