Check contact reputation for new discussion topics

Get a quick risk signal when a new topic brings a contact address into view.

Trigger

New Canvas Discussion Topic

Polls a Canvas course for new discussion topics.

Action

Email reputation

Tool to enrich an email address with reputation and risk scoring data. use when you need to assess an address's deliverability and risk before outreach. use after confirming your api key is valid.

Why this helps

New discussion topics can prompt outreach, but a contact address may be unfamiliar or risky to use.

  • Review available email risk data before initiating outreach.
  • Keep the result connected to the new topic.
  • Use run reports to decide whether another contact check is needed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Abstract once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to assess any email address returned with the new discussion topic and summarize its reputation data.
  • 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Topic as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real topic event that includes an email address; ensure your Abstract API key is valid.

Questions about this workflow

Can this assess an address not included in the topic data?

No. The workflow can assess only an address included in the returned event data or otherwise supplied to Notis.

Does the reputation score tell me whether the topic is appropriate?

No. Abstract provides email reputation and risk data, not a judgment about discussion content.
