Look up DNS records from a chat request

Check a domain's DNS records without breaking your troubleshooting flow to search for a separate lookup tool.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

DNS Lookup

Tool to retrieve dns records for a specified domain. use when you need dns record details for troubleshooting or validation.

Why this helps

When a domain issue comes up in chat, switching tools to gather basic DNS details interrupts the investigation.

  • Retrieve DNS records for a supplied domain.
  • Keep the lookup result with the request that prompted it.
  • Reduce context switching during domain troubleshooting.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and Api ninjas once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis and give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to look up DNS records for the domain in the incoming request.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request containing a domain you want to inspect.

Questions about this workflow

What information should the request include?

Include the domain name you want checked. The action retrieves DNS records for that domain.

Does this diagnose or fix a DNS problem?

No. It retrieves records that can help with troubleshooting; it does not change DNS settings or establish the cause of an issue.
