Turn contact requests into prospect searches
When a useful contact request appears in a Notion comment, let Icypeas find people who fit the brief.
Trigger
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.
Action
Find People
Tool to search for people in the leads database. Use when you need to filter people by name, title, company, and other attributes.
Why this helps
Contact requests buried in comments can be easy to miss or forget before anyone starts researching.
- Catch contact requests where they are made.
- Move an informal comment into a concrete people search.
- Lower the chance that teammate asks disappear in page discussions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Icypeas to Notis once in the portal, with Notion comment access enabled.
- 2Create an automation through the portal or tell Notis what it should do.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction asking Notis to search Icypeas for people matching a contact request in a new Notion comment.
- 4Select the Notion Comment Created trigger and choose a channel for reports.
- 5Test by adding one real contact request as a comment and inspect the Icypeas people results.
Questions about this workflow
Does the Notion connection need a special capability?
Yes. The Notion integration needs Read comments access, and may need to be re-authorized after enabling it.
Will every comment start a search?
The trigger can fire for new comments; describe in the instruction which comments contain a suitable request.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Icypeas. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Icypeas actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Bulk Email Search
Tool to start a bulk email search job. Use when you have up to 5000 names and domains to batch-find emails via the ICYPEAS bulk-search endpoint.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Check Search Progress
Tool to check the progress of a search by its ID. Use after initiating a single or bulk search to poll for its processing status.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Domain Scan
Tool to scan a domain for role-based email addresses. Use when you need to discover all role-based emails for a specific domain.
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.
Fetch Bulk Search Info
Tool to fetch information about bulk search files. Use when you need status and pagination details after initiating bulk search operations.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Fetch Subscription Information
Tool to fetch subscription and credit info. Use after obtaining a valid API key.
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.
Find Companies
Tool to search companies in Icypeas database. Use when you need to find companies matching filters like industry, location, or headcount.
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.
Find Company URL
Tool to find a single company profile URL using a company name or domain. Use when you need to initiate a profile-URL search for a given company identifier.
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.
Find People
Tool to search for people in the leads database. Use when you need to filter people by name, title, company, and other attributes.
