Validate phone numbers with IP-based country inference

When a document contains both a phone number and client IP, check the number without separately specifying its country.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Phone Number Validation by IP

Validates a phone number using the country inferred from the client’s IP address.

Why this helps

Phone validation can stall when the number's country is unknown and a reviewer has to determine it manually.

  • Validate a phone number using country inferred from the client IP.
  • Avoid a separate country lookup when both inputs are available.
  • Flag missing inputs clearly for document review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Big data cloud once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome: extract a phone number and client IP from each submitted document, then validate the number using the IP to infer country.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real document containing both a phone number and client IP.

Questions about this workflow

What inputs does this action require?

It needs a phone number and a client IP address so it can infer the country for validation.

Will it work if the document has a phone number but no IP?

The action is designed to infer country from the client IP, so the workflow should report that the required IP input is missing.
