Carry a selected web highlight into your review
If a useful passage is already selected, copy it into the next review step when your Notion project page changes.
Trigger
Page Updated
Triggers when any block within a specified Notion page is updated.
Action
Copy Selected Text
Copy currently selected text on the page to clipboard - ideal for extracting highlighted content, copying form data, or harvesting visible text selections.
Why this helps
Finding and copying a relevant passage again adds friction to a project review.
- Capture a selected passage during a review workflow.
- Reduce repetitive text selection and copying.
- Keep project review connected to web research.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Browser tool to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation through the portal or tell Notis what you need in plain language.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to copy the currently selected text from the relevant webpage when the tracked page changes.
- 4Choose Page Updated for the specified parent Notion page and pick a channel for run reports.
- 5Test after intentionally selecting safe text on the webpage.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Browser tool. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Browser tool actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Copy Selected Text
Copy currently selected text on the page to clipboard - ideal for extracting highlighted content, copying form data, or harvesting visible text selections.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Drag and Drop
Execute precise drag and drop operations - essential for file uploads, list reordering, element moving, and complex ui interactions that require drag-based manipulation.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Fetch Webpage Content
Your eyes: get page content for decision-making. use before: actions (find targets, understand state) use to verify: page transitions, major state changes, when actions seem to fail format: html=find elements | markdown=clean content | success rate: 99%
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 Clipboard Content
Read current content from the system clipboard - essential for data transfer workflows, extracting copied text, and reading user-copied data for processing.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Keyboard Shortcut
Execute keyboard shortcuts and key combinations - essential for copy/paste, navigation, and application commands that agents need for efficient browser automation.
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.
Mouse Click
Precision clicker: manual clicking with coordinates. pattern: fetchwebpage(html) → find element → estimate coordinates → click → verify hints: center buttons ~(640,350) | nav/header ~y=150 | content ~y=300-500 tip: try ±50px if first click misses | success rate: 85%
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.
Mouse Double Click
Execute a precise double click at specified screen coordinates - ideal for opening files, selecting text, or activating ui elements that require double click gestures.
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.
Mouse Down (Press and Hold)
Press and hold mouse button at coordinates - use for starting custom drag operations, text selections, or long-press interactions. must be followed by mouseup action to complete.
