Give every new contact a home in Nutshell
Add a person in Notion and have Notis create a corresponding Nutshell contact, so names and context are easier to retrieve when it is time to reconnect.
Trigger
Page Created
Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.
Action
Create Contacts
Tool to create one or more contacts in Nutshell CRM. Use when you need to add new contacts to the system. Each contact must have at least one identifier field (name, phone, email, address, or url).
Why this helps
Contact details gathered during a busy day can remain stranded in notes instead of being available where follow-up happens.
- Keep newly captured people discoverable in Nutshell.
- Reduce repeated typing between intake notes and CRM records.
- Make it easier to continue a conversation from one place.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Nutshell to Notis through the portal if they are not connected already.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or tell Notis conversationally to create a Nutshell contact when a contact intake page is created in Notion.
- 3Choose the Notion Page Created trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Try one real contact intake page and confirm the contact appears in Nutshell.
Questions about this workflow
What should the Notion page contain?
Include the contact details and context you want Notis to use. The prompt can describe which pages count as contact intake.
Can I create this automation by chatting with Notis?
Yes. Tell Notis the outcome you want in plain language, then choose the appropriate trigger and reporting channel in the portal if needed.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Nutshell. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Nutshell actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Accounts
Tool to create one or more accounts in Nutshell. Use when you need to add new company accounts. Each account must have at least one of: name, phone, email, address, or url.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Custom Field for Accounts
Tool to create a custom field for accounts in Nutshell. Use when you need to add new custom fields to track additional information on company accounts. Supports Text, LongText, Currency, Date, and Decision field types.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Create Activities
Tool to create one or more activities in Nutshell CRM. Use when you need to log a completed activity or schedule a future activity such as phone calls, meetings, emails, or notes. All activity fields are optional except the activities array itself. At minimum, provide a name or activityType for meaningful activities.
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.
Create Contacts
Tool to create one or more contacts in Nutshell CRM. Use when you need to add new contacts to the system. Each contact must have at least one identifier field (name, phone, email, address, or url).
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Create Lead
Tool to create a lead in Nutshell CRM using the JSON-RPC API. Use when you need to add a new lead to the system. The description field is required, while other fields like manualValue, dueTime, customFields, and links are optional.
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 Custom Field for Leads
Tool to create a custom field for leads in Nutshell. Use when you need to add new custom fields to track additional information on leads. Supports Text, Email, Currency, and Date field types.
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.
Create Notes
Tool to create a note in Nutshell. Use when you need to add notes to contacts, leads, accounts, or other entities in Nutshell CRM. The note will be attached to the specified parent entity.
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.
Create Sources
Tool to create new sources in Nutshell CRM. Use when you need to add source tracking for leads or contacts. Sources help categorize where leads originate (e.g., organic search, paid ads).
