Catch handles added to contact notes
Contact handles are often added in freeform notes. Ask Notis to notice relevant page edits, check the new handle, and return the likely result for review.
Trigger
Page Content Updated
Triggers when the body content of a Notion page is 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 page content edit in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion aggregates content edits within a short window (~60s typical).
Action
Get Gender from Username
Tool to determine gender from a username or nickname. Use when you have an alias or handle and want to infer gender from that identifier.
Why this helps
Useful identifiers buried in notes can be missed until someone manually rereads the page.
- Catches handles added to page content.
- Uses the username action for an alias-style identifier.
- Returns a reviewable result through the run channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and GenderAPI.io to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Ask Notis in one plain-language instruction to query a contact handle when a relevant page edit adds one and report the likely result for review.
- 4Choose the Notion Page Content Updated trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by adding a handle to one contact's notes.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis act on any content edit?
The prompt should specify that a contact handle must be added or changed before a lookup is requested.
Is a username lookup conclusive?
No. The result is an inference and may be inconclusive or incorrect.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Genderapi io. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Genderapi io actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Gender API Get Statistics
Tool to retrieve account usage statistics from GenderAPI.io. Use when you need to check remaining API credits and expiry.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Query Gender by First Name
Tool to determine gender by querying first name. Use when you need to infer likely gender for a given name with optional localization hints.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get Gender from Username
Tool to determine gender from a username or nickname. Use when you have an alias or handle and want to infer gender from that identifier.
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.
List Gender API Error Codes
Tool to list all possible error codes returned by Gender API. Use when debugging or validating API responses.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Query gender by email address
Tool to determine gender from an email address. Use when you need to infer gender for personalization after obtaining proper consent.
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.
Query Gender by Full Name
Tool to determine gender from a full name. Extracts the first valid name token and queries the GenderAPI.io single-name endpoint. Use when you have a full name and want to infer likely gender.
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.
