Look up mail servers when a domain needs checking

Send a domain into a webhook-triggered workflow and get its MX records without leaving your current process.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Find Domain MX Records

Tool to retrieve MX records for a domain in priority order. Use when you need to find a domain's mail servers (e.g., for email routing setup).

Why this helps

A mail server lookup interrupts the work in front of you, especially when the domain arrives from another system or teammate.

  • Start an MX record lookup from an HTTP request.
  • Retrieve records in priority order for routing checks.
  • Make on-demand domain research easier to repeat.

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Clearout once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation using Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Describe that a submitted domain should be checked with Clearout Find Domain MX Records.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test by sending one real domain through the webhook and reviewing the report.
