I noticed that in the case of nouns, we can use either of these:

  1. Ｎのとおりに
  2. Ｎどおりに

But this seems to be case-specific.

When or in which circumstances do we use the latter?

question
grammar
When do we use 〜どおりに instead of 〜のとおりに after nouns?
You can use “のとおりに” after any noun phrase. However, it may sound slightly
awkward when used after a short noun. This form can be analyzed as:

> “Nのとおりに" = 名詞 “N” + 助詞 “の” + 名詞 “とおり” + 助詞 “に”

“どおりに” is used like a postposition. Usually it is used after a short noun.
Analysis:

> “Nどおりに” = 名詞 “N” + 名詞 “どおり” + 助詞 “に”
