Check station advisories when a Notion plan changes

A changed station plan can prompt a fresh BART advisory check before you rely on it.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are 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 property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

Get Service Advisories

Tool to fetch current bart service advisories. use when you need up-to-date system-wide or station-level alerts before presenting or planning transit routes.

Why this helps

A station change can leave an old alert check attached to a plan that no longer matches.

  • Refresh station-level service information after plan changes.
  • Reduce the risk of carrying forward stale travel context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Bart to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with one plain-language instruction to check advisories for the station in an updated plan.
  • 3Pick the Notion Page Properties Updated trigger for your station plans.
  • 4Choose a channel for run reports and test by updating one plan's station.

Questions about this workflow

Can the lookup focus on one station?

Yes. Tell Notis to use the station identified in the updated Notion plan.

What properties can trigger the check?

The event fires when page properties change. The instruction can ask Notis to act only when a relevant station plan is updated.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Bart actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Get BART API Version

Stub action for bart api version retrieval.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Get BART Available Schedules

Tool to retrieve a list of currently released bart schedules. use when you need schedule versioning info.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get Route Info

Tool to fetch detailed information about a specific bart route. use when you know the route number (1–12) or need all routes configuration. call after confirming the route id.

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

Get BART Stations

Stub action for bart stations retrieval.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Get GTFS-RT Trip Updates

Tool to fetch real-time trip updates in gtfs-realtime format. use when you need the latest live trip information as raw protobuf.

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.

Download GTFS Static Schedule Feed

Tool to download the static gtfs feed (google transit.zip). use when needing the latest gtfs schedule data.

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

Get BART Schedule Arrive

Tool to retrieve schedule information based on a specified arrival time. use when planning trips arriving by a given time.

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

Get BART Schedule Depart

Tool to get schedule information based on a specified depart time. use when planning trips from an origin to a destination with time constraints after confirming station codes.
