Orient a new research view with G2 categories

Create a new view for exploring software and let Notis surface G2 categories relevant to its research context.

Trigger

View Created

Triggers when a new Notion view is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload includes `data.view_type` (`table`, `board`, `gallery`, `calendar`, `list`, `timeline`, `gantt`) and `data.parent` pointing at the view's tree parent (typically the teamspace), so customers can filter downstream.

Action

List categories

Search G2.com to discover software products, compare pricing and categories, and read customer reviews all in one place. Get detailed product overviews and ratings to make informed decisions about business software.

Why this helps

A new view can make information easier to browse without making clear which product categories belong in the exploration.

  • Add category context at the moment a new research view is created.
  • Make software exploration easier to frame.
  • Avoid a separate category-discovery task.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and G2 to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or tell Notis what you want in plain language.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to list G2 categories relevant to the parent research context when a new view is created.
  • 4Select the Notion View Created trigger and choose a channel for reports.
  • 5Test by creating one real research view and reviewing the category list.

Questions about this workflow

Does the trigger identify the view type?

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.

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.
