Give new market data sources an industry starting point
A new Notion data source can prompt Akta to translate the market topic you are exploring into industry codes.
Trigger
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.
Action
Akta Industry Search
Resolve a free-text industry topic into industry codes.
Why this helps
Starting a new research source often means repeating the same market classification work.
- Make industry lookup part of research setup.
- Get codes from a free-text topic with Akta.
- Spend less effort recreating classification notes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Akta to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with one plain-language instruction for industry topics represented by new data sources.
- 3Select Notion's Data Source Created trigger.
- 4Pick a run-report channel and test with one real data source.
Questions about this workflow
Can one template create several trigger events?

Akta Company Enrichment
Enrich a company with firmographics, business model, headcount, website traffic, funding, financials, founders, acquisitions, and investment data.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Akta News
Fetch enriched news articles for a company, open-ended topic, or industry — funding rounds, M&A, leadership changes, and more.
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.
Akta Company Search
Locate a company by name or website to get its uuid/website.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Akta Employee Reviews
Fetch a company's employee review signals and reviews.
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.
Akta Product Reviews
Fetch a company's product catalog and per-product reviews.
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.
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.
