Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Docs to Bubble. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Docs triggers
Bubble actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Bulk Create Things
Tool to bulk create multiple Things in Bubble via newline-separated JSON. Use when you need to insert many records at once. Must have Create via API permission.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Thing
Tool to create a new Thing. Use when providing a complete JSON payload to add a new record.
New Document Created
Triggers when a new Google Doc is created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected. Uses timestamp filtering to efficiently poll for new documents.
Delete Thing By ID
Tool to delete a Bubble Thing by its unique ID. Use when you need to remove a specific record via the Bubble Data API.
Document Deleted
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is deleted (moved to trash). This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are trashed.
Get Thing By ID
Retrieves a single Thing (record) from a Bubble Data Type by its unique ID. This is a read-only operation that fetches complete details of a specific record. The response includes all custom fields defined in the Data Type, plus standard Bubble fields (_id, created_by, created_date, modified_date). Use when you need to: - Fetch details of a specific record you know the ID of - Verify a record exists - Get the latest field values for a Thing Note: Requires the Data API to be enabled in your Bubble app settings and the specific Data Type to be exposed via the API.
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Patch Thing By ID
Tool to modify selected fields on a Thing by its unique ID. Use after confirming the Thing exists.
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.
Replace Thing by ID
Tool to replace all editable fields on a Thing by its Unique ID. Use when you need a full overwrite of a Thing's fields and reset omitted fields to default.
Document Structure Changed
Triggers when a Google Doc's structure changes (headers/footers added/removed, tables/images count changes). This trigger monitors a specific document for structural changes like: - Headers added or removed - Footers added or removed - Tables added or removed - Images (inline objects) added or removed - Positioned objects added or removed - Footnotes added or removed
Download File
Tool to download a file given its URL. Use when you need to retrieve file content and obtain an s3key for subsequent upload tests.
Document Updated
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is updated or modified. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are updated.
Create Temp File
Tool to upload bytes as a temporary file to Cloudflare R2 and return an S3 key. Use when you need a short-lived file reference before persisting it in a Thing.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”

AI in the middle
Every step can include an LLM call: summarise, classify, extract, rewrite.
Full observability
Every run, every step, every input, all replay-able from Mission Control.
Human in the loop

Self-healing
When an API changes shape, Notis adapts the parser. Less midnight fire-fighting.
