Trigger

Action

Append Reverse Email Lookup

Tool to perform reverse email lookup and retrieve contact information. Use when you need to find the name, phone, and address associated with an email address. Returns personal identifiers, contact details, and address components.

Why this helps

A promising introduction can arrive in a DM with too little context, leaving you to pause and investigate before replying.

  • Retrieve associated name, phone, and address details from an email.
  • Reduce manual searching before deciding how to follow up.
  • Keep returned context available in a consistent run-report channel.

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Data247 to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis in plain language to reverse-look up emails shared in Slack DMs and report the returned contact details.
  • 3Select Direct Message Received as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a run-report channel and test with a real DM containing an email address.
