Prepare for Priority Leads Without a Separate Research Sprint

When a lead moves into a stage that deserves attention, Notis can use the property update as the cue to search for current company news, leadership context, and public signals.

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

Search

Tool to perform unified search across 40+ search engines including Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, YouTube, Amazon, and more. Use when you need to retrieve search results with rich structured data including organic results, ads, knowledge graphs, local listings, images, videos, and related searches. Supports advanced filtering by location, language, date, device type, and SafeSearch settings.

Why this helps

High-value conversations arrive faster than the research needed to prepare for them, so useful context is gathered late or not at all.

  • Begin account research at the right workflow moment
  • Bring current public context into meeting preparation
  • Avoid repeated manual searches for every priority lead

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Search API to Notis once.
  • 2Ask Notis to research company news and public context when a lead reaches your priority state.
  • 3Select the Notion Page Properties Updated trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test by updating one sample lead to the relevant state.

Questions about this workflow

Can the search focus on a particular company?

Yes. The instruction can tell Notis to use the company and person context carried by the Notion event when forming the search.

What sources can be requested?

You can ask for recent news, company pages, interviews, product announcements, or other public results available through Search API.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Notion triggers

Search api actions

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Get Account Info

Tool to retrieve account usage statistics including monthly usage, remaining credits, hourly limits, and subscription period information. Use when you need to check current account status or usage limits.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

Get Cached Search by ID

Tool to retrieve cached search results by search ID in JSON format. Use when you need to access previously executed search results without re-running the query. The search ID is found in the search_metadata.id or search_metadata.json_url field from initial search responses. Cached results are available for 90 days.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Get Cached Search HTML by ID

Tool to retrieve cached search results by search ID in HTML format. Use when you need to access the raw HTML snapshot of a previous search execution. The search ID is available in the search_metadata.id or search_metadata.html_url field from initial search responses.

ActionInstant

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

Get Locations

Tool to get available locations for geo-localized search queries. Use when you need to find location identifiers for targeting Google searches to specific geographic areas. Returns location metadata including identifiers, names, coordinates, and population reach.

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

Search

Tool to perform unified search across 40+ search engines including Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, YouTube, Amazon, and more. Use when you need to retrieve search results with rich structured data including organic results, ads, knowledge graphs, local listings, images, videos, and related searches. Supports advanced filtering by location, language, date, device type, and SafeSearch settings.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

TriggerPolling

Page Added to Page

Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.
