Check publication options for a new Notion data source
When a new data source starts an editorial process, get a quick list of Curated publications.
Trigger
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.
Action
List Publications
Tool to list all publications accessible by the api key. use when you need to retrieve your publication ids for further api calls. example prompt: "list my publications".
Why this helps
A new planning data source may be ready before anyone has looked up where its issues will be prepared.
- Surface publication choices during data source setup.
- Save the manual step of opening Curated to retrieve publication IDs.
- Give a new editorial structure a practical next step.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Curated to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or describe the task to Notis in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list accessible Curated publications when a new editorial data source is created.
- 4Choose Data Source Created and a reporting channel; test by creating one real data source.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Curated. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Curated actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Draft Issue
Tool to create a draft issue for a publication. use after confirming the publication id. applies default settings if optional fields are omitted.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Collected Link
Tool to create a collected link for a publication. use when you want to add a new link (with url, title, etc.) to a publication's collection.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
List Email Subscribers
Tool to list all email subscribers for a publication. use after confirming the publication 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 Publications
Tool to list all publications accessible by the api key. use when you need to retrieve your publication ids for further api calls. example prompt: "list my publications".
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
List Categories
Tool to list all categories for a publication. use after you have the publication id and need to fetch its categories.
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.
List Issues
Tool to list all issues for a publication. use after you have the publication id and need to fetch its issues (supports pagination).
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.
