Content Type Template Registry

New content type. Matching templates loaded. Framework ready.

Trigger

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.

Action

Get Designs

Tool to retrieve all designs with optional filtering by category or type. use after authenticating to list available templates.

Why this helps

New content types start without template reference, forcing designers to guess at structure or manually hunt for suitable templates.

  • Each content type comes with its matching template library
  • Designers have a head start with frameworks suited to the content type
  • Reduces guesswork about design structure for new content
  • Supports consistent quality across different content types

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Abyssale to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a new content type database is created, fetch Abyssale templates designed for that content type.'
  • 3Define how to identify content types (by database name, properties, etc.).
  • 4Set notifications and create the automation.
  • 5Create a new content type database and verify templates for that type are fetched.

Questions about this workflow

How do I specify which templates match which content type?

In your automation, map content type names to template categories (e.g., 'Blog posts use blog templates, videos use video templates').

Can one template work for multiple content types?

Yes. You can include cross-type templates in multiple content type sets, or mark them as generic.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Abyssale actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Test Abyssale Authentication

Tool to test api authentication via the /ready endpoint. use after configuring your api key to ensure credentials are valid before other requests.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Create Abyssale Project

Tool to create a new project to organize designs and images. use after deciding on a project name to group your templates and assets.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Get Designs

Tool to retrieve all designs with optional filtering by category or type. use after authenticating to list available templates.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

Get Fonts

Tool to list all available fonts, including custom and google fonts. use when you need to fetch font options before generating or editing designs.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

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.

TriggerInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

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.
