Keep research screening aligned with schema changes

When your research database structure evolves, use the schema change as a cue to revisit and run a clearly defined Finviz screening routine.

Trigger

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.

Action

Run screener

Monitor insider trading activity, screen stocks based on custom criteria, and analyze market sentiment from financial news to make informed investment decisions. Access real-time data on market movers, tabular financial information, and comprehensive market intelligence all in one place.

Why this helps

Changes to a research database can leave supporting routines out of step unless someone remembers to review them.

  • Notice when a research structure change affects screening routines.
  • Reduce the chance that process maintenance is forgotten.
  • Use the new database context to guide an appropriate screen.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Finviz to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to review the research schema change and run a screen only when its purpose is clear.
  • 3Select Notion Data Source Schema Updated for the research source and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with a real schema change and review whether the resulting screen fits the updated process.

Questions about this workflow

Will every schema update cause a screen?

The prompt should ask Notis to interpret the change and screen only when the updated research workflow clearly calls for it.

What information is included in the schema event?

The event includes updated property details, allowing the automation to consider what changed.

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.

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.
