Check Codemagic variable groups when environments change

An environment change in Notion can cue a quick Codemagic variable-group review, giving configuration follow-up a clear starting point.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are 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 property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

List Variable Groups for App

Tool to retrieve paginated list of variable groups for an application. Use when you need to list or browse variable groups associated with a specific app.

Why this helps

Environment decisions are recorded, but the related configuration review gets separated from the original change.

  • Makes a configuration check part of the environment-change routine.
  • Reduces the need to remember a separate Codemagic inspection.
  • Gives the team an up-to-date view of relevant variable groups.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Codemagic to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Write one instruction to list the relevant Codemagic variable groups when an environment record changes in Notion.
  • 4Select Page Properties Updated for the environment data source and choose where reports should arrive.
  • 5Test with one real environment update.

Questions about this workflow

Does this change any variables?

No. It retrieves variable group information for review; it does not update group settings or variable values.

Can the result be limited to one app?

Describe the intended Codemagic app in the prompt so Notis retrieves the relevant group's information.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Codemagic actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Add Application from Private Repository

Tool to create an application from a private repository using SSH key authentication. Use when you need to add a new private repository to Codemagic with SSH credentials.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Add New Application

Tool to add a Git repository to the applications list in Codemagic. Use when you need to add a new application to Codemagic from a repository URL.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get Meta Information

Tool to get metadata about Codemagic including public IP addresses in use (in CIDR notation). Use when you need to retrieve IP blocks for whitelisting build machines or simulator network requests.

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

Get Variable Group Information

Tool to retrieve information about a specific variable group including its name and configuration settings. Use when you need to get details for a variable group by its ID.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Update Variable Group

Tool to change a variable group's name and security settings. Use when you need to update an existing variable group by its ID. Returns success confirmation on 204 No Content response.

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

Delete All Application Caches

Tool to delete all caches for a specific application. Use when clearing all cached data for an app. The deletion process is asynchronous and will complete after the API response is returned.

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

Delete Specific Cache

Tool to delete a specific cache from an application. Use when a cached build artifact needs to be removed. The deletion is performed asynchronously and returns immediately with a 202 Accepted status.

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 Account Info for Over-the-Air Updates

Tool to retrieve account information for over-the-air updates. Use when you need to check the account status (enabled/disabled/pending) and associated team identifier.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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