Keep your credential database structure understandable

Review the properties in your Notion credential database without opening the database settings each time.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Fetch Database

Fetches a notion database's structural metadata (properties, title, etc.) via its `database id`, not the data entries; `database id` must reference an existing database.

Why this helps

Database schemas can become harder to use as fields accumulate or names drift from the team's workflow.

  • Make database structure easier to review at a glance.
  • Notice property changes that may affect the credential workflow.
  • Reduce time spent navigating database settings.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Certifier and Notion once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis which known credential database to inspect and what properties to summarize.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one run and compare the report to the database's visible schema.

Questions about this workflow

Does this inspect the database's rows?

No. The selected action fetches structural metadata such as database properties and title, not database entries.

Can Notis decide which properties are obsolete?

It can summarize the schema. Your criteria for an obsolete or confusing property must be supplied.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Certifier to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)

Efficiently adds multiple standard content blocks to a notion page in a single api call with automatic markdown parsing. the 'content' field in notionrichtext blocks now automatically detects and parses markdown formatting including headers (# ## ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), inline code (`code`), links ([text](url)), and more. ideal for bulk content creation, ai agents, and replacing multiple individual add page content calls. supports automatic text formatting, content splitting, and up to 100 blocks per request.

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Add content to Notion page

Deprecated: appends a single content block to a notion page or a parent block (must be page, toggle, to-do, bulleted/numbered list, callout, or quote); invoke repeatedly to add multiple blocks.

ActionInstant

Append complex blocks (advanced, full control)

Appends complex blocks with full notion block structure to a parent block or page. use for advanced scenarios requiring precise control: code blocks, tables, embeds, nested children within blocks, or when working with pre-built notion block objects. requires full notion api block schema - use add multiple page content for simpler content creation.

ActionInstant

Archive Notion Page

Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.

ActionInstant

Create comment

Adds a comment to a notion page (via `parent page id`) or to an existing discussion thread (via `discussion id`); cannot create new discussion threads on specific blocks (inline comments).

ActionInstant

Create Notion Database

Creates a new notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema; use this action exclusively for creating new databases.

ActionInstant

Create Notion page

Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.

ActionInstant

Delete a block

Archives a notion block, page, or database using its id, which sets its 'archived' property to true (like moving to "trash" in the ui) and allows it to be restored later.

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Certifier and Notion, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
