Include form folders in database setup
Creating a database is a good moment to check how related forms are organized. Notis can retrieve your Jotform folders as a prompt.
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
Get User Folders
Tool to retrieve a list of folders created by the authenticated user. use when you need to enumerate user folders after confirming valid api credentials.
Why this helps
A new database can create hidden setup tasks across tools, especially when organizing forms is not part of the immediate build.
- Bring form organization into a database setup checkpoint.
- See your existing folders when workspace structure changes.
- Reduce the mental effort of remembering related setup steps.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Jotform to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set one up.
- 3Describe one instruction to retrieve Jotform folders when a Notion database is created.
- 4Select Database Created as the trigger.
- 5Choose the run-report channel and test by creating a real database container.
Questions about this workflow
Does this detect a new data source inside an existing database?
No. Database Created is for the container creation event; use Data Source Created for a new data source.
Does the workflow organize folders?
It only retrieves the folder list for your review.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Jotform. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Jotform actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get System Plan
Tool to retrieve details of a specific system plan. use when you need to check limits and pricing of a plan.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get User Details
Tool to retrieve details of the authenticated user, including account and usage info. use after confirming valid api key.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get User Folders
Tool to retrieve a list of folders created by the authenticated user. use when you need to enumerate user folders after confirming valid api credentials.
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.
Get User Forms
Tool to retrieve a list of forms created by the authenticated user. use after setting up api key authentication.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get User History
Tool to fetch user activity history records. use when auditing or filtering user actions by type or date.
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.
Get User Settings
Tool to retrieve the settings of the authenticated user. use after confirming a valid api key.
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.
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.
