Why this helps
Welcoming a new customer can be forgotten when account setup competes with other founder work.
- Make the first customer touchpoint easier to remember.
- Use a consistent checklist as a starting point for onboarding.
- See welcome work alongside other commitments.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Zendesk and Notion to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Name a new automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one plain-language prompt asking Notis to add a welcome checklist item to Notion when a new Zendesk user is created.
- 4Select the Zendesk New User Created trigger and pick a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real user event and make sure the checklist is actionable.
Questions about this workflow
Can the checklist contain my usual welcome steps?
Ask Notis to include the checklist steps you want in the prompt, or direct it to the Notion checklist format you already use.
Does this contact the customer?
No. It creates a Notion checklist item for internal follow-through.

Zendesk triggers
Notion actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)
Efficiently adds multiple standard content blocks to a notion page in a single api call with automatic markdown parsing. the 'content' field in notionrichtext blocks now automatically detects and parses markdown formatting including headers (# ## ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), inline code (`code`), links ([text](url)), and more. ideal for bulk content creation, ai agents, and replacing multiple individual add page content calls. supports automatic text formatting, content splitting, and up to 100 blocks per request.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add content to Notion page
Deprecated: appends a single content block to a notion page or a parent block (must be page, toggle, to-do, bulleted/numbered list, callout, or quote); invoke repeatedly to add multiple blocks.
New User Created
Triggered when a new user is created in Zendesk.
Append complex blocks (advanced, full control)
Appends complex blocks with full notion block structure to a parent block or page. use for advanced scenarios requiring precise control: code blocks, tables, embeds, nested children within blocks, or when working with pre-built notion block objects. requires full notion api block schema - use add multiple page content for simpler content creation.
New Zendesk Ticket
Triggers when a new ticket is created in a specified Zendesk view.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
Create comment
Adds a comment to a notion page (via `parent page id`) or to an existing discussion thread (via `discussion id`); cannot create new discussion threads on specific blocks (inline comments).
Create Notion Database
Creates a new notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema; use this action exclusively for creating new databases.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Delete a block
Archives a notion block, page, or database using its id, which sets its 'archived' property to true (like moving to "trash" in the ui) and allows it to be restored later.
