Give new tasks a visual starting cue

Starting a task can be the hardest step when your list keeps growing. Let Notis find a sticker that reflects the task's intent as soon as its page is created.

Trigger

Page Created

Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.

Action

GIPHY Translate Sticker

Tool to translate a term or phrase into a single sticker using GIPHY’s translation algorithm. Use after confirming the exact phrase to visualize as a sticker.

Why this helps

New tasks often join the backlog without a clear cue to help you orient to them.

  • Make new work more recognizable at a glance.
  • Get a visual prompt without stopping to browse for one.
  • Tie the sticker search to task details already recorded in Notion.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Giphy to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis through a connected channel.
  • 3Give one instruction: when a Notion page is created, translate its task intent into a Giphy sticker and return the result.
  • 4Pick the Page Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by creating one real task page and reviewing the result.

Questions about this workflow

Will this run for every new page?

The Page Created trigger can be scoped to a data source or parent page. Choose the scope that fits your task pages.

Does it change task status?

No. It retrieves a sticker and sends the result through your selected channel.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Giphy actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Giphy Analytics Register

Tool to register user interactions (view, click, send) with a GIF for analytics. Use when you have the analytics payload, timestamp, and user ID to record the event.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Emoji Variations

Tool to fetch variations for a specific emoji. Use when you have an emoji's GIF ID and want its variations.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get GIF by ID

Tool to fetch GIF metadata by its unique ID. Use when you have a valid GIF ID to retrieve metadata.

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

Get GIFs by IDs

Tool to fetch metadata for multiple GIFs by their IDs. Use when you need information on up to 100 known GIF IDs.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Get Sticker by ID

Tool to fetch sticker metadata by its unique ID. Use when you have a valid sticker ID to retrieve metadata.

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

Get Stickers by IDs

Tool to fetch metadata for multiple stickers by their IDs. Use when you need information on up to 100 known sticker IDs.

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

GIPHY Categories

Tool to fetch a list of GIF categories on GIPHY. Use when you need to browse available categories before selecting one.

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.

TriggerInstant

GIPHY: Get Category by ID

Tool to fetch metadata for a GIF category by its unique ID. Use when you need details for a specific category identifier.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and Giphy, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
