Give a new database a coordination space
When a new database is created, Notis can open a Teams group chat for the people who will maintain it and use it.
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
Create Chat
Creates a new chat; if a 'oneonone' chat with the specified members already exists, its details are returned, while 'group' chats are always newly created.
Why this helps
A new shared database can be built without a clear place to agree on ownership and conventions.
- Give collaborators a shared place to agree on database use.
- Make ownership and upkeep easier to discuss early.
- Avoid starting with scattered one-to-one messages.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Microsoft Teams to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis when to create a Teams group chat for a new relevant database and which collaborators belong in the conversation.
- 4Select Database Created and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Create one test database and verify the group chat is useful and correctly populated.
Questions about this workflow
Can it create a chat for every database?
Tell Notis to create chats only for databases that fit your team's coordination needs.
Does database creation mean a new data source?
This trigger is for the database container's creation event. Adding a data source to an existing database is a separate event.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Microsoft teams. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Microsoft teams actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add member to team
Tool to add a user to a microsoft teams team. use when granting or updating membership for a user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Archive Teams team
Tool to archive a microsoft teams team. use after confirming the team id; returns 202 if accepted.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get all chats
Retrieves all microsoft teams chats a specified user is part of, supporting filtering, property selection, and pagination.
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 all chat messages
Retrieves all messages from a specified microsoft teams chat using the microsoft graph api, automatically handling pagination; ensure `chat id` is valid and odata expressions in `filter` or `select` are correct.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Create online meeting
Use to schedule a new standalone microsoft teams online meeting, i.e., one not linked to any calendar event.
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 Team
Tool to create a new microsoft teams team. use when you need to provision a team with optional template, channels, and members.
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.
Delete Teams team
Tool to delete a microsoft teams team. use after confirming the target team id.
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.
Get team channel
Tool to get a specific channel in a team. use after obtaining valid team and channel ids to fetch channel details.
