Track feature usage in Notion

Watch the features that signal expansion — exports, API calls, integrations — and route the moments that hint a customer is ready for more.

the event

You emit feature.used with this shape. The TypeScript SDK keeps the call type-safe, and the event is stored whole — so every field below is available to the pipeline by name.

  • user_idstring
  • featurestringfeature key
  • countnumberuses in window
  • planstring

emit it

From your code with the TypeScript SDK — or any language over the REST endpoint and signed webhook ingress.

emit feature.used
import { ingest } from "@ingestlayer/sdk";

await ingest("feature.used", {
  user_id: ctx.user.id,
  feature: "csv.export",
  count:   1,
  plan:    ctx.user.plan,
});

route it to Notion

Append events as rows to a Notion database, or content to a page. Connect once with OAuth, pick the target per pipeline.

  1. 01

    connect your workspace

    Authorize the ingestlayer Notion integration over OAuth from the destinations page, then choose which databases and pages it may touch. We hold only that workspace's access token, in-region, in the same KMS as your other credentials.

  2. 02

    pick a target

    Per pipeline, choose a database to append a typed row to, or a page to append content to. The picker lists exactly what you shared with the integration during authorization — nothing else.

  3. 03

    map the columns

    For a database, match event fields to Notion properties — automatically by column name, or per-column with $event.* templates. The title column falls back to the event name, so a row is never blank. For a page, the rendered body is appended as blocks.

notes

questions

Won't this be far too noisy?
Filter to the handful of features that actually predict expansion; everything else streams to the warehouse without an alert.
Can I spot free users hitting paid features?
The plan field rides along — branch on it to flag free-plan users leaning on paid surfaces, a clean upsell trigger.
How do I roll this up per account?
enrich.entity attaches the account id so usage aggregates cleanly in Postgres by company, not just by user.
