View-Specific Template Gallery

New view created. Relevant templates loaded. Immediately useful.

Trigger

View Created

Triggers when a new Notion view is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload includes `data.view_type` (`table`, `board`, `gallery`, `calendar`, `list`, `timeline`, `gantt`) and `data.parent` pointing at the view's tree parent (typically the teamspace), so customers can filter downstream.

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 views in design databases start empty, forcing designers to manually hunt for templates that match the view's purpose.

  • New views come pre-populated with relevant templates
  • Designers see immediately relevant options without hunting
  • Reduces cognitive load of starting a new view
  • Ensures templates are organized by view context

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Abyssale integrations to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a new view is created in my design database, fetch templates from Abyssale that match the view type.'
  • 3Specify your design database and any view types to target (or leave open for all).
  • 4Set notifications and create the automation.
  • 5Create a new view and verify templates populate for that view type.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know which templates match which view type?

You configure this in your automation prompt (e.g., 'For gallery views, show lifestyle templates; for kanban views, show workflow templates').

Can I use this for different database views that serve different purposes?

Yes. You can create separate automations for different databases or configure one automation to handle context-aware template selection.

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.
