Trigger
New Card Trigger
Triggered when a card is created in the specified board
Action
GraphQL Content API Query
Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.
Why this helps
New cards often begin with missing context, causing founders and collaborators to search multiple systems before work can start.
- Reduce context switching
- Surface approved references early
- Give assignees a faster starting point
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Trello and Contentful graphql once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation and describe that new cards should trigger a Contentful search for matching briefs.
- 3Pick the Trello New Card Trigger for the relevant board.
- 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real card.
Questions about this workflow
What does Contentful return?
Notis runs the query you describe and reports the matching entries and fields available in your Contentful space.
Can it infer the card topic?
Yes. Tell Notis to use the card name and description as search context, while recognizing that Contentful results depend on your query and indexed fields.
