Prepare agents for new Notion data sources

A new data source can signal a new research stream. Let Notis prepare an agent when the source's purpose is clear.

Trigger

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

Action

Create Agent

Tool to create a new agent. use when you need to add an agent with configuration and optional auto-start.

Why this helps

New data structures may be ready before anyone has time to build the agent that will use them.

  • Connect new data structures to their intended work.
  • Reduce agent setup lag for emerging research streams.
  • Use source context to frame agent purpose.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Agenty to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Notis Automations.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction asking Notis to create an Agenty agent for a new data source only when its research or monitoring purpose is clear from context.
  • 4Select the Notion New Page trigger for the relevant database entry or source catalog, choose a run-report channel, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Is there a dedicated data source created trigger?

The supplied Notion events include Data Source Created, but this workflow uses a database page trigger when a source catalog entry is the intended signal.

Can the agent monitor a website?

Describe the desired monitoring task in the prompt. Agenty supports agents for website scraping and change monitoring.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Agenty actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Clone Agent by ID

Tool to clone an existing agent by its id. use when you need to duplicate an agent's configuration and optionally start the clone immediately.

Webhook trigger

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

Create Agent

Tool to create a new agent. use when you need to add an agent with configuration and optional auto-start.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get Agent Templates

Tool to fetch all public agent templates and sample agents. use when listing available templates for users to select.

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

Delete Agent by ID

Tool to delete a single agent by its id. use when you need to permanently remove an agent after confirming it exists.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Fetch all agents

Tool to fetch all active agents under an account. use after authenticating when you need to list agents with pagination and sorting.

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

Get Agent by ID

Tool to fetch details of a specific agent by its id. use when you need full agent configuration before taking further actions.

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

Update Agent by ID

Tool to update an agent's configuration and settings by agent id. use when you need to modify an existing agent after retrieving its current settings. example: "update agent 123 with new name and tags."

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 API Key

Tool to create a new api key. use when you need to provision access credentials for the api.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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