Give new Notion databases a clear introduction

A new database can become another place to look. Introduce its purpose in Dailybot so the team knows when and how to use 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

Send Message

This tool allows sending a message through dailybot to either specific users or channels/rooms. the message can include markdown formatting.

Why this helps

New workspaces and trackers create confusion when teammates do not know why they exist or whether they should use them.

  • Give teammates context before a new tracker spreads.
  • Help people find the right place to add information.
  • Reduce uncertainty about which database to use.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Dailybot to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to introduce newly created Notion databases in Dailybot.
  • 3Describe the intended introduction in one plain-language prompt and select Database Created.
  • 4Choose a run-report channel and test with a newly created sample database.

Questions about this workflow

Does this fire when a data source is added to an existing database?

No. Database Created covers creation of the database container. Use Data Source Created for a new data source in an existing database.

Can Notis explain the database purpose?

Ask it to use the available database context and keep the announcement focused on the intended audience.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Dailybot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

Dailybot actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Find User by UUID

This tool allows you to find and retrieve information about a specific user in dailybot. it uses the provided user uuid to lookup the user and returns detailed information including the user's uuid, full name, image, username, occupation, birth date, chat platform data, and organization details.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Find Workflow by Name

This tool allows users to find a specific workflow within dailybot by providing the workflow name. it returns detailed information including the workflow id, workflow name, workflow status, workflow type, created at, and updated at. it is especially useful to locate a workflow before running or modifying it.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Get All Users

This tool retrieves a list of all users within the organization from dailybot. it doesn't require any input parameters other than authentication. the returned json contains user details including uuid, active status, full name, and organizational data.

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

Get Workflows List

This tool retrieves a list of all workflows that the authenticated user has access to in dailybot. it can be executed independently with only the authentication required, and it supports optional pagination parameters (page, per page) to refine the response.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Give Kudos to Users

This tool allows giving kudos to one or multiple users in dailybot. kudos can be given either on behalf of dailybot or the api key owner.

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.

Send Message

This tool allows sending a message through dailybot to either specific users or channels/rooms. the message can include markdown formatting.

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

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.
