Notis

Make consent part of email-based personalization

When a customer has agreed to this use, let the email lookup run in the same process that handles their profile.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Query gender by email address

Tool to determine gender from an email address. Use when you need to infer gender for personalization after obtaining proper consent.

Why this helps

Remembering which profile details can be used for personalization adds friction to customer setup and follow-up.

  • Keep the consent condition explicit in the automation instruction.
  • Run an email-based query only when the backend request signals the approved use.
  • Reduce the need to revisit a separate enrichment tool.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Segment and GenderAPI.io to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation from the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Give Notis one instruction to query the email from incoming requests only when consent and the approved personalization purpose are present, then return the result to that process.
  • 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger and a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one real customer request that meets your consent and purpose requirements.

Questions about this workflow

When should email lookup be used?

Only when you have appropriate consent, a clear purpose, and safeguards for using an inferred gender result.

Does Segment trigger this automation?

No. Segment provides no trigger events here. Your backend must send the request to Notis's incoming webhook.
