Start a new tracking source with a conditions check
When you create a data source for weather-sensitive work, Notis can retrieve your latest Ambient readings to support the setup review.
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 Devices
Tool to retrieve a list of user's ambient weather devices with their most recent data. use when you need to list your stations and view their latest readings.
Why this helps
A new tracking source can add another place to remember to check when planning outdoor work.
- Add a conditions check to the creation of a relevant tracking source.
- Get current device context while setting up a new workspace area.
- Reduce forgotten setup follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Ambient Weather to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to check weather when a tracking source is created.
- 3Give Notis one plain-language instruction to retrieve Ambient readings and summarize them when a source for weather-sensitive work is added.
- 4Choose the Notion Data Source Created trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by creating one real relevant data source.
Questions about this workflow
Will it run when I create a database container?
This trigger is for a data source being created. Notion database-container creation is a separate event.
Should I use it for every source?
Use it when the new data source supports weather-sensitive planning or outdoor operations.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Ambient weather. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers

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

Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
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.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
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.
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.
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.
