Research prospects from a Notion brief
Capture the company, audience, or role you want to reach in Notion, then let Apify search LinkedIn while you move on to higher priority work.
Trigger
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Action
Search LinkedIn Profiles
Search LinkedIn profiles by keyword with job title, company, school, location, industry, seniority, and headcount filters.
Why this helps
Manual profile searches interrupt focused work and make it easy to lose track of who you meant to research.
- Starts profile research as soon as a database item is created.
- Reduces repeated searches across LinkedIn.
- Returns results for a quick human review before outreach.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Apify to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Ask Notis for your portal link, open Automations, and create a new automation.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction to search LinkedIn using the new prospect brief and report a concise shortlist.
- 4Choose the Notion New Page trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test it by adding one real prospect brief to the database.
Questions about this workflow
Can I restrict the search to a role or location?
Describe the role, company, or location you care about in the Notion brief or automation instruction. Notis interprets the request for the Apify search.
Will it contact the people it finds?
No. This workflow searches profiles and reports results for you to review.

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.

Search LinkedIn Profiles

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.
List YouTube Comments
Extract complete comment threads from YouTube videos: text, authors, dates, votes, and replies.
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.
