Move client onboarding into contract signing

Make the agreement step part of the onboarding flow you already track.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

Create Contract

Tool to create a new contract using a specified template and signer details. use after selecting a template when you need to send a contract for signature.

Why this helps

Onboarding status changes can be separated from contract preparation, leaving a new client unsure what happens next.

  • Connects onboarding progress to the agreement handoff.
  • Reduces the need to create a separate reminder task.
  • Supports a more predictable start for each client.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Esignatures.io to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation for client onboarding records entering the agreement stage.
  • 3Describe in one plain-language instruction how to identify that stage and choose the appropriate template and signer.
  • 4Pick Page Properties Updated for the onboarding database, select a reporting channel, and test one status change.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Esignatures io actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Create Contract

Tool to create a new contract using a specified template and signer details. use after selecting a template when you need to send a contract for signature.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Create Signer

Tool to create a new signer profile. use when you need to add a signer to an existing signature request.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Create Template

Tool to create a new template. use when you want to register a reusable contract template after defining document elements.

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

Delete Template

Tool to delete a specific template by its id. use when you need to remove an unused or outdated template after confirming its id.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Get Template

Tool to retrieve details of a specific template by its id. use when you need to fetch a template’s metadata after selecting its id.

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

List Templates

Tool to retrieve a list of all templates. use when you need to browse available templates before selecting one.

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

Withdraw Contract

Tool to withdraw a contract by its id. use when you need to prevent further signing of a contract that hasn't been fully signed.

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.
