Check Instantly email verification when asked in Slack
A direct Slack request can prompt a quick verification status check, so you can give the team a useful update without hunting through tools.
Trigger
Direct Message Received

Action
Check Email Verification Status
Tool to check status of an email verification job. Use after submitting a verification request to retrieve the current status of a specific email address.
Why this helps
Checking an email's verification status can become a distracting side quest when a teammate asks during focused work.
- Handle a clear status request promptly.
- Avoid searching Instantly manually for a known verification job.
- Give teammates a current answer with less context switching.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Instantly to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction to check Instantly verification status when a Slack DM asks about an address whose verification was already submitted.
- 4Select the Slack direct message trigger, choose where reports should go, and test with one real request for a known address.
