Assess the calling IP when a Slack request asks
Give an explicit request about the current connection a focused threat check without requiring someone to find and paste an IP.
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 Threat for IP
Tool to return only the threat object for the calling IP. Use when only the threat details are required for the current IP.
Why this helps
A request about the current connection can stall when the relevant address is not in the message.
- Use the dedicated action for threat details on the calling client's IP.
- Avoid asking for an IP that the request is specifically about the current connection.
- Keep the result tied to the direct request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Ipdata co to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to check the calling IP's threat profile when explicitly requested in a Slack DM.
- 3Write one instruction to run the calling-IP threat action only for requests about assessing the current connection, then report the result.
- 4Select Direct Message Received and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real DM-style request about checking the current connection.
Questions about this workflow
Does this inspect the DM sender's device IP?
The Ipdata action is described as the calling client's IP. Do not assume it identifies the DM sender's device address.
When should this run?
Use an instruction that requires an explicit request to assess the calling IP, rather than running for general security questions.
