Notis

Verify the gift behind every donor email

After you send a donor message, Notis can check the referenced gift and return a concise verification report.

Trigger

New Sent Message

Triggered when a new message is sent from the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Get Gift By ID

Retrieves comprehensive gift details from Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT by gift ID. Use this tool when you need to fetch detailed information about a specific gift including: - Gift amount and currency - Donor/constituent information - Gift type and status - Important dates (gift date, post date) - Associated metadata and custom fields The gift_id is the unique system record ID (integer) that identifies the gift in Raiser's Edge NXT.

Why this helps

Staff send donor updates from memory and later have to reconcile amounts, dates, or statuses.

  • Reduce incorrect donor updates
  • Create a reliable follow-up trail
  • Catch status mismatches quickly

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Blackbaud in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that extracts a gift ID from sent donor emails and retrieves the matching gift.
  • 3Pick New Sent Message as the trigger.
  • 4Select a report channel and test with one sent message.
