Review an Aryn query plan from a Notion research question
See how an analysis question would be approached before running it. Notis can send a newly updated Notion research question to Aryn for a plan.
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
Generate plan
Tool to generate a query plan without executing it. use when you need to review the logical plan before running your query (e.g., "generate a plan for revenue breakdown by region").
Why this helps
Unclear analysis requests create extra back-and-forth and make it harder to know what a query will do.
- Surfaces the logical plan before query execution.
- Keeps the research question and plan workflow anchored to Notion.
- Makes ambiguous analysis requests easier to review early.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Aryn to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to create one.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction to generate an Aryn plan when a Notion research page receives an analysis question.
- 4Choose the Notion Page Content Updated trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one updated research page containing a concrete question.
Questions about this workflow
Does Generate plan run the analysis?
No. It generates a query plan without executing it.
What should the Notion page contain?
Include a clear analysis question and enough context for Notis to form a useful request.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Aryn. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Aryn actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create DocSet
Tool to create a new docset. use when you need to allocate a storage container before adding documents.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create DocSet
Tool to create a new docset. use when you need to allocate a storage container before adding documents.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Delete DocSet
Tool to delete a docset and all its documents. use after confirming the docset id, when you need to permanently remove a docset and its contents.
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.
Generate plan
Tool to generate a query plan without executing it. use when you need to review the logical plan before running your query (e.g., "generate a plan for revenue breakdown by region").
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get DocSet Metadata
Tool to retrieve metadata for a specific docset. use when you have the docset id and optionally need usage statistics.
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 Document by ID
Tool to retrieve a document by id. use after both docset and document ids are available.
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 Document Binary
Tool to retrieve the binary content of a document by docset id and document id.
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.
List Async Tasks
Tool to list all outstanding asynchronous tasks for the account. use when you need to check pending or running tasks.
