Catch changes to Notion database columns

When a property changes, the process around it may need attention. Make the structure change visible.

Trigger

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.

Action

WhatsApp Send Message V2

Tool to send a WhatsApp message via Mocean API. Use when you need to send text, media, template, reaction, or interactive messages on WhatsApp.

Why this helps

Renamed or removed columns can break routines that depend on a familiar database layout.

  • Know when a column is added, removed, or renamed.
  • Get the changed property and action in a message.
  • Review dependent routines before they drift.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Mocean to Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to WhatsApp you when a Notion data source schema changes, including changed property names and actions.
  • 4Select the Notion Data Source Schema Updated trigger and optionally scope it to a data source.
  • 5Rename or add a test property and verify the message.

Questions about this workflow

Does this notify me for each existing row too?

The schema trigger signals structural changes. Notion also emits property update events for existing rows when a column is added.

Can it watch one data source?

Yes. The trigger can be scoped to a specific data source.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Mocean actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Query SMS Message Status V2

Tool to query delivery status of an SMS message. Use after sending an SMS when you need to check its delivery success by msgid.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Voice Dial V2

Tool to initiate an outbound voice call via Mocean API. Use when you need to place a call with a defined command flow.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Voice Download Recording V2

Tool to download a call recording. Use when you need to retrieve the recording audio for a completed call by its UUID.

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

Voice Hangup V2

Tool to hang up an active voice call. Use when you need to terminate an ongoing call by its call UUID immediately.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

WhatsApp Incoming Webhook V2

Tool to receive and return the full incoming WhatsApp webhook payload. Use when you must capture raw webhook JSON (message_id, event_type, event_data) for downstream parsing.

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.

WhatsApp Send Message V2

Tool to send a WhatsApp message via Mocean API. Use when you need to send text, media, template, reaction, or interactive messages on WhatsApp.

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

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.
