Check technical documentation when your workflow changes

A changed Notion data structure can prompt a repository question about related systems, conventions, and documentation to review.

Trigger

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.

Action

Ask question

Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered, context-grounded response. Args: repoName: GitHub repository or list of repositories (max 10) in owner/repo format question: The question to ask about the repository

Why this helps

Structural changes to a workspace can leave technical documentation or connected processes out of sync unless someone remembers to check.

  • Prompt a consistent review when a data source structure changes.
  • Surface repository conventions that may affect dependent work.
  • Make follow-up research easier to assign and track.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Devin MCP to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or request it from Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one instruction asking Devin to research repository conventions or docs related to the changed Notion schema and list questions to investigate.
  • 4Select Notion's Data Source Schema Updated trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real schema change and confirm the result is framed as review context, not an automatic update.

Questions about this workflow

Will this update Notion or repository schemas?

No. Devin answers a repository question; it does not change either system's schema.

Why trigger on the schema event?

It provides a structural-change signal, which can prompt review without treating every row property update as a new schema concern.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Recurring trigger

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

Read wiki contents

View documentation about a GitHub repository. Args: repoName: GitHub repository in owner/repo format (e.g. "facebook/react")

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.

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

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.

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.
