Add people to Google groups when their Notion access request is approved

Approved access requests should not linger in a queue. Let a Notion status update prompt the matching Google group addition.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are 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 property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

Add User to Google Workspace Group

Adds a user to a google workspace group with the specified role.

Why this helps

Access requests can get approved in Notion but still require someone to remember a separate admin change.

  • Shorten the delay between approval and group access.
  • Keep the approval decision visible in its original Notion request.
  • Reduce follow-up messages asking whether access was granted.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Google Admin to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal and describe adding the requester to the named group only after approval.
  • 3Select the Notion Page Properties Updated trigger for the request database.
  • 4Choose a run-report channel and test with one approved access request.

Questions about this workflow

Can this act only on approved requests?

Describe the approval condition in the automation prompt and test it with a real approved request.

Can the requester receive a specific group role?

Include the intended role in the plain-language instruction if the Google Admin action supports it.

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.

TriggerPolling

Delete Google Workspace User

Deletes a google workspace user permanently. this action cannot be undone.

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 Google Workspace Group Details

Retrieves detailed information about a google workspace group.

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

Get Google Workspace User Details

Retrieves detailed information about a google workspace user.

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

List Google Workspace Group Members

Lists all members of a google workspace group with optional filtering and pagination.

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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