Make Notion database changes easier to understand

Give a changing database a clear visual guide so the new structure is easier to learn and remember.

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

MiniMax Image (image-01 / image-01-live)

Text-to-image and image-to-image with MiniMax (image-01 / image-01-live).

Why this helps

Schema changes can leave collaborators unsure what a field is for or how a database now fits together.

  • Make structural changes easier to communicate.
  • Create a visual reference for a new schema.
  • Reduce repeated explanations after a database update.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and MiniMax to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation from the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one instruction asking Notis to create a clear visual guide to the data source schema change with MiniMax Image.
  • 4Choose Data Source Schema Updated and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real schema change and review whether the image communicates the update.

Questions about this workflow

Does this trigger on every row update?

No. Data Source Schema Updated is for structural column changes in a data source.

Can I ask the image to label the new properties?

You can request labels in the instruction, subject to the image model's ability to render text clearly.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

MiniMax actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

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.

MiniMax Music

Text-to-music: turn a style prompt and lyrics into a full song (MiniMax Music 3.0 / 2.6).

ActionInstant

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.
