Keep Notion and NocoDB structures in view

A column change can ripple into the systems you rely on. Have Notis surface the related NocoDB schema for a quick review when Notion's data source changes.

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

Get Table Schema

Tool to retrieve complete schema information for a specific table. Use when you need to understand table structure, field definitions, or available views.

Why this helps

Schema drift can quietly break a process, and remembering to compare systems adds another follow-up to an already busy day.

  • Surfaces the NocoDB table structure when a Notion data source changes.
  • Makes a structural review part of the change itself.
  • Reduces the chance of discovering a mismatch during later work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and NocoDB to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Ask Notis to create an automation that retrieves the related NocoDB table schema when a Notion data source schema changes.
  • 3Select the Notion Data Source Schema Updated trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
  • 4Test with a planned schema change and confirm the schema details arrive in the report channel.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automatically change the NocoDB table?

No. It retrieves the table schema so you can review it; the listed NocoDB action does not edit table columns.

What should the prompt say?

Tell Notis how to identify the corresponding NocoDB table and to retrieve its schema when the Notion data source schema changes.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

NocoDB actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Get User Info

Tool to get authenticated user information including email, name, roles, and profile details. Use when you need to verify user authentication or retrieve the current user's profile information.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Forgot Password

Tool to initiate password reset process by sending a reset email to the user. Use when a user has forgotten their password and needs to receive a password reset link via email.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

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

TriggerPolling

Sign Out User

Tool to sign out the authenticated user and clear their refresh token from the database and cookie. Use when you need to invalidate a user's authentication session and log them out of the NocoDB application.

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

Get Sort Metadata

Tool to retrieve sort configuration by ID from NocoDB. Use when you need to get details about how data is ordered in a specific view.

ActionInstant

New Comment

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

TriggerPolling

Update View Column

Tool to update a column configuration in a view. Use when you need to change column visibility, order, or width in a specific view.

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

Delete View

Tool to delete a view from a NocoDB table. Use when you need to permanently remove a view. This action cannot be undone.

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

Delete Table View Row

Tool to delete a specific row from a table view in NocoDB. Use when you need to remove a single record from a view.

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

Get Integration Info

Tool to retrieve metadata for a specific NocoDB integration by type and subtype. Use when you need to get integration configuration schema, display information, or available capabilities for an integration.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Notion and NocoDB, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
