Look up the historical rate for a new transaction
Add a dated transaction and get the exchange rate for that date as a review aid.
Trigger
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Action
Get Historical Rates
Tool to get historical exchange rate data for a specific date. use when you need past currency rates for all or selected currencies.
Why this helps
New transaction records often need a past rate, and looking it up separately can derail data entry.
- Use the transaction's recorded date for a historical lookup.
- Keep data entry and rate review in one workflow.
- Reduce the chance of using a current rate by mistake.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Fixer to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a prompt to read the date and currency pair from a new transaction row, fetch the historical Fixer rate, and report it.
- 3Select the Notion New Page trigger for the transaction database and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one dated transaction row.
Questions about this workflow
Does Fixer retrieve a rate for any date?
The action is intended for historical exchange-rate data for a specific date; include that date in the record.
Will this write back to the transaction?
No. It reports the lookup so you can decide what to record.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Fixer. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get Supported Symbols

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.
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.
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.
