Request an IP check with a Slack reaction
A reaction can make an IP lookup request visible without adding another message or reminder.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Check Proxy Status of an IP
Tool to check if an IP address is a proxy. Use after obtaining an IP to detect proxy, VPN, or Tor status.
Why this helps
Asking for a quick check can get buried in a busy thread or become another task to remember.
- Make a check request with a lightweight team signal.
- Keep the request attached to the IP-containing message.
- Reduce extra back-and-forth for routine lookup requests.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Ip2proxy to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to check the IP in the message that receives the team's chosen reaction and report proxy, VPN, or Tor status.
- 4Choose the Slack message reaction added trigger, set a run-report channel, and test by reacting to a message with a real IP.
Questions about this workflow
Does adding any reaction start the check?
The reaction-added trigger supports optional emoji filtering. Choose a reaction that your team uses to request a check.
Does the original message need an IP?
Yes. The instruction should ask Notis to check an IP in the message associated with the reaction.
