Look up a vehicle diagnostic code from Notion

Record the code beside the vehicle in Notion and let Notis retrieve its Kelley Blue Book lookup when the record changes.

Trigger

Page Properties Updated

Triggers when properties of a Notion page are updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.

Action

Look up OBD-II code

Search vehicle ratings, OBD-II diagnostic codes, and current lease deals across years, makes, and models from Kelley Blue Book. Get comprehensive car information and pricing data to compare vehicles and find the best deals.

Why this helps

A code copied into a vehicle note can sit unexplained while you search for a reliable reference later.

  • Bring a diagnostic reference into the same moment the code is recorded.
  • Reduce repeated searching when reviewing vehicle issues.
  • Keep the code and its lookup context connected in your workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Kelley Blue Book to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language prompt to look up the OBD-II code when a vehicle record is updated with a diagnostic code.
  • 3Select Page Properties Updated for the vehicle data source and choose a run-report channel.
  • 4Test with one real code recorded in a Notion vehicle entry and review the lookup.

Questions about this workflow

Will every property edit cause a lookup?

The selected trigger can fire for property changes in the chosen data source. State in the prompt that Notis should proceed only when the update includes an OBD-II code.

Does a code lookup diagnose the vehicle?

It retrieves code information for reference. Use it to inform follow-up research, not as a substitute for a qualified vehicle inspection.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Kelley Blue Book. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

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.

TriggerInstant

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.
