How do I trigger when a new Notion page is created?
Short answer: Drop the "Notion → New Page" trigger on your workflow canvas, add filters if you want them, and publish. It fires within seconds of the event in Notion, not on a polling schedule.

for the curiousYou don’t need to read this. Tiny Command auto-maps every field into the visual picker so downstream nodes can pull values by clicking. We show it here for power users who want to know what’s on the wire.

FAQ
Questions about New Page.
How does the New Page trigger work in Notion?
Fires when a new page is created in a Notion database (functionally the same event as Database Item Added; pick whichever name feels natural).
Is the New Page trigger real-time?
Yes. New Page uses webhooks or push subscriptions, not polling. Your workflow fires within seconds of the event happening in Notion.
What data does New Page return?
The full event payload from Notion. The output shape table on this page lists every field, its type, and an example value so you can map fields into downstream nodes.
Can I filter New Page so only some events start a workflow?
Yes. Add a Filter node right after the trigger and match on any field, whether that's subject, sender, status, or anything else in the payload. Workflows only continue when the filter passes.
Do I need Notion admin permissions to use New Page?
For most Notion accounts a standard user can authorize the trigger. Some Notion plans require an admin to enable third-party webhooks. Check Notion's docs if the trigger fails to register.
