Get the domain's mail server records close to the request that prompted the lookup.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find Domain MX Records
Retrieves a domain's mail server records.
Why this helps
Checking mail routing details can pull you away from the request that needs them.
- Retrieve MX records in priority order
- Keep domain research beside the request
- Avoid a separate manual lookup

- 3Tell Notis: retrieve the MX records for the domain in each incoming request with Clearout and include the records in the run report.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger for requests that include a domain.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real domain.
