Look up company context from an IP address
When a course-related research request includes an IP address, check whether Bigpicture io can associate it with a company.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
IP to Company Lookup
Tool to lookup company by ip address. use after obtaining an ip to get detailed company info.
Why this helps
Research requests can arrive with an IP address but no company context, leaving a manual lookup step.
- Uses an IP address supplied in the incoming request.
- Returns available company information for review.
- Keeps the lookup tied to its Canvas-related research context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Bigpicture io once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: use the IP address in the incoming request to look up associated company information and report the result with the request context.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and send a request only when an IP address is available for lookup.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
Does Canvas provide an IP address for every course event?
No IP field is specified for the listed Canvas triggers. This workflow requires the incoming webhook request to supply the IP address.
Does an IP lookup prove which company or person acted?
No. Treat the result as company context to review, not proof of a specific person's identity or action.
