Alert your team when new Notion tracking tables appear
Someone creates a new database in Notion to track something. Notis adds a sticky to your Mural board instantly so the team doesn't miss it. New tracking tables get visibility right away.
Trigger
Data Source Created
Fires when a new data source is created in the workspace.
Action
Create sticky note
Creates up to 1,000 sticky notes on a Mural board.
Why this helps
New Notion databases are created but not everyone knows, so you end up with duplicated tracking efforts or team members unaware of new resources.
- Team knows about new databases immediately
- Prevent duplicate tracking efforts
- Discover new resources without hunting
- Centralized awareness on your Mural board
Setup

- 4Choose the 'Data Source Created' trigger.
- 5Set your notification channel.
- 6Test by creating a new Notion data source and checking for the Mural sticky.
Questions about this workflow
Will this work for template-based databases that create multiple sources at once?
Yes, Notis will create a note for each data source that appears, so you'll see all of them.
Can I filter which new sources create notes?
Mention in your prompt that you only want to see sources in certain teamspaces or with specific naming patterns.
Do I need to manually add anything to get the team's attention?
Your prompt can ask Notis to tag team members or use specific language to make sure the sticky stands out.
