Prepare social image crops from Notion

A new social asset record can trigger a crop-ready rendering, keeping format preparation close to the publishing plan.

Trigger

New Page

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

Action

IMGIX_CROP

Tool to control cropping alignment and behavior using Imgix's 'crop' parameter.

Why this helps

Repeatedly adjusting image crops for each social format creates avoidable friction before publishing.

  • Makes image crop preparation repeatable
  • Keeps social asset steps with the publishing plan
  • Reduces manual crop adjustments

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Imgix to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally for the desired social crop outcome.
  • 3Use one instruction to describe which new social asset pages qualify and how Imgix should crop their images.
  • 4Choose the Notion New Page trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a new social asset page and inspect the crop.

Questions about this workflow

Can crops vary by social format?

Describe the needed format in the page context and in your instruction. The Imgix crop action controls crop alignment and behavior.

Does cropping change my source file?

The action controls the Imgix-rendered output. Keep your original image source available for other compositions.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Imgix actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Imgix Auto Optimization

Tool to apply automatic best-effort image optimizations. Use when you need to compress, enhance, format, or remove redeye via Imgix's auto parameter.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Blend Overlay

Tool to overlay an image, text, or color onto a base image using imgix blending parameters. Use after specifying the base image URL and blend parameters to composite layers.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Imgix Blend Align

Tool to align the overlay relative to the base image when blending. Use after constructing a base Imgix URL to specify horizontal and vertical alignment (e.g., 'left,top').

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

Blend Color Over Image

Tool to blend a solid color over an image using CSS keyword or hex. Use when you need to apply color overlay transformations to an existing image URL.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Imgix Blend X Position

Tool to position the overlay horizontally on an Imgix-rendered image. Use when you need to offset the blend layer by a specified number of pixels from the left edge.

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

Draw Image Border

Tool to draw a border around an image. Use when you need to overlay a border without resizing.

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

Adjust Image Brightness

Tool to adjust image brightness. Use when you need to modify an image's brightness level (−100 to 100) by supplying your source domain and asset path.

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

IMGIX_CH

Tool to opt in to Client Hints. Use when you want Imgix URLs to adapt based on browser headers (Width, DPR, Save-Data).

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and Imgix, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
