Review opted-in partner name requests
Make a one-off partner lookup easier to finish without losing the reason or permission context.
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
Query Gender by Full Name
Tool to determine gender by splitting a full name. Use when you have an exact full name string and want to infer gender. Slightly less reliable for rare or ambiguous names.
Why this helps
Partner research can linger as an open loop when requests are split between conversations and manual tools.
- Gives one-off requests a clear completion path.
- Requires opt-in and a specific request in context.
- Makes an uncertain result reviewable before use.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Gender API to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an instruction to use the full-name action only for partner contacts with opt-in recorded and a direct lookup request.
- 3Pick Channel Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports appear and test with one eligible partner request.
Questions about this workflow
Can a partner's business role imply opt-in?
No. Require explicit opt-in from the person; a business relationship is not a substitute.
What should happen with ambiguous names?
Treat results as uncertain and leave them for human review, or skip when the identifier is not clear.
