Examples

Ways Notis can move work from Notion to Maintainx

View example

Turn facility issues into MaintainX work orders

Create a MaintainX work order when a new Notion issue record is added, so maintenance requests have a clear home.

View example

Escalate urgent equipment repairs

When a Notion maintenance record is updated to signal urgency, have Notis create a prioritized MaintainX work order.

View example

Start maintenance when equipment is documented

Create a MaintainX work order when a new Notion equipment page calls for initial inspection or setup.

View example

Add Notion maintenance comments to work orders

Send a new Notion maintenance comment to the matching MaintainX work order as an update for the people handling it.

View example

Turn documented checklist gaps into work orders

When a Notion inspection page is edited with a maintenance gap, ask Notis to open a MaintainX work order.

View example

Create maintenance follow-up from project subpages

When a facility project gains a relevant Notion subpage, create a MaintainX work order for the maintenance task it describes.

View example

Add equipment log updates to MaintainX

When a Notion equipment log block changes, add the relevant update as a comment on the corresponding work order.

View example

Keep work order details aligned with Notion

When a maintenance request's Notion properties change, update the matching MaintainX work order details.

View example

Turn maintenance comments into work requests

Create a MaintainX work order when a relevant Notion comment reports a new maintenance need.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Maintainx actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Create Work Order

This tool creates a new work order in maintainx. it uses the post /api/v1/workorders endpoint. the tool requires a 'title' for the work order and offers several optional parameters including description, priority, duedate, startdate, userids, teamids, proceduretemplateid, locationid, assetid, and categories.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Create Work Order Comment

This tool creates a new comment on an existing work order in maintainx. it allows users to add comments for documentation, updates, or communication purposes within a specific work order. it requires a workorderid and the text content of the comment to create a new comment on the work order, providing capabilities to update maintenance work order records.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Create Work Request Portal

Creates a new work request portal in maintainx. a work request portal allows users to submit work requests through a dedicated url. the portal can be customized with a title, welcome text, and description placeholder. it can be associated with a specific location and asset, and can be configured to require email contact information.

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

Find Entity

A tool to search and find specific entities within maintainx by specified fields. this tool allows users to search for different types of entities including work orders, users, and locations.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

List Assets

This tool allows users to retrieve a list of all assets in their organization.

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

List Categories

This tool retrieves a list of all categories in your maintainx organization. categories are used to organize and classify work orders, assets, and other items in the system. it supports listing the categories with pagination and provides details such as category id, name, description, and timestamps for creation and update.

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

List Locations

This tool retrieves a list of all available locations in the organization's maintainx account. the locations can be physical places where assets are located, work is performed, or maintenance is needed.

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

List Teams

This tool retrieves a list of all teams in your maintainx organization.

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
