Scheduled Alerts

Scheduled Alerts let you check a Notion database on a schedule and notify Discord when something changes. Use them when you want fewer pings than real-time notifications, or when changes don’t trigger Notion webhooks.

When to use Scheduled Alerts

• Reduce noise vs real-time notifications by scheduling alerts (e.g., daily instead of constant pings).
• Monitor newly created items (e.g., new support tickets or new leads).
• Catch changes that happen outside normal webhook events (e.g., formula recalculations).
• Send reminders on a schedule without building complex automation.

Step-by-step

1. Open Scheduled Alerts in the sidebar.
2. Click New alert.
3. Pick a Notion database and Discord channel.
4. Choose a frequency (daily for Solo, hourly for Team).
5. Choose when to alert: Created, Updated, or both.
6. If Updated is enabled, pick a property to watch.
7. (Optional) Set To value (leave it empty for any value).
8. Save the alert.
9. Use Post preview to Discord to send a preview message (available once every 10 seconds). Preview does not change the alert baseline.

Changing the run time

If you update a daily alert’s run time to a later hour that hasn’t happened yet, it will run again that same day at the new time. If you change it to an earlier or already-passed hour, it waits until the next day.

Examples

New support ticket created

1. In Notion, make sure your database has a Type property (Select) with an option like Support.
2. In NotiCord, create a scheduled alert:
   • Alert when: Created
   • And when following property changes: Type
   • To value: Support
   • Frequency: Daily or hourly (Team)
3. (Optional) Include Assignee in Alert Content to mention owners when it happens.

Priority escalated to High

1. In Notion, make sure your database has a Priority property (Select).
2. In NotiCord, create a scheduled alert:
   • Alert when: Updated
   • And when following property changes: Priority
   • To value: High
   • Frequency: Daily or hourly (Team)
3. (Optional) Include Assignee in Alert Content to mention owners when it happens.
