        "content": "## Create a task from a new Bounce Watch company signal\n\nBounce Watch tells you what just happened at a company and when \u2014 funding, senior hires, new offices, customer wins and partnerships, each carrying its own date. What the API covers: bouncewatch.com/products/data-enrichment-api\n\nAn alert you read and forget is worth less than a task somebody owns. This workflow turns each new signal at a watched company into a row in a task database.\n\n### How it works\n\nThe Bounce Watch trigger checks your watchlist and hands over each new signal once. A filter drops anything marked unconfirmed, so rumours and inferences never become work. A Settings node writes the task title and the body \u2014 what happened, the date, the company and a link to its profile \u2014 and the Notion node creates the page in your task database.\n\n### Setup\n\n1. Get an API key at bouncewatch.com/register/api. It is free, no card, and every new account starts with 2,500 credits. Paste it into the Bounce Watch credential.\n2. Put a few companies on your watchlist first. Use the Bounce Watch node's Watch \u2192 Add operation, or add them from your Bounce Watch account. An empty watchlist means an empty trigger.\n3. Connect your Notion credential, choose the task database, and map the property names on the last node to the ones your database actually uses.\n\nChecking the watchlist costs no credits. An empty run means nothing matched your watches, not that those companies were quiet.\n\n### Customization tips\n\nSwap Notion for Airtable, a spreadsheet or any tracker with an n8n node \u2014 only the last node changes. Raise the importance threshold on the trigger if you only want a task for the big moments, or point the trigger at a single company.",
