Surface calendar events referenced in Notion comments

Someone comments on a Notion page asking when is that call again, and now you are digging through the calendar to answer. Notis reads the new comment, finds the related Google Calendar event, and hands back the details, so the answer comes to you instead of costing another tab dive.

Trigger

New Comment

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

Action

Find event

Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.

Why this helps

Comments reference meetings without the details, forcing a stop-and-search across the calendar every time you want context.

  • Meeting details come to you instead of you hunting for them
  • No tab-switching to answer a simple when question
  • Comments stay in context with the event attached
  • Faster replies without breaking your current focus

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Google Calendar to Notis from the portal.
  • 2Open Automations, click New Automation, or ask Notis in chat.
  • 3Describe it: when a new comment on a Notion page mentions a meeting, find the matching Google Calendar event and return its details.
  • 4Pick the New Comment trigger for the block or page to watch and choose the channel for results.
  • 5Test by commenting a meeting reference and confirming Notis returns the event.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis match the comment to an event?

It searches your calendar with the text and timing from the comment, using your plain-language instruction to know what to look for.

What if there are several matching events?

Notis returns the closest matches so you can pick, rather than guessing at a single one.

Can it watch a specific page only?

Yes. The New Comment trigger scopes to the block or page you choose, so it only reacts where you want.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Google Calendar actions

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Insert Calendar into List

Inserts an existing calendar into the user's calendar list.

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

Update Calendar List Entry

Updates an existing entry on the user\'s calendar list.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Delete Calendar

Deletes a secondary calendar. use calendars.clear for clearing all events on primary calendars.

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

Update Calendar

Updates metadata for a calendar.

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

Clear Calendar

Clears a primary calendar. this operation deletes all events associated with the primary calendar of an account.

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

Create Event

Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

ActionInstant

New Page

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

TriggerPolling

Delete event

Deletes a specified event by `event id` from a google calendar (`calendar id`); this action is idempotent and raises a 404 error if the event is not found.

ActionInstant

Page Added to Page

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

TriggerPolling

Create a calendar

Creates a new, empty google calendar with the specified title (summary).

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Notion and Google Calendar. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
