Refresh vehicle photos when a page changes

An updated vehicle page can cue a fresh look at its Bid.Cars lot photos, keeping visual evidence in reach as the review evolves.

Trigger

Page Updated

Triggers when any block within a specified Notion page is updated.

Action

Get lot photos

Search and browse salvage and insurance vehicle auctions from Copart and IAAI marketplaces, view detailed listing information including photos, pricing history, and vehicle specifications by VIN or lot number. Find similar vehicles, access sales history, and explore available makes and models to discover your next auction opportunity.

Why this helps

Visual details can be separated from a changing review page, adding friction when returning to a vehicle decision.

  • Return images to the active review moment.
  • Make visual rechecks part of the update routine.
  • Spend less time switching back to find the listing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Bid.Cars to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Describe a plain-language automation that fetches lot photos for the vehicle whenever its page is updated.
  • 3Choose Page Updated for the vehicle page and select where Notis should report runs.
  • 4Make one real update to a page with a VIN or lot number and inspect the result.

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.

Search and browse salvage and insurance vehicle auctions from Copart and IAAI marketplaces, view detailed listing information including photos, pricing history, and vehicle specifications by VIN or lot number. Find similar vehicles, access sales history, and explore available makes and models to discover your next auction opportunity.

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

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.
