Start a research database with coin references
When you create a Notion research database, let Notis retrieve CoinMarketCal's coin list and report names and symbols for reference.
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
List Coins
Tool to retrieve list of all available coins/cryptocurrencies in CoinMarketCal database. Use when you need to fetch coin information including IDs, names, symbols, and event counts.
Why this helps
A new database often prompts a manual hunt for a trusted list of coin names and tickers before the work can begin.
- Provides a reference during new database setup.
- Helps users distinguish project names from symbols.
- Creates a useful starting point for later event research.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and CoinMarketCal to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Ask Notis to retrieve the CoinMarketCal coin list when a research database is created and summarize useful name and symbol references in the report.
- 4Choose the Notion Database Created trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 5Test by creating one real research database.
Questions about this workflow
Does the trigger fire for every database type?
It fires when a Notion database container is created. Adding a data source to an existing database is a different event.
Will the list include event details?
No. It provides coin reference information such as names, symbols, IDs, and event counts.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Coinmarketcal. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Coinmarketcal actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
List Coins
Tool to retrieve list of all available coins/cryptocurrencies in CoinMarketCal database. Use when you need to fetch coin information including IDs, names, symbols, and event counts.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
List Event Categories
Tool to list all event categories. Use when you need to fetch available event categories.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
List Cryptocurrency Events
Tool to retrieve list of cryptocurrency events. Use when you need to fetch upcoming or past crypto events filtered by date range, coins, categories, or other criteria. Note: Cannot retrieve events before 25/11/2017. The can_occur_before field is important as some events may happen before their stated date.
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.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
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.
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.
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.
