Keep business context close to workspace changes

When a Notion page changes, let Notis bring your FreshBooks business directory into the follow-up.

Trigger

All Page Events

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

Action

List Businesses

Tool to list all businesses associated with the authenticated user.

Why this helps

Workspace updates can contain finance-relevant details that are easy to leave disconnected from billing account context.

  • Make a business overview available when workspace work changes.
  • Let the prompt summarize page context without manual copying.
  • Get a consistent run report for finance follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and FreshBooks to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to list FreshBooks businesses when a Notion page is created or updated.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction asking for businesses relevant to the page context and a concise report.
  • 4Choose All Page Events as the trigger, choose a report channel, and test with one real page change.

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

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.

TriggerInstant

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.
