Add a full-name check to contact intake
Give contact intake a predictable enrichment step so you can spend less attention on copying names between tools.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Query Gender by Full Name
Tool to determine gender from a full name. Extracts the first valid name token and queries the GenderAPI.io single-name endpoint. Use when you have a full name and want to infer likely gender.
Why this helps
Adding a new contact can turn into a string of small manual updates that interrupt deeper work.
- Use a full-name query at the moment a new contact arrives.
- Reduce repetitive enrichment steps during contact intake.
- Keep the inferred result attached to an existing, consent-aware process.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Segment and GenderAPI.io to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or tell Notis what outcome you want in plain language.
- 3Write one instruction to query the full name from each incoming contact request only when consent is recorded, then return the likely result to your contact process.
- 4Select the incoming webhook trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test with one real contact whose consent is recorded.
Questions about this workflow
Why use a full-name query here?
Use it when your intake sends a full name and you want GenderAPI.io to extract a valid name token for its query.
Will this update my Segment profile automatically?
The workflow can return the result to your existing contact process when that process is available; it does not imply a Segment trigger or an automatic write-back capability.
