Give URL research discussions a shared category reference

When a comment raises a classification question, bring the X-Force URL category list into the follow-up report.

Trigger

New Comment

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

Action

Get URL Category List

Tool to retrieve the complete list of URL categories from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to understand available URL classification categories used by XFE.

Why this helps

Questions raised in comments can wait while someone searches for the classification reference.

  • Turns a comment into a lightweight research follow-up.
  • Keeps discussion and reference lookup connected.
  • Helps collaborators use the same category vocabulary.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and IBM X-Force Exchange to Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve URL categories when a comment is added to the selected research page and report the reference.
  • 4Choose New Comment and set the page or block scope; select a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with a real comment on that page.

Questions about this workflow

How is this different from Comment Created?

New Comment is intended for comments on a specified Notion block or page. Comment Created can be workspace-wide or filtered by page.

Does it look up the commented URL?

No. It retrieves the URL category list only, not a reputation or classification for a specific URL.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to IBM X-Force Exchange. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

IBM X-Force Exchange actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Get Latest Public Collections

Tool to retrieve latest public Collections from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to access publicly available collections without pagination. For fetching all public collections, consider using the paginated endpoint instead.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Get Public Collections Paginated

Tool to retrieve all public Collections using pagination from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to access publicly available collections with pagination support. Returns a list of publicly accessible case files with pagination metadata.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get IPR Category List

Tool to retrieve the complete list of IP reputation categories from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to understand available IPR classification categories used by XFE.

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

Get URL Category List

Tool to retrieve the complete list of URL categories from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to understand available URL classification categories used by XFE.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Get User Profile Information

Tool to retrieve authenticated user's profile information from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to access user account details, membership statistics, or integration configurations.

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 Current API Version

Tool to retrieve current running API version information from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to check the API version, build number, or creation date.

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

Generate API Key and Password

Tool to generate a new API key and password pair for IBM X-Force Exchange authentication. Use when you need to create new credentials for API access. The generated credentials do not expire and can be used with Basic Authentication.

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

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and IBM X-Force Exchange, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
