Run a Bugbug test when a Notion test plan changes

Let a meaningful update to the test plan prompt the corresponding check, without treating every small edit as a new task.

Trigger

Page Updated

Triggers when any block within a specified Notion page is updated.

Action

Run test

Execute a test in bugbug and return the test run details. this action allows you to run a specific test with optional configuration for browser, device, viewport, and variable overrides. it returns detailed information about the test run including step-by-step execution status.

Why this helps

A test plan can change while the execution routine remains tied to an old version or a manual reminder.

  • Keep test execution connected to changes in the plan.
  • Ask Notis to consider the revision before selecting a run.
  • Reduce the risk of working from stale test instructions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Bugbug to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3In one plain-language prompt, ask Notis to review test-plan page updates and run the relevant existing Bugbug test when the revision calls for it.
  • 4Select the Notion Page Updated trigger for the test-plan page and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real plan update that changes a testable instruction.

Questions about this workflow

Does it run for every block update?

The prompt can ask Notis to assess whether the content change warrants a test. Configure the trigger for the intended page.

Can it update the test plan after a run?

This workflow runs an existing Bugbug test and reports the outcome. It does not edit the Notion page.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Bugbug actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Get test run details

Get detailed information about test runs from bugbug. this action retrieves test run details with optional filtering parameters.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

List suites

List all available test suites in the bugbug platform. this tool makes a get request to the /suites/ endpoint and returns a list of available test suites with pagination support.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

List tests

Retrieves a list of all available tests in the bugbug account. this action provides access to all tests in the account with pagination support. it returns basic information about each test including its id, name, description, and timestamps.

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.

Run test

Execute a test in bugbug and return the test run details. this action allows you to run a specific test with optional configuration for browser, device, viewport, and variable overrides. it returns detailed information about the test run including step-by-step execution status.

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

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

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

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.
