Give a new data database a BigML starting point
A newly created planning database can cue the BigML project that will hold its related analysis.
Trigger
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.
Action
Create Project
Tool to create a new project. use when you need to group related bigml resources into a project.
Why this helps
Database setup and analysis setup often happen in separate sessions, so the handoff can be missed.
- Create a home for analysis alongside planning structure.
- Reduce the gap between organizing data work and starting it.
- Keep new initiatives easier to find across tools.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and BigML to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction asking Notis to create a BigML project for relevant newly created databases.
- 4Select the Notion Database Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by creating a real database for an initiative and checking BigML.
Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger fire for a data source added to an existing database?
No. That uses the separate Data Source Created event.
What does the action create?
A BigML project, which can group related resources.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Bigml. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Bigml actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create External Connector
Tool to create a new external connector for data sources. use after configuring external databases or search indices.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Project
Tool to create a new project. use when you need to group related bigml resources into a project.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Delete Project
Tool to delete an existing project. use when you need to permanently remove a project resource after confirming it is not in use by other resources.
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.
Get External Connector
Tool to retrieve details of an external connector. use after creating or listing external connectors to inspect its state.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get Project
Tool to retrieve details of a project by id. use when you need to inspect project metadata before analysis.
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.
List Correlations
Tool to list correlation resources. use when you need to browse or paginate existing correlations for the authenticated user.
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.
