Check Instagram media after Notion content status changes

Pair an important Notion content update with a current look at published Instagram media.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

Get User Media

Get instagram user's media (posts, photos, videos).

Why this helps

A status change may mark a post as published, but the final check can get lost in a busy day.

  • Adds a media check to a content status change.
  • Helps confirm publication without a separate manual profile visit.
  • Keeps the check connected to the Notion content process.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Instagram to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to fetch Instagram media when a Notion content status changes to the state used for publication checks.
  • 3Select the Notion Page Properties Updated trigger for the content database and choose a report channel.
  • 4Test with one real status update and confirm the fetched media supports the check.

Questions about this workflow

Does fetching media confirm that a specific post was published?

The action returns user media. Ask Notis to compare it with the Notion item and inspect the result during setup.

Can every property update trigger this?

The trigger can run on property updates. State the relevant status condition in the prompt and test that case.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Instagram actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

TriggerPolling

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 Conversation

Get details about a specific instagram dm conversation (participants, etc).

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Get Post Comments

Get comments on an instagram post.

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 Post Insights

Get instagram post insights/analytics (impressions, reach, engagement, etc.).

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

Get Post Status

Check the processing status of a draft post container.

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

Get instagram user info including profile details and statistics.
