Turn Trial Sign-ups into Customers

Trial sign-up in Notion? User automatically joins your trial conversion group in ActiveTrail. Onboarding and conversion emails start flowing immediately.

Trigger

Page Created

Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.

Action

Add Group Member

Tool to add a member to a group in ActiveTrail. Use when you need to add a contact to a specific group with their email and optional contact details.

Why this helps

New trial sign-ups recorded in Notion don't automatically reach your onboarding and conversion email sequences in ActiveTrail, reducing trial-to-paid conversion significantly.

  • Trial users instantly enter onboarding sequence
  • Conversion emails sent at optimal times
  • Trial-to-paid conversion rates increase

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Notion product database and ActiveTrail account to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a new free trial is initiated in Notion, add that user to the Trial Conversion group in ActiveTrail.'
  • 3Trigger on 'New Page' in your Trials database.
  • 4Set notifications.
  • 5Test by signing up for a trial and verifying group enrollment in ActiveTrail.

Questions about this workflow

Can I segment trial users by product?

Yes. Create groups for each product: 'Product A Trial Users', 'Product B Trial Users', etc.

Can I remove them from the trial group when they convert?

Yes. Create a separate automation: 'When trial status becomes Paid, remove from Trial group and add to Customers group.'

Can I send different emails based on trial length?

Yes. Use conditional logic in Notis or ActiveTrail to send 14-day trial sequences vs 30-day trial sequences.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

ActiveTrail actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Add Group Member

TriggerPolling

Create or Update Group Member

Tool to create or update a member in a group. Use when you need to add a new contact to a specific group or update an existing member's details. The API will not return errors if the address is already in the group.

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

Create a New Group

Tool to create a new group in ActiveTrail. Use when you need to add a new group to organize and segment contacts.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Create Contact

Tool to create a new contact in ActiveTrail. Use when you need to add a new contact to the system. Note: Newly created contacts won't be linked to any group, making email/SMS delivery impossible until assigned to a group. Either email or sms must be provided.

ActionInstant

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

Create Content Category

Tool to create a new content category in ActiveTrail account. Use when you need to add a new category for organizing campaigns and templates.

ActionInstant

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

Create New Mailing List

Tool to create a new mailing list in ActiveTrail. Use when you need to add a new mailing list to organize and manage contacts.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

Create Order

Tool to create new orders in ActiveTrail commerce system. Use when you need to add order records with customer information, products, and transaction details. Accepts an array of order objects for batch creation.

ActionInstant

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