Review open work alongside updated notes

When maintenance notes change, ask Notis to check related MaintainX work orders so the next step is easier to see.

Trigger

Page Content Updated

Triggers when the body content of a Notion page is updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any page content edit in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion aggregates content edits within a short window (~60s typical).

Action

List Work Orders

Action to list work orders from maintainx.

Why this helps

Updated notes may contain the latest plan while the work order queue still reflects an older picture.

  • Makes relevant work order status easier to check.
  • Reduces tool switching during maintenance planning.
  • Helps spot work that may need a follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and MaintainX to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or describe the check to Notis.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to list related MaintainX work orders when a maintenance notes page changes.
  • 4Choose Page Content Updated and scope it to the maintenance page or data source.
  • 5Test by making one real update and reviewing the returned work orders.

Questions about this workflow

Does this update the work order?

No. List Work Orders retrieves work order information for review.

Can content edits arrive together?

Notion aggregates page content edits within a short window, so several changes may be represented by one trigger.

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.
