Check browser readiness as a new database is set up

When a database container launches a new workflow, retrieve the associated session details to make readiness easier to verify.

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

Retrieve a browser session

Tool to retrieve details of a specific browser session. use when you have a session id and need its metadata (status, urls, timestamps).

Why this helps

A newly created database may look ready while its related browser session status is unknown.

  • Retrieve session details during workflow setup.
  • Make browser readiness easier to verify from the setup process.
  • Reduce a separate manual session lookup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Browserbase tool to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create one plain-language prompt explaining which new database containers relate to browser work and how to identify their session.
  • 3Select the Notion Database Created trigger.
  • 4Choose a run-report channel and test with a newly created database for a real browser workflow.

Questions about this workflow

Is this event the same as creating a data source?

No. Database Created fires for the database container. A new data source within an existing database has its own trigger.

Does this start or modify a session?

No. The action retrieves details for a specific Browserbase session.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Browserbase tool actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Create a new browser context

Tool to create a new browser context. use when you need to obtain upload credentials for a custom user-data-directory in a project.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Retrieve a browser context

Tool to retrieve details of a specific browser context. use when you have a context id and need its metadata.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Update Browser Context

Tool to update a specific browser context. use when you need fresh upload url and encryption details for an existing context, after obtaining a valid context id.

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

Create Browser Session

Tool to create a new browser session. use when you need an isolated browser context before performing any page interactions.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Retrieve a browser session

Tool to retrieve details of a specific browser session. use when you have a session id and need its metadata (status, urls, timestamps).

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

Retrieve Session Debug URLs

Tool to retrieve live debug urls for a specific session. use when you need to connect to a running session for debugging.

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

Download Session Artifacts

Tool to download files from a specific session. use after session completion to retrieve all generated artifacts in a zip archive.

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

Retrieve Session Logs

Tool to retrieve logs of a specific session. use after actions in a session to inspect network events and data exchange.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and Browserbase tool, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
