Start broad when you have not picked a make
If your Notion plan describes needs but no brand, browse available Edmunds makes as a light first discovery step.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List makes
Search new and used car inventory on Edmunds by make, model, year, condition, and location. Retrieve detailed specs, pricing, history, and dealer info by VIN, and browse all available car makes.
Why this helps
Choosing a make can feel like a prerequisite to research, leaving an open-ended purchase plan stuck at the starting line.
- Explore the available makes before narrowing to a model.
- Move a broad plan toward a more focused next step.
- Avoid getting stuck because one decision is still open.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Edmunds to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a single prompt to review the active broad vehicle plan in Notion and browse available Edmunds makes.
- 3Select a recurring schedule trigger suited to your research cadence.
- 4Choose a channel for run reports and test using one broad car plan.
Questions about this workflow
What does the makes action return?
It browses available car makes. It does not provide inventory listings for each make.
Can the workflow choose a make for me?
Ask Notis to summarize the makes in light of your stated needs, then make the choice yourself.

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.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
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.
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.
