Check Boxhero supplier context from a Notion comment
A supplier question in Notion can prompt a quick Boxhero partner lookup, so you can respond with the context already available.
Trigger
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.
Action
BoxHero - List Partners
Tool to list partners (suppliers and customers). Use when retrieving partner information with optional type filtering and pagination.
Why this helps
Supplier questions are easy to postpone when answering requires another search for existing partner information.
- Get existing supplier context while the question is active.
- Avoid repeated searches for partner records.
- Make the next response easier to write with relevant information at hand.

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

Get Item
Tool to retrieve a specific item (barcode) by ID. Use when you need detailed information about a single item including its attributes, pricing, and inventory quantities.
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 Item Attribute

New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get Location
Tool to retrieve a specific location by ID. Use when you need detailed information about a particular warehouse location including its name, quantity, and notes.
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.
Get Member
Tool to retrieve a specific team member by ID. Use when you need to get details about a particular member.
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.
Get Linked Team Info
Tool to get information about the linked team and its mode. Use when you need to retrieve the currently linked team details.
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.
BoxHero - List Basic Transactions
Tool to list basic inventory transactions. Use when you need a high-level overview of in/out/move transactions.
