When a user signs up with a paid account, I need to be able to create a subdomain and subdirectory for that domain automatically. I already know how to create a subdomain following these two tutorials: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/networking/dns/how-to/add-subdomain/ https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-18-04
but I need to make this process automatic so I’m not doing it manually for each customer. Is there a way to do this in DigitalOcean? I’m using Apache, PHP(Laravel), MySQL, and react.js as my stack.

I read a bit more on how to do this and I suppose I can do everything from the command line. With Laravel, I can execute command line prompts and for settings that needs to be configured in the DO control panel, I can use Doctl from DO as well.
