Triggers13

Things that can wake up your Notion coworker.

  • All Page Events

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

    NOTION_ALL_PAGE_EVENTS_TRIGGER
  • 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.

    NOTION_COMMENT_CREATED
  • New Comment

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

    NOTION_COMMENTS_ADDED_TRIGGER
  • 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.

    NOTION_DATABASE_CREATED
  • 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.

    NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED
  • 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.

    NOTION_DATASOURCE_SCHEMA_UPDATED
  • New Page

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

    NOTION_PAGE_ADDED_TO_DATABASE
  • Page Added to Page

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

    NOTION_PAGE_ADDED_TRIGGER
  • Page Content Updated

    Triggers when the body content of a Notion page is 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 page content edit in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion aggregates content edits within a short window (~60s typical).

    NOTION_PAGE_CONTENT_UPDATED
  • Page Created

    Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.

    NOTION_PAGE_CREATED
  • 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.

    NOTION_PAGE_PROPERTIES_UPDATED
  • Page Updated

    Triggers when any block within a specified Notion page is updated.

    NOTION_PAGE_UPDATED_TRIGGER
  • View Created

    Triggers when a new Notion view is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload includes `data.view_type` (`table`, `board`, `gallery`, `calendar`, `list`, `timeline`, `gantt`) and `data.parent` pointing at the view's tree parent (typically the teamspace), so customers can filter downstream.

    NOTION_VIEW_CREATED

Actions20

Things your coworker can do in Notion.

  • Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)

    Bulk-add content blocks to Notion. Text >2000 chars auto-splits. Parses markdown formatting. ⚠️ PARENT BLOCK TYPES: Content is added AS CHILDREN of parent_block_id. - To add content AFTER a heading, use PAGE ID as parent + heading ID in 'after' param. - Headings CANNOT have children unless is_toggleable=True. Simplified format: {'content': 'text', 'block_property': 'paragraph'} Full format for code: {'type': 'code', 'code': {'rich_text': [...], 'language': 'python'}} Array format also supported (auto-normalized): [{"parent_block_id": "..."}, {block1}, {block2}] => proper request structure

    NOTION_ADD_MULTIPLE_PAGE_CONTENT
  • 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).

    NOTION_CREATE_COMMENT
  • Create Notion Database

    Creates a new Notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema. IMPORTANT NOTES: - The parent page MUST be shared with your integration, otherwise you'll get a 404 error - If you encounter conflict errors (409), retry the request as Notion may experience temporary save conflicts - For relation properties, you MUST provide the database_id of the related database - Parent ID must be a valid UUID format (with or without hyphens), not a template variable Use this action exclusively for creating new databases.

    NOTION_CREATE_DATABASE
  • Create Notion page

    Creates a new page in a Notion workspace under a specified parent page or database. Supports creating pages with markdown content using the native markdown parameter, or as an empty page that can be populated later. PREREQUISITES: - Parent page/database must exist and be accessible in your Notion workspace - Use search_pages or list_databases first to obtain valid parent IDs LIMITATIONS: - Cannot create root-level pages (must have a parent) - May encounter conflicts if creating pages too quickly - Title-based parent search is less reliable than using UUIDs - The markdown parameter is mutually exclusive with children/content parameters

    NOTION_CREATE_NOTION_PAGE
  • 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. Note: This operation will fail if the block has an archived parent or ancestor in the hierarchy. You must unarchive the ancestor before archiving/deleting its descendants. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: Workspace-level pages (top-level pages that are direct children of the workspace, not contained within other pages or databases) cannot be archived via the Notion API. This is a documented Notion API restriction. Only pages that are children of other pages or databases can be deleted through this action.

    NOTION_DELETE_BLOCK
  • Fetch All Notion Block Contents

    Tool to fetch all child blocks for a given Notion block. Use when you need a complete listing of a block's children beyond a single page; supports optional recursive expansion of nested blocks.

    NOTION_FETCH_ALL_BLOCK_CONTENTS
  • Fetch Notion Block Children

    Retrieves a paginated list of direct, first-level child block objects along with contents for a given parent Notion block or page ID; use block IDs from the response for subsequent calls to access deeply nested content.

    NOTION_FETCH_BLOCK_CONTENTS
  • Fetch comments

    Fetches unresolved comments for a specified Notion block or page ID. The block/page must be shared with your Notion integration and the integration must have 'Read comments' capability enabled, otherwise a 404 error will be returned.

    NOTION_FETCH_COMMENTS
  • Fetch Database

    Fetches a Notion database's structural metadata (properties, title, etc.) via its `database_id`, not the data entries; `database_id` must reference an existing database.

    NOTION_FETCH_DATABASE
  • Fetch database row

    Retrieves a Notion database row's properties and metadata; use fetch_block_contents for page content blocks.

    NOTION_FETCH_ROW
  • Get About Me (Deprecated)

    DEPRECATED: Use GetAboutUser instead. Retrieves the User object for the bot associated with the current Notion integration token, typically to obtain the bot's user ID for other API operations.

    NOTION_GET_ABOUT_ME
  • Get about user

    Retrieves detailed information about a specific Notion user, such as their name, avatar, and email, based on their unique user ID.

    NOTION_GET_ABOUT_USER
  • Get page markdown

    Retrieve a Notion page's full content rendered as Notion-flavored Markdown in a single API call. Use when you need the readable content of a page without recursive block-children fetching.

    NOTION_GET_PAGE_MARKDOWN
  • Insert row database

    Creates a new page (row) in a specified Notion database. Prerequisites: - Database must be shared with your integration - Property names AND types must match schema exactly (case-sensitive) - Use NOTION_FETCH_DATA with fetch_type='databases' first to get exact property names and types - Each database has ONE 'title' property; other text fields are 'rich_text' - Database must NOT have multiple data sources (synced databases are not supported) Common Errors: - 404: Database not shared with integration - 400 "not a property": Wrong property name - 400 "expected to be X": Wrong property type - 400 "multiple_data_sources": Database uses multiple data sources (not supported) Note: Rich text content in child_blocks is automatically truncated to 2000 characters per Notion API limits.

    NOTION_INSERT_ROW_DATABASE
  • Insert Row From Natural Language

    Creates a new row (page) in a Notion database from a natural language description. Fetches the database schema at runtime, uses an LLM to generate the correctly-formatted property payload, and creates the page.

    NOTION_INSERT_ROW_FROM_NL
  • List users

    Retrieves a paginated list of users (excluding guests) from the Notion workspace; the number of users returned per page may be less than the requested `page_size`.

    NOTION_LIST_USERS
  • Move Page

    Tool to move a Notion page to a new parent (page or database). Use when you need to reorganize page hierarchy. Important: To move to a database, use data_source_id (NOT database_id). Get the data source ID from the database object using NOTION_FETCH_DATABASE.

    NOTION_MOVE_PAGE
  • Query database

    Queries a Notion database to retrieve pages (rows). In Notion, databases are collections where each row is a page and columns are properties. Returns paginated results with metadata. Important requirements: - The database must be shared with your integration - Property names in sorts must match existing database properties exactly (case-sensitive) - For timestamp sorting, use 'created_time' or 'last_edited_time' (case-insensitive) - The start_cursor must be a valid UUID from a previous response's next_cursor field - Database IDs must be valid 32-character UUIDs (with or without hyphens) Use this action to: - Retrieve all or filtered database entries - Sort results by database properties or page timestamps - Paginate through large result sets - Get database content for processing or display

    NOTION_QUERY_DATABASE
  • Query database with filter

    Tool to query a Notion database with server-side filtering, sorting, and pagination. Use when you need to retrieve a subset of rows by property, date, status, or other conditions.

    NOTION_QUERY_DATABASE_WITH_FILTER
  • Query data source

    Tool to query a Notion data source. Use when you need to retrieve pages or child data sources with filters, sorts, and pagination. Make paginated requests using cursors and optional property filters for efficient data retrieval.

    NOTION_QUERY_DATA_SOURCE
