Check Ip2location credits at database setup

Starting a new security tracker? Get a quick credit check during setup and avoid a surprise interruption later.

Trigger

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.

Action

Check IP2Location API Credits

Tool to check remaining IP2Location API credits. Use after setting up authentication to monitor usage.

Why this helps

Usage limits are easy to forget while focused on building a new tracker or process.

  • Check remaining API credits when a database is created.
  • Make usage visible while setting up a new workflow.
  • Reduce the chance of a lookup interruption catching you off guard.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Ip2location to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
  • 3Ask Notis to check the remaining Ip2location API credits and report the balance when a database is created.
  • 4Choose Notion Database Created and a channel for run reports, then test with a real database creation.

Questions about this workflow

Does this consume IP lookup credits?

It uses the Ip2location credits-check action to retrieve remaining credits; consult your Ip2location account for plan details.

Does it run when a data source is added to an existing database?

No. This selected trigger is for creation of a database container.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Ip2location. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

Ip2location actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Bulk IP Geolocation

Tool to retrieve geolocation information for multiple IP addresses in bulk. Use when you need batch processing of up to 1000 IPs per request.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Check IP2Location API Credits

Tool to check remaining IP2Location API credits. Use after setting up authentication to monitor usage.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

IP2WHOIS Hosted Domains Lookup

Tool to retrieve hosted domains for a given IP address. Use when you need to list domains hosted on an IP.

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

IP2Location Get IP Geolocation

Tool to retrieve geolocation data for an IP address. Use when detailed IP location info is needed.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

IP2Proxy: Get Proxy Detection

Tool to detect if an IP is a proxy, VPN, or TOR exit node. Use when verifying anonymizing services.

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

IP2Location Distance Calculator

Tool to calculate distance between two IPs. Use when geographic separation between two IP addresses is needed.

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

IP2WHOIS Domain WHOIS Lookup

Tool to retrieve WHOIS information for a domain. Use when you need domain registration details.

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

IP2Location List IPs

Tool to list a curated set of test IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Use when sample IPs are needed for IP2Location or IP2Proxy lookups during development or testing.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and Ip2location, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
