Apply domain logging choices from a Notion policy page
When a Notion policy page is edited, update domain logging on the designated NextDNS profile if the change states a clear preference.
Set NextDNS block page preference from Notion
When a Notion preference is updated, enable or disable the NextDNS block page on the named configuration.
Block a risky TLD from a Notion security comment
When a security comment clearly requests blocking a top-level domain, add it to the selected NextDNS profile after checking current security settings.
Apply an AI threat detection decision
Use a clear Notion security preference update to enable or disable AI threat detection for the named NextDNS configuration.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Nextdns. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Nextdns actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Blocked TLD
Tool to add a top-level domain to the security blocklist for a nextdns profile. use after listing current security settings to ensure the tld is not already blocked.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add Denylist Domain
Tool to add a domain to the denylist of a nextdns profile. use when blocking specific domains under a profile after obtaining its id.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Toggle Block Page
Tool to enable or disable block page for a configuration. use when you need to toggle whether dns blocks show a block page.
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.
Clear Logs
Tool to clear dns logs for a nextdns profile. use when you want to remove all existing query logs for a given profile. note: this operation cannot be undone.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Create Profile
This tool allows users to create a new nextdns profile. it uses the post method at the endpoint https://api.nextdns.io/profiles. a profile is a distinct configuration set for dns filtering and security settings.
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.
Delete NextDNS Configuration
Tool to delete a nextdns configuration profile. use when you need to remove an existing profile by its id. use after confirming the profile exists.
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.
Download Logs
Tool to download dns logs for a profile. use when you need the url of the exported logs. use after confirming the profile id is valid. supports getting a redirect url or json.
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 Analytics Devices
Tool to retrieve analytics aggregated by devices. use when you need per-device query metrics within a specific time frame.
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.
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.
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.
