Keep One Important Search Result Visible During Review
A critical search result can disappear beneath daily work while a decision is still open. For a short review period, Notis can retrieve that known cached JSON on a schedule and report it to the chosen channel.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
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.
Why this helps
A decision depends on one prior search, but the reference is repeatedly lost in history and team members rerun or reinterpret the query.
- Keep one fixed result visible during a bounded review
- Use the same cached response for consistent discussion
- Avoid unnecessary reruns while the cache remains valid
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Search API and Notion to Notis once.
- 2Tell Notis which known Search API ID to retrieve and how long the review reminder should remain active.
- 3Select a recurring Notis schedule and a channel for the cached JSON report.
- 4Test the schedule once with a valid cache ID.
Questions about this workflow
Does the cached result change between runs?
No. This action retrieves the previous result for the supplied search ID rather than performing a fresh search.
When should I stop the schedule?
Stop it when the review ends or before the 90-day cache availability window expires.

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
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
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.
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.
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.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
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.
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.
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.
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.
