Network Upstream Provider Intelligence
Understand your network's upstream. See which providers feed traffic to your ASN instantly.

Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Action
ASN Extended Receiving From Info API
Tool to return upstream providers (receivingfrom) for a given asn. use when you need a paginated list of ases feeding traffic for the specified asn.
Why this helps
Network engineer investigating BGP issues doesn't know upstream providers. Manual lookups distract from diagnosing routing problems.
- See upstream providers feeding traffic to your ASN
- Understand network dependencies and routing hierarchy
- Identify single points of failure in upstream connectivity
- Speed up BGP troubleshooting with upstream context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Linear workspace and Big Data Cloud ASN analysis APIs to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When someone comments with an ASN on a network issue, retrieve all upstream providers (receiving-from ASes) and list them.'
- 3Select 'Comment Received' as your trigger.
- 4Set Notis to reply with upstream provider list in the same thread.
- 5Test by commenting on a network issue with your ASN or a known public ASN and verify upstream providers list appears.
Questions about this workflow
What does 'receiving-from' mean?
Receiving-from ASes are upstream providers that feed traffic to your ASN. They're higher in the routing hierarchy.
How many upstream providers do networks typically have?
Usually 2-5 for redundancy. Having only one upstream is a single point of failure.
Can we use this to optimize routing?
Yes. Understanding upstream providers helps you choose which providers to use and which routes to prefer via BGP policy.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Linear to Big data cloud. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Linear triggers
Big data cloud actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Am I Roaming API
Tool to determine if the user is roaming based on their ip address and gps coordinates. use after obtaining device location to verify roaming status before mobile actions.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
ASN Extended Receiving From Info API
Tool to return upstream providers (receivingfrom) for a given asn. use when you need a paginated list of ases feeding traffic for the specified asn.
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
ASN Extended Transit To Info API
Tool to return downstream customers (transitto) for a given asn. use when you need a paginated list of ases receiving traffic from a specific asn.
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
ASN Rank List API
Tool to fetch a ranked list of autonomous systems by ipv4 announcement volumes. use after you need to compare or analyze as ranks.
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
BGP Active Prefixes API
Tool to retrieve ipv4 or ipv6 prefixes currently announced on bgp. use when inspecting bgp routing announcements for a given asn.
Private Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Reverse Geocoding With Timezone API
Tool to return reverse geocoding and time zone info for given coordinates. use when you need both locality details and timezone data in one call.
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Country by IP Address API
Tool to geolocate an ip address and retrieve country details and demographics. use when you need country-level data after obtaining the target ip address.
Private Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Country Info API
Tool to fetch detailed country information by iso code. use when you need localized names, currencies, regions, and other metadata for a country.
