Ways Notis can move work from Notion to Gmail
Email a stakeholder the moment a new task lands in Notion
When a new page is added to a Notion database, Notis sends a Gmail email to the right stakeholder so nothing waits in a queue nobody checks.
Send a status update email when a Notion project changes stage
When a Notion page property like Status changes, Notis emails the client or teammate a short update in Gmail so they are never left guessing.
Draft a reply email whenever someone comments in Notion
When a new comment appears in Notion, Notis prepares a Gmail draft answering it so you can respond in one click instead of switching tools.
Email yourself a morning digest of today's Notion tasks
On a schedule you set, Notis reads your Notion tasks and emails you a single Gmail digest so your day starts with one clear list, not ten open tabs.
Turn every new Notion page into a ready-to-send Gmail draft
When a new Notion page is created, Notis writes a Gmail draft based on it so an idea captured in Notion is one click from being an email.
Draft a weekly client update email from your Notion notes
On a weekly schedule, Notis reads your Notion project notes and prepares a Gmail draft update so client comms stop being the thing you dread on Fridays.
Alert your team by email when a Notion doc is edited
When the body of a Notion page changes, Notis emails your team in Gmail so important edits get seen instead of quietly happening in the background.
Reply in the email thread when a teammate comments on the linked Notion page
When a new comment is added to a specific Notion page, Notis replies in the related Gmail thread so the conversation stays in one place for the recipient.
Create a Gmail label for every new client added in Notion
When a new client row is added to your Notion database, Notis creates a matching Gmail label so their emails have a home before the first one arrives.
Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Gmail. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Gmail actions
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Modify email labels
Adds and/or removes specified gmail labels for a message; ensure `message id` and all `label ids` are valid (use 'listlabels' for custom label ids).
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.
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Create label
Creates a new label with a unique name in the specified user's gmail account.
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 Draft
Permanently deletes a specific gmail draft using its id; ensure the draft exists and the user has necessary permissions for the given `user 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.
Delete message
Permanently deletes a specific email message by its id from a gmail mailbox; for `user id`, use 'me' for the authenticated user or an email address to which the authenticated user has delegated access.
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.
Fetch emails
Fetches a list of email messages from a gmail account, supporting filtering, pagination, and optional full content retrieval.
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Fetch message by message ID
Fetches a specific email message by its id, provided the `message id` exists and is accessible to the authenticated `user id`.
Page Added to Page
Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.
Fetch Message by Thread ID
Retrieves messages from a gmail thread using its `thread id`, where the thread must be accessible by the specified `user id`.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
