Move Notion access requests into Freshservice
Make access requests easier to complete by giving them the right Freshservice service request path.
Trigger
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Action
Create Service Request
Create a service request for a catalog item in Freshservice using the v2 API. The catalog item display_id can be found in Admin > Service Catalog by clicking on an item and checking the URL (e.g., /service_catalog/items/1 means display_id=1).
Why this helps
Access needs recorded in a planning database can be delayed if someone must re-enter each request in the service catalog.
- Give access requests a service catalog path.
- Reduce manual re-entry between request tracking and IT service management.
- Make access follow-up more consistent.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Freshservice to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to submit qualifying access requests.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction to create the appropriate Freshservice service request for new Notion access requests.
- 4Select the Notion New Page trigger and choose a run-report channel; identify the catalog item in the instruction if known.
- 5Test with one real access request and verify the resulting Freshservice service request.
Questions about this workflow
What does Freshservice need to create a service request?
The relevant service catalog item must be available; its display ID can be found in Freshservice Admin under Service Catalog.
Can it create tickets instead?
This workflow uses the Create Service Request action for catalog-based access intake.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Freshservice. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Freshservice actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Bulk Update Tickets
Tool to bulk update multiple Freshservice tickets by sequential update calls. Use when you need to update fields across many tickets in absence of a native bulk API.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Service Request
Create a service request for a catalog item in Freshservice using the v2 API. The catalog item display_id can be found in Admin > Service Catalog by clicking on an item and checking the URL (e.g., /service_catalog/items/1 means display_id=1).
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Create Ticket
Tool to create a new ticket. Use when you need to log an incident or service request.
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.
Delete Release
Tool to delete a release from Freshservice. Use when you need to permanently remove a release from the system. This action is irreversible — the release cannot be recovered once deleted.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Delete Solution Article
Tool to delete a solution article from the knowledge base by its ID. This action is irreversible — the article cannot be recovered once deleted. Use this action when you need to permanently remove a solution article from Freshservice.
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.
Delete Solution Category
Tool to delete a solution category in Freshservice. Use this action when you need to remove a solution category that is no longer needed. This action is irreversible — the category cannot be recovered once deleted.
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.
Get Problem Form Fields by Workspace
Tool to list problem form fields. Use when you need to retrieve the form fields available for problems in a specific workspace.
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.
List Release Form Fields
Tool to list release form fields metadata. Use when you need to fetch release field definitions before building or validating release forms.
