Put a network block reputation check on a schedule
Have Notis check a CIDR range in Abuselpdb on a recurring schedule and send the results to your report channel.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Check Block
Tool to check the reputation of all ip addresses in a cidr range. use when you need aggregated abuse data for a network block.
Why this helps
A network check that depends on someone remembering to run it can slip during a busy week.
- Make recurring network review easier to remember.
- Receive aggregated block results in a selected report channel.
- Use the same defined CIDR range for a regular check.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abuselpdb once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to create one.
- 3In one instruction, provide the CIDR range and ask Notis to check its aggregated abuse data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test once and confirm the report covers the intended CIDR range.
Questions about this workflow
Where does the CIDR range come from?
Include the range in your instruction. The automation needs a specific block to check.
Will the schedule compare results over time?
Not by itself. A comparison needs prior results or a baseline to be available to Notis.

Message Status Updated
Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
