Turn a charity idea page into a Daffy search

Write down a charitable idea once. Notis can use the new Notion page to find relevant Daffy nonprofits for you to review.

Trigger

Page Created

Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.

Action

Search Non-Profits

Tool to search non-profit organizations by cause id and query text. use when you need to find nonprofits matching a search term or a specific cause.

Why this helps

Capturing an idea is easy; remembering to turn it into a useful shortlist is harder when the week gets busy.

  • Give new charitable ideas a clear research follow-up.
  • Reduce the chance that an idea stays only a note.
  • Get a shortlist to consider without committing to a gift.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Daffy to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation through the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one prompt asking Notis to search Daffy's nonprofits when a charity idea page is created and summarize the most relevant candidates for review.
  • 4Choose Page Created for the relevant parent page or data source and pick a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real charity idea page and check the candidates.

Questions about this workflow

Does page creation always give enough context?

No. Tell Notis to ask for more detail when the idea page does not include a useful cause or query.

Will candidates be selected automatically?

No. The results are for your review and decision.

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

TriggerPolling

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

Get Gifts

Tool to retrieve a list of gifts. use when you need to page or filter gifts.

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

Get Non-Profit by EIN

Tool to retrieve information about a non-profit organization by ein. use after confirming the correct nine-digit ein.

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 User Causes

Tool to retrieve a list of causes for a specified user. use after confirming the user id is valid.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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