Start project onboarding with a clear task

A new project page can kick off a JobNimbus onboarding task so setup steps have a visible place to begin.

Trigger

Page Created

Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.

Action

Create Task

Tool to create a new task. use when scheduling or tracking tasks linked to contacts or jobs.

Why this helps

New projects create many small setup steps that are easy to forget while switching between tools.

  • Starts onboarding when a project is recorded.
  • Makes setup work easier to see and track.
  • Reduces the need to remember every kickoff step.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and JobNimbus to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to start JobNimbus onboarding tasks from new project pages.
  • 3Use one instruction describing the onboarding task and the project pages that should trigger it.
  • 4Choose the Notion Page Created trigger, select a channel for reports, and test with one real new project.

Questions about this workflow

Can this create an onboarding task for every project?

Set the trigger to the relevant Notion project page or data source and describe the task you want created.

Will it create a full checklist?

The selected action creates a task. Describe the task in the instruction; the available action is not a checklist builder.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Jobnimbus actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Create Location

Tool to create a new location in jobnimbus. use after gathering address and contact details.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Get Activity by ID

Tool to retrieve a specific activity by its id. use after confirming the activity's jnid is valid.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Get Contact by ID

Tool to retrieve a contact by id. use after obtaining the contact’s jnid to fetch full details.

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

List Contacts

Tool to list all contacts. use when you need to fetch multiple contacts, e.g., for reporting or synchronization.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Create File Attachment Type

Tool to create a new file attachment type. use when you need to register a custom document category before uploading files.

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

Create Material Order

Tool to create a new material order (v2). use when you need to place a materials order for a contact after gathering item details.

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

Create Task

Tool to create a new task. use when scheduling or tracking tasks linked to contacts or jobs.

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

Create Workflow Status

Tool to create a new status in an existing workflow. use after confirming the workflow id to add specialized status entries like 'lead' or 'inspection'.

ActionInstant

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