Start an IP-based company lookup from Slack
When an IP is already part of a research discussion, send it to a targeted company lookup.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
IP to Company Lookup
Tool to lookup company by ip address. use after obtaining an ip to get detailed company info.
Why this helps
A provided IP can be easy to overlook when a discussion has other moving parts and the research step is manual.
- Use an IP already provided for company research as a lookup starting point.
- Keep the resulting company details near the message that supplied the IP.
- Reduce a manual handoff from Slack to company research.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Bigpicture io to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to use Bigpicture io IP to Company Lookup only when a channel message explicitly provides an IP for company research, then report the result with the message context.
- 3Pick the Slack Channel Message Received trigger.
- 4Choose a channel for run reports, then test with a real research message containing an IP address.
Questions about this workflow
Should every IP mentioned in Slack trigger a lookup?
No. The prompt should limit lookups to messages that explicitly provide an IP for company research.
What does the action return?
It looks up company information by IP address. Review the result in the context of the original research request.
