Check opted-in attendee names
Keep follow-up research attached to event planning, with a clear opt-in gate and a result for review.
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
Gender From First Name
Tool to determine the gender of a first name. Use when you need to identify gender based on a given name.
Why this helps
Event follow-up lists often create scattered manual research and unclear ownership.
- Ties a lookup to an event follow-up request.
- Requires attendee opt-in before processing.
- Makes the result available in the team's existing workflow.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Gender API to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create a prompt to run first-name lookups only for event attendees whose opt-in is recorded in the Slack message.
- 3Select Channel Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test with one real opted-in attendee.
Questions about this workflow
Should this enrich an entire attendee list automatically?
No. Limit it to specific attendees whose opt-in is recorded and whose lookup is explicitly requested.
Can the result personalize any message automatically?
Keep it for human review and do not use an inferred attribute as the sole basis for different treatment.
