Turn search ideas into measurable tests

A written search improvement can lead directly to an experiment you can learn from.

Trigger

Page Content Updated

Triggers when the body content of a Notion page is updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any page content edit in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion aggregates content edits within a short window (~60s typical).

Action

Add AB Test

Tool to create an ab test comparing search performance between two variants. use to test different index configurations or search parameters and measure impact on click-through and conversion rates.

Why this helps

Search ideas often remain in planning notes because setting up the experiment becomes another task.

  • Connect a documented idea to an experiment.
  • Compare search variants with measured performance.
  • Reduce handoff delay between planning and testing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Algolia to Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how an eligible Notion strategy update should define two search variants for an Algolia A/B test.
  • 4Choose Page Content Updated and scope it to the strategy page or data source.
  • 5Test with a clearly defined experiment proposal and inspect the test details.

Questions about this workflow

Will every edit create a test?

Use the instruction and trigger scope to limit tests to documented proposals that define a useful comparison.

What does the action do?

Add AB Test creates an experiment comparing search performance between two variants.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Algolia actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Add AB Test

Tool to create an ab test comparing search performance between two variants. use to test different index configurations or search parameters and measure impact on click-through and conversion rates.

Webhook trigger

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

Browse Algolia Index

Tool to retrieve all records from an index. use when you need to export or iterate through an entire index dataset.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Clear Objects

Tool to clear records of an index without affecting settings. use when you need to completely wipe all objects (e.g., after a bulk reindex) while preserving index configuration.

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

Clear Rules

Tool to delete all rules in an index. use when you need to wipe all rules before re-creating them. use after confirming no critical rules require retention.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Clicked Object IDs

Tool to send a click event to algolia to capture clicked items. use immediately after a user click outside of search contexts to report click events.

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

Clicked Object IDs After Search

Tool to send a click event after a search response. use when you want to report which items a user clicked in search results.

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

Converted Object IDs

Tool to send a conversion event for items outside of search context. use when tracking conversions on category pages or external flows unrelated to algolia search.

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

Copy Index

Tool to copy the specified index to a new index. use when you need to duplicate an existing index including records, settings, synonyms, and rules after confirming source and destination names.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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