Make new Notion views easier to understand

Give useful views a short explanation before they become another unexplained workspace artifact.

Trigger

View Created

Triggers when a new Notion view is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload includes `data.view_type` (`table`, `board`, `gallery`, `calendar`, `list`, `timeline`, `gantt`) and `data.parent` pointing at the view's tree parent (typically the teamspace), so customers can filter downstream.

Action

Create Doc

Tool to create a new doc in Dart. Use when you need to record a new document that the user intends to write down. By default, the created doc will be in the Docs folder unless a specific folder is specified.

Why this helps

New views can be hard to interpret later when no one remembers the question they were meant to answer.

  • Capture the intended use while it is fresh.
  • Help teammates choose the right view.
  • Reduce confusion from similarly named workspace views.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Dart to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3Ask Notis to create a Dart doc for each new Notion view with its available context and prompts for purpose and audience.
  • 4Choose the Notion View Created trigger and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Create one representative view and review the guide doc.

Questions about this workflow

Does the event indicate the view type?

Yes. Its context includes the view type and parent, which Notis can use in the guide.

Can this help with views that need an owner?

Ask Notis to include an owner prompt in the Dart doc.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Dart actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Add Task Comment

Tool to create a new comment on a DART task. Use when you need to add feedback, notes, or discussion to a specific task. Supports markdown formatting and threaded replies via parentId.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Add Task Time Tracking

Tool to add a time tracking entry to a DART task. Use when you need to record time spent on a specific task. The finishedAt timestamp must be after startedAt.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Create Doc

Tool to create a new doc in Dart. Use when you need to record a new document that the user intends to write down. By default, the created doc will be in the Docs folder unless a specific folder is specified.

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

Create Task

Tool to create a new task in DART with title and optional metadata. Use when you need to add a task to a workspace.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Delete Doc

Tool to move an existing doc to the trash where it can be recovered if needed. Use when you need to delete a doc without permanently removing it.

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

Delete Task

Tool to delete an existing task in Dart by moving it to trash. Use when a task needs to be removed but can be recovered later.

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 User Space Configuration

Tool to retrieve workspace configuration including dartboards, folders, types, statuses, and more. Use when you need to understand available options in the workspace.

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 Doc

Tool to retrieve an existing doc with metadata and content. Use when you need to access a specific document's details including title, folder, and text content.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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