Notis

Add news context to an abuse report

When a report arrives, search current headlines for related coverage and get a concise context brief alongside the report details.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Search News Articles

Retrieves news articles matching a search and filters.

Why this helps

Abuse reports can arrive without enough context to judge whether a threat is part of a wider, recently reported incident.

  • Search headlines using report details supplied in the webhook payload.
  • Surface relevant coverage without switching between the report and news tools.
  • Keep the search focused on information present in the incoming request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abuselpdb and Currents api once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to search Currents api for news relevant to the incident details supplied with each abuse report.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real example webhook and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow verify whether an IP is abusive?

No. It searches news using details supplied in the webhook. Abuselpdb reputation checks are not among the available trigger events for this package.

What details should the webhook include?

Include the incident context you want Notis to use, such as an IP address, organization, or report summary. Results depend on the quality of those details and available news coverage.
