Look up the exact Datascope record someone requested

Give precise answers to record questions by turning the type and ID in an email into a Datascope lookup.

Trigger

New Outlook Message

Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Get List Element

Tool to retrieve a specific element from a metadata list by type and ID. Use when you need to fetch detailed information about a specific list element such as locations, products, or other metadata objects.

Why this helps

Record lookups create unnecessary back and forth when the needed identifier is already in the message.

  • Shortens lookup conversations
  • Returns authoritative record details
  • Creates a clear audit-friendly summary

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Datascope once.
  • 2Create an automation for exact record lookups.
  • 3Tell Notis to read each message, extract the Datascope list type and element ID, retrieve that element, and summarize the requested details.
  • 4Choose New Outlook Message as the trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one email containing a valid type and ID.

Questions about this workflow

What if the email omits the ID?

Notis can report that the exact lookup cannot run until an element ID is provided.

Can it retrieve several records?

This action is for a specific element, so use separate instructions or runs for each requested ID.
