Clean up retired collections from an explicit Notion archive decision
Record a final archive decision in Notion and have Notis delete the matching Countdown collection when it is no longer running.
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
Delete Collection
Tool to delete a collection and its configuration by ID. Use when you need to remove an existing, non-running collection.
Why this helps
Old collections can clutter operations and make it harder to find active research.
- Remove a retired collection after an explicit archive decision.
- Keep the active collection list easier to scan.
- Connect cleanup to a durable decision recorded in Notion.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Countdown api to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally for this workflow.
- 3State in one plain-language instruction the explicit retirement signal and the exact collection to delete.
- 4Pick the Notion Page Properties Updated trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test the decision using a safe example.
Questions about this workflow
Can this delete a running collection?
The Countdown api action is for an existing, non-running collection.
What should the Notion prompt specify?
Make the retirement signal and collection identification unambiguous, then test with a safe example.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Countdown api. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Countdown api actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Clear Collection Requests
Tool to clear all requests from a specified collection. Use when you need to remove all queued requests for an idle collection.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create a new collection
Tool to create a new collection. Use when you need to batch and orchestrate multiple requests on a schedule.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get Collection
Tool to retrieve details for a single collection by ID. Use when you need collection metadata and counts for a given collection ID.
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.
List Collections
Tool to list all collections for the authenticated account. Use when you need to retrieve paginated collections with filtering, sorting, and timing constraints.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Start Collection
Tool to start processing a collection's queued requests. Use after creating or pausing a collection to initiate its queued requests.
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.
Update an existing collection
Tool to update an existing collection. Use when you need to modify collection settings before scheduling runs.
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.
eBay Autocomplete
Tool to fetch eBay autocomplete suggestions. Use when needing search-term-based suggestions from Countdown API.
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 Destination
Tool to create a destination. Use when you need to set up a new destination for results or notifications.
