Make the first handoff useful by including current infrastructure options.

Trigger

New Contact Added

Triggered when a new contact is added in the Outlook contacts.

Action

List Bonsai Spaces

Tool to retrieve a list of all available spaces. use when you need to see the server groups and geographic regions available to your account.

Why this helps

New technical relationships often start with region questions that require another manual lookup.

  • Improve technical onboarding
  • Answer region questions sooner
  • Create consistent handoff notes

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Bonsai in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Contact region availability brief.
  • 3Tell Notis to inspect each new contact for stated deployment regions, list relevant Bonsai spaces, and summarize the available options.
  • 4Choose New Contact Added as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one contact containing a region.

Questions about this workflow

What if no region is provided?

Notis should report that the requirement is missing instead of guessing.

Does it send the brief to the contact?

No. It sends the report to the channel you choose.
