Notis

Check new policy text against your reference

When a policy page is created, ask Notis to send the relevant text and reference to Encodian for an exact comparison.

Trigger

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

Action

Compare Text

Tool to compare two text strings and determine if they match. Use when you have two strings and need to verify if they are equal.

Why this helps

Reviewing near-identical policy language line by line takes attention that founders need for higher-impact decisions.

  • Check whether two supplied strings match.
  • Catch exact wording differences during a review.
  • Reduce repetitive side-by-side checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Encodian to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to compare new policy text with the reference wording you specify.
  • 3Select the Notion Page Created trigger for the policy location or database.
  • 4Choose a channel for run reports and test with one matching and one changed sample.

Questions about this workflow

Does Compare Text identify the meaning of a change?

No. It checks whether two text strings match; it does not interpret whether a difference changes the policy's meaning.

What should the prompt specify?

State which supplied policy text to compare and what reference string should be used.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Encodian actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Decode Base64 String

Tool to decode a Base64 string to a file. Use when you need to extract binary content (e.g., PDF, image) from Base64 data.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Base64 Encode

Tool to encode a string to Base64. Use when you need to convert text into Base64 representation for use in other operations.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Compare Text

Tool to compare two text strings and determine if they match. Use when you have two strings and need to verify if they are equal.

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

Hash Data

Tool to compute a cryptographic hash (MD5, SHA256, etc.) of text or file data. Use when you need to verify integrity or generate digests.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Unzip File

Tool to extract files from an archive. Use when you need to unzip a package and retrieve its contents.

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 File Properties

Tool to retrieve properties of a file. Attempts multiple Encodian Filer endpoints and fallbacks.

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

Resize Image

Tool to resize an image by percentage or dimensions. Use when you need to scale or reshape an image with optional aspect-ratio enforcement.

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

Move File

Tool to move a file between containers. Use when you need to relocate a blob within your storage without manually copying then deleting.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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