Check existing paperwork as a contract tracker is created
When a contract data source appears in Notion, Notis can retrieve the Boloforms document list to give your tracking setup useful account context.
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 Documents List
Tool to retrieve a list of documents associated with the account. use when you need to list all documents.
Why this helps
A new tracking structure often starts with a blank slate, even when the account already has documents worth considering.
- Bring existing document context into tracker setup.
- Prompt an initial inventory check at the moment a data source is added.
- Keep setup work connected to the tools that hold the paperwork.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Boloforms to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to retrieve Boloforms documents when a contract data source is created.
- 3Select Data Source Created and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real data source creation and review the returned list.
Questions about this workflow
Does Data Source Created mean a new database container?
No. It fires when a data source is added, which is distinct from a Database Created container event.
Can it create matching documents?
No. The supplied Boloforms action only retrieves the account's document list.

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.
