Review a Contact Name During an Approved Audit
Keep a permitted name review attached to the Slack audit request, and route the result for a person to validate.
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 from a full name. Extracts the first valid name token and queries the GenderAPI.io single-name endpoint. Use when you have a full name and want to infer likely gender.
Why this helps
Contact audits can turn into a string of tiny tool switches that make it harder to finish the review.
- Starts a lookup from the audit request already in Slack.
- Keeps the check dependent on documented consent.
- Makes validation part of the process.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and GenderAPI.io to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to query a contact's full name for an audit only when the Slack request includes explicit consent.
- 3Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Run one real, permitted audit example and have a reviewer assess the inference.
Questions about this workflow
Can the result be accepted as an audit finding by itself?
No. It is an inference that requires human validation and an appropriate, consented purpose.
Will this update a contact record?
No. The selected action queries a full name; the workflow should return the result for review.
