Unblock Dependencies Fast
A task is blocked waiting on someone else's work, but that person doesn't know. Days pass. Notis sends a WhatsApp the instant a task is marked blocked, pinging the person holding up progress so they can unblock it fast.
Trigger
Page Properties Updated
Triggers when properties of a Notion page are updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.
Action
Create Contact
Tool to create a new contact in your 2chat account. use after gathering and verifying first name and at least one contact detail (email, phone, or address).
Why this helps
Blocked tasks sit silently; blocking person unaware they're holding up the team.
- Notify the blocker immediately when work is waiting
- Reduce time tasks spend blocked
- Keep momentum on dependent work
- Make dependencies visible and explicit
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and 2chat.
- 2Create automation: 'When a task status changes to Blocked, extract the Blocking Task field, find the owner of that task, and send them a WhatsApp message saying their work is blocking something and asking for ETA.'
- 3Select trigger: Page Properties Updated from Notion.
- 4Set notification channel.
- 5Test by marking a task as Blocked and confirming the blocker receives the alert.
Questions about this workflow
How do I link the blocking task to the blocked task?
Add a 'Blocking Task' relation or link field in Notion. Notis reads it to identify who to message.
What if the blocker is a system or process, not a person?
Map it to the person responsible for that system (e.g., DevOps for a deployment, QA for testing).
Can I set a reminder to escalate if the blocker doesn't respond?
Yes. Create a second automation that checks daily if the task is still blocked and sends an escalation message after 24 hours.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to 2chat. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
2chat actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Contact
Tool to create a new contact in your 2chat account. use after gathering and verifying first name and at least one contact detail (email, phone, or address).
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get API Usage Info
Tool to retrieve current api usage and account information. use when you need to monitor your remaining quotas before sending more requests.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
List Contacts
Tool to list all contacts in your 2chat account. use when you need to retrieve your contact list after confirming your account connection.
Comment Created
Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.
List Webhook Subscriptions
Tool to list all configured webhook subscriptions. use when you need to audit or review your active whatsapp webhook subscriptions.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Test API Key
Tool to validate your api key and retrieve account info. use when confirming credentials before performing other operations.
Database Created
Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.
Data Source Created
Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.
Data Source Schema Updated
Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.
