Review Google groups when a new Notion data source is created

A new data source can mark a meaningful process change. Use that event to check the Google groups already available to support it.

Trigger

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.

Action

List Google Workspace Groups

Lists google workspace groups with optional filtering and pagination.

Why this helps

Additional data sources can expand a process without making its supporting team groups obvious.

  • Bring current group information into data source setup.
  • Reduce extra searches during process expansion.
  • Keep setup reviews tied to the structural change.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Google Admin to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe listing Google groups when a relevant data source is created.
  • 3Select the Notion Data Source Created trigger and state in the prompt which sources matter.
  • 4Choose a channel for run reports and test with one real data source addition.

Questions about this workflow

Can one database template trigger this more than once?

Yes. A template may create multiple data sources, producing one event per data source.

Does this update group membership?

No. It lists groups for review.

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.

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.

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.
