I have a “Bugs” database that we store all our bugs. I want to create a slack message when a bug’s priority is set to “Very high”. 

Is this possible to have a trigger based on the item’s status or any other conditions on the database’s properties?

Hey friends! 👋

Just wanted to hop in here with a belated update to confirm that there is now a Updated Database Item trigger for Notion. 🎉

Please note that the trigger only works on Updated Database Items. It will not trigger on New Database Items, you will need to use the “New Database Item“ trigger for those.


If you've not tested out that new trigger for the Notion app yet please do give it a try and reach out in the Community if you run into any issues. In the meantime, happy Zapping! ⚡

Hi @yonia!

It’s not currently possible to trigger a Zap from an updated item in Notion, sorry about that. We do have a feature request open for that addition and I've added you as another vote for that. I don't have an ETA of when or if this will happen, but we will definitely email you if we add it in the future. :)

We’ll also update this Community post when we have some news. 

Thanks!
