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

Livechat update

Why this helps

When a brief changes, teams often repeat the new context manually in an active conversation.

  • Reduces repeated explanations after a brief changes.
  • Keeps the current live chat profile in line with the updated context.
  • Makes a content revision a prompt for follow-through.

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and BotStar to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to update relevant details in the active BotStar chat when the brief changes.
  • 3Choose Page Content Updated and scope it to the brief page.
  • 4Select a run-report channel and test with a brief revision during an active session.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Botstar actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerPolling

Livechat boot

Tool to reinitialize the live chat widget with provided data. use after initial load to reset or update widget configuration.

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

Close BotStar Livechat Widget

Tool to hide the live chat window. use when the chat widget is configured in livechat or popup mode.

ActionInstant

TriggerPolling

Livechat on open

Tool to register a callback when the chat window is opened. use after widget initialization.

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

Livechat open

Tool to show the live chat window. use after the widget has been bootstrapped with botstarapi('boot') to programmatically open the chat window (mode must be 'livechat' or 'popup').

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

Livechat update

Tool to update user details on the current live chat session. use when you need to modify user profile attributes during an active conversation.

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 BotStar Webview Parameter

Tool to retrieve a parameter value passed from the botstar chatbot to the webview. use inside onchatbotready after your page loads in modal mode with bs:input meta tags.

ActionInstant
