Notis

Move company questions toward an answer

A comment asking what changed at a company can prompt Notis to find relevant Akta coverage for your response.

Trigger

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.

Action

Akta News

Fetch enriched news articles for a company, open-ended topic, or industry — funding rounds, M&A, leadership changes, and more.

Why this helps

Questions buried in page comments can be hard to revisit once the conversation moves on.

  • Give company questions a concrete research next step.
  • Reduce the chance that a useful comment is forgotten.
  • Find relevant company news without manually switching tools.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Akta to Notis once through the portal, including Notion comment access.
  • 2Create an automation with one instruction asking Notis to use company-related comments to fetch relevant Akta news.
  • 3Select Notion's Comment Created trigger and scope it to the relevant page if desired.
  • 4Choose a run-report channel and test with one real comment.

Questions about this workflow

Does this require additional Notion access?

Yes. The Notion integration needs the Read comments capability. If it was authorized before that capability was enabled, re-authorize the connection.

What kind of comments are useful?

Comments that clearly ask about a company's funding, leadership, acquisitions, or recent developments are a good fit for an Akta news search.

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.

TriggerInstant

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.
