Revisit policy references after a database structure change

A changed Notion data source can remind you to refresh the category context used in policy documentation.

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

List All Categories

Tool to list all categories including internal categories. use when you need the complete set of filtering categories.

Why this helps

A new or renamed policy field can leave supporting references stale until a later cleanup.

  • Tie a category lookup to a structural documentation change.
  • Make policy-reference cleanup more visible.
  • Avoid relying on memory to revisit the supporting material.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and DNSFilter to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to retrieve DNSFilter categories when the relevant policy data source schema changes.
  • 4Select the Notion Data Source Schema Updated trigger and a channel for reports.
  • 5Test with one planned schema change or a representative real event.

Questions about this workflow

Does this run for each changed property?

The trigger signals a data source schema update. The workflow should be validated against the events your Notion connection receives.

Can it revise the Notion schema?

No. The selected DNSFilter action only lists categories.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Dnsfilter actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Create IP Address

Tool to create a new ip address in dnsfilter. use after confirming the target network id exists.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Get Application Category

Tool to get basic information of a specific application category. use when you need details for a given application category id.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

TriggerPolling

Get Billing Information

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.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Get IP Address

Tool to get basic information of the specified ip address. use when you need to fetch metadata for a particular ip after authentication.

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.

List All Categories

Tool to list all categories including internal categories. use when you need the complete set of filtering categories.

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

List All IP Addresses

Tool to list all user-associated ip addresses. use when you need a comprehensive list of all ip address entries in your organization.

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

List All MAC Addresses

Tool to list all mac addresses with basic information. use when you need to retrieve all mac address entries in your organization.
