Automatically log Notion page block updates to BigQuery

Changes to individual blocks in Notion get scattered and lost. Notis logs each block update (text edits, embeds added, images changed) to BigQuery so you have a detailed edit history.

Trigger

Page Updated

Triggers when any block within a specified Notion page is updated.

Action

Query

Query tool will run a sql query in bigquery. note: make sure the query being input in a single line format. for example, select * from sample dataset.sample table where column name = 'value'

Why this helps

Page edits are recorded but individual block changes are invisible. You can't see if someone added an image, changed formatting, or modified an embedded table.

  • Detailed block-level edit history without reviewing Notion manually
  • Track when images are added, embeds changed, or text reformatted
  • Build content versioning systems on block change logs
  • Audit page structure changes over time

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion workspace to Notis.
  • 2Connect Google BigQuery to Notis.
  • 3Tell Notis: 'When any block in a Notion page is updated, log the page ID, page title, block type (text/image/embed/etc), update timestamp, and editor email to BigQuery.'
  • 4Select 'Page Updated' as the trigger and optionally scope to a specific page.
  • 5Pick your reporting channel.
  • 6Test by editing a block in a Notion page (add text, change formatting, add an image) and verifying the record in BigQuery.

Questions about this workflow

What counts as a block update?

Any change to content, formatting, embeds, images, or other block properties. Notion groups these into one 'Page Updated' event.

Is this different from 'Page Content Updated'?

'Page Content Updated' logs body text changes. 'Page Updated' is broader and includes all block types.

Can I filter to track specific pages?

Yes. Notis can scope to log updates from only certain pages or databases.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Google BigQuery actions

All Page Events

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

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

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

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

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

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

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

TriggerPolling

Page Added to Page

Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.
