Populate Company Databases Instantly
Create a new company data source in Notion and Notis automatically imports matching companies and their Affinity list entries.
Trigger
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.
Action
Get a company s list entries
Summarize company data across all lists, including list-specific fields and metadata like creation date and author. access requires "export data from lists" permission.
Why this helps
You create a new company data source in Notion but have to manually pull companies from Affinity, which is tedious and error-prone.
- Populate databases instantly
- Reduce manual data entry
- Avoid entry errors
- Save hours on setup
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Affinity to Notis.
- 2Create an Automation named 'Batch Company Import' with the instruction: 'When I create a new company data source in Notion, import all companies from Affinity and include their list membership data.'
- 3Select 'Data Source Created' as the trigger.
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by creating a new test company data source in Notion.
Questions about this workflow
Can I filter which companies get imported?
Yes. Specify 'only warm companies' or 'companies in this list' to control what gets imported.
What happens to duplicate companies?
Notis checks for duplicates by name and skips those already in your Notion database.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Affinity. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Affinity actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get a company s list entries
Summarize company data across all lists, including list-specific fields and metadata like creation date and author. access requires "export data from lists" permission.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get a company s lists
Returns metadata for all the lists on which the given company appears.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get all companies
Affinity api allows paginated access to company info and custom fields. use `fieldids` or `fieldtypes` to specify data in a request. retrieve field ids/types via get `/v2/companies/fields`. export permission needed.
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.
Get all list entries on a list
Access and export essential data and metadata for companies, persons, or opportunities from a list, specifying data via `fieldids` or `fieldtypes`. "export data from lists" permission is necessary.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get all list entries on a saved view
Use the endpoint to access rows in a saved view with specific filters and selected fields from a web app. it doesn't maintain sort order, supports only sheet-type views, and requires export permissions.
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.
Get all opportunities
Pagination through opportunities in affinity yields basic info but excludes field data. for field data, use specified get endpoints. "export data from lists" permission needed.
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.
Get all persons
The affinity api offers paginated access to person data using `fieldids` or `fieldtypes`. bulk extraction needs special permissions and supports multiple parameters.
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.
Get a person s list entries
Summary: browse rows for a person in all lists, showing field data and entry metadata like creation time and author. requires "export data from lists" permission.
