Keep the IP reputation reference one message away

Ask Notis directly for the IPR category list while you work through an investigation.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Get IPR Category List

Tool to retrieve the complete list of IP reputation categories from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to understand available IPR classification categories used by XFE.

Why this helps

Investigators can lose their thread when classification lookups require navigating to another tool and back.

  • Provides the complete IPR category list in response to a direct request.
  • Supports independent lookup without interrupting a channel discussion.
  • Keeps the workflow grounded in X-Force's available reference action.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and IBM X-Force Exchange once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis through the portal or a conversational request.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the complete IPR category list when a Slack DM asks for it.
  • 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and set a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a direct message requesting the IP reputation categories.

Questions about this workflow

Does it look up an IP's reputation score?

No. It retrieves the IPR category list and does not enrich an individual IP.

Are DMs from all DM channels covered?
