Make new data sources easier to use well

A new place to capture work needs a little guidance. Generate a short note that shows contributors what useful context looks like.

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

Create Chat Completion

Tool to generate a chat-based completion for a conversation. Use when you have a list of prior messages and need the model’s next reply.

Why this helps

New data sources attract incomplete entries when people do not know what information will help later.

  • Set expectations for useful entries early.
  • Reduce clarifying back-and-forth caused by missing context.
  • Make new workspace structures easier to adopt.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Groqcloud to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or by asking Notis conversationally.
  • 3In one plain-language prompt, ask Groqcloud to draft short intake guidance for the new data source and list any assumptions as questions.
  • 4Select the Notion Data Source Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real new data source and adjust the guidance to fit how contributors work.

Questions about this workflow

Does this run when I create a database?

It runs when a data source is created. A database container creation is a separate event and has its own trigger.

Can it infer every property in the source?

Ask Groqcloud to use the available event context and call out missing details instead of inventing property requirements.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Retrieve Model

Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific model. Use after listing models when you need metadata for a chosen model.

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

List Models

Tool to list all available models. Use when you need to fetch supported models and their metadata.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

List TTS Voices

Tool to retrieve available TTS voices for Groq PlayAI models. Use when you need to discover voice options before calling text-to-speech. Note: static list maintained manually; no live endpoint exists.

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 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.
