Add IP context to Slack support investigations
Keep customer access investigations moving by checking an IP as soon as it is shared in Slack.
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
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
Support investigations stall when access details require a separate manual lookup before anyone can respond.
- Add a useful IP classification to an active support discussion.
- Reduce tool switching while coordinating a customer investigation.
- Help the team decide what context to gather next.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Ip2proxy to Notis once.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to check IPs shared with support access reports and return proxy, VPN, or Tor status.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports, then test with a real support example.
