Use the EU lookup endpoint for IPs requested in Slack

Honor an EU processing requirement in a direct request with a purpose-built lookup action.

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

EU-specific IP lookup

Tool to lookup a specific IP address via the EU-only data residency endpoint. Use when you need IP lookup processed and stored within the EU.

Why this helps

Remembering which lookup route meets a data residency requirement adds friction to a one-off request.

  • Use Ipdata co's EU-only data residency endpoint for the lookup.
  • Keep the request and result close to the original DM workflow.
  • Reduce the chance of choosing a general lookup when EU processing is requested.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Ipdata co to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation through the portal or ask Notis to handle DM requests that specify EU IP processing.
  • 3Write one instruction to extract the requested IP, use Ipdata co's EU-specific lookup, and report the result.
  • 4Select Direct Message Received and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real DM-style request that explicitly asks for EU processing and includes an IP.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automatically make every lookup EU-only?

The instruction should use this workflow only for requests that specify EU processing, and the selected action is the EU-specific IP lookup.

What if the request does not mention EU processing?

Describe that condition in the instruction so Notis can skip this workflow's lookup when the request does not qualify.
