Explain a new database before it becomes confusing
A new database is easier to use when people know what it is for. Create a short guide that explains its role and how collaborators should approach it.
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
Create Page
Tool to create a new confluence page in a specified space. use when you need to create new documentation or content.
Why this helps
New databases can accumulate rows before anyone understands their purpose or conventions.
- Make a database's purpose explicit from the start.
- Give collaborators a shared orientation point.
- Reduce repeated explanations about where information belongs.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Confluence to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation from the portal or tell Notis conversationally what should happen.
- 3Ask Notis in one plain-language prompt to create a Confluence usage guide when a Notion database is created, covering its purpose and intended users based on available context.
- 4Select the Notion Database Created trigger and choose a run-report channel.
- 5Test with one real database creation and review whether the guide provides useful orientation.
Questions about this workflow
Is database creation different from adding a data source?
Yes. Database Created refers to the container being created. Adding a data source to an existing database has a separate trigger.
What if the database has little context at creation time?
Ask Notis to use the available context and keep the guide concise. The prompt can request a clear note when purpose details are missing.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Confluence. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Confluence actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Content Label
Tool to add labels to a piece of content. use after obtaining the content id to tag pages or blog posts with metadata labels.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get Space by ID
Tool to retrieve a confluence space by its id. use when you need detailed metadata of a specific space.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Create Blogpost
Tool to create a new confluence blog post. use when you need to publish content in a specific space.
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.
Create Blogpost Property
Tool to create a property on a specified blog post. use when you need to add custom metadata to a blog post.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Create Whiteboard Property
Tool to create a new content property on a whiteboard. use when you need to attach custom metadata to a confluence whiteboard.
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.
Create Page
Tool to create a new confluence page in a specified space. use when you need to create new documentation or content.
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.
Create Page Property
Tool to create a property on a confluence page. use when you need to add custom metadata or settings to a page.
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.
Create Private Space
Tool to create a private confluence space. use when you need an isolated workspace viewable only by its creator.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Notion and Confluence, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
