Bring Beamer notifications into your follow-up routine

When a follow-up changes, let Notis check for unread Beamer notifications and surface them alongside the work you are tracking.

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 Notifications

Tool to fetch unread notifications. use after providing user context to retrieve and mark notifications as read.

Why this helps

Switching tools to check for unread notifications can derail a task and make important updates easier to miss.

  • Check unread notifications when a follow-up record changes.
  • See notification details in the run report.
  • Keep incoming Beamer activity connected to a tracked task.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Beamer to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve unread Beamer notifications when a follow-up changes and summarize them alongside the record.
  • 4Choose the Notion Page Properties Updated trigger scoped to the follow-up data source and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by updating one real follow-up record.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Beamer actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Count Posts

Tool to count existing posts. use when you need the number of posts matching specific filters.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get Feed

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

TriggerPolling

Get Feed URL

Tool to retrieve the url for your personalized feed. use after setting segmentation or language options to embed or redirect users.

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 Notification

Tool to retrieve details of a specific notification by its unique notification id. use after obtaining the notification id to fetch its full details.

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 Notifications

Tool to fetch unread notifications. use after providing user context to retrieve and mark notifications as read.

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 Post Comments

Tool to retrieve comments for a specific post. use after identifying the post id to list its comments.
