Get referred candidates into Lever
Record a referral in Notion and let Notis create the candidate opportunity in Lever.
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 Opportunity
Tool to create a new candidate opportunity in Lever. Use when adding a new candidate to the system with automatic email-based deduplication.
Why this helps
Referrals can sit in a notes page while the founder remembers to re-enter the candidate into the recruiting pipeline.
- Put referred candidates into the recruiting system sooner.
- Keep the referral details that informed the introduction.
- Reduce the chance of a promising referral being forgotten.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Lever to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation and tell Notis to create a Lever opportunity when a new referral page contains candidate details.
- 3Select Page Created for the referral parent page or relevant data source and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real referral page and verify the candidate appears correctly in Lever.
Questions about this workflow
Can this use only referral pages?
Choose a Page Created trigger scoped to the referral data source or parent page, then describe the referral condition in the prompt.
Will it create duplicate opportunities?
Lever's Create Opportunity action includes automatic email-based deduplication. Include the candidate's email when available.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Lever. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Lever actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Opportunity Links
Tool to add links to a contact associated with an opportunity. Use when you need to attach URLs like LinkedIn profiles, GitHub accounts, personal websites, or other social media links to a candidate. Adding new links does not replace existing links.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add Opportunity Sources
Tool to add sources to an opportunity. Use when you need to attribute specific recruitment channels or sources to an existing opportunity.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Add Opportunity Tags
Tool to add tags to an opportunity. Use when you need to append labels or categorize an existing opportunity.
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.
Create Form Submission
Tool to create a completed profile form submission for a candidate's opportunity profile. Use when you need to submit a filled form based on an existing template.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Create Form Template
Tool to create a profile form template for an account. Use when you need to create a new form template with custom fields.
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.
Create Interview
Tool to create an interview on an externally-managed panel in Lever. Use when scheduling a new interview for an opportunity on a panel where externallyManaged is true.
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.
Create Note
Tool to create a note on an opportunity profile or add a threaded comment to an existing note.
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.
Create Opportunity
Tool to create a new candidate opportunity in Lever. Use when adding a new candidate to the system with automatic email-based deduplication.
