Start a company search from a new Notion data source

Create a data source for a market study and let Notis ask Hunter to find companies matching your stated criteria.

Trigger

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.

Action

Search Companies

Search a B2B company database with structured filters like location, industry, and size.

Why this helps

Setting up a research database is only useful if the first batch of relevant companies gets gathered.

  • Give a newly created research source an immediate first research step.
  • Reduce setup friction when starting a market scan.
  • Keep search intent tied to the new workspace structure.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Hunter to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation or ask Notis to start a Hunter company search when a new data source is created.
  • 3Describe the intended market and company criteria in one plain-language instruction.
  • 4Select Data Source Created and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by creating a data source for a market you can validate.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this workflow?

A new Notion data source triggers it; adding a source to an existing database is distinct from creating the database container.

Where do search criteria come from?

Your single automation prompt describes the criteria Notis should use for the Hunter search.

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.
