Search Notion and Automatically Add Results
Send a webhook query to search Notion, then Notis automatically adds matching results as new pages or database entries. Automate content organization and curation.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Search Notion page
Searches notion pages and databases by title; an empty query lists all accessible items, useful for discovering ids or as a fallback when a specific query yields no results.
Why this helps
You search Notion manually to find related content, then manually add results to a new page or collection. This repetitive work breaks when you forget to search or add things.
- Automate repetitive search and add patterns, reducing manual work and forgetfulness
- Keep curated collections current with matching Notion pages automatically
- Flexible searching enables complex content organization without manual sorting
- Reduces friction from scattered information across Notion
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When a webhook receives a search query, find matching Notion pages and add them to [target collection/database]'.
- 3Select 'Notis Webhook' as the trigger and note the webhook URL.
- 4Configure the external system to send search queries (as JSON) to the webhook, and choose a notification channel.
- 5Test by sending a sample webhook with a search query and verify matching Notion pages appear in your target collection.
Questions about this workflow
What search criteria can I specify in the webhook?
Title keywords, date ranges, tags, or custom filters. Describe your search needs in the automation prompt and Notis will interpret the webhook data.
Can I avoid adding duplicate results?
Yes. Ask Notis to check for duplicates before adding: e.g., 'only add pages that aren't already in the target collection'.
How many results can be added from one search?
Notion and Notis support bulk operations, but very large result sets might take time to process. Specify a reasonable limit in your automation prompt.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Airtable to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Airtable triggers
Notion actions
Base Metadata Changed
Triggers when an existing Airtable base changes its name or permission level.
Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)
Efficiently adds multiple standard content blocks to a notion page in a single api call with automatic markdown parsing. the 'content' field in notionrichtext blocks now automatically detects and parses markdown formatting including headers (# ## ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), inline code (`code`), links ([text](url)), and more. ideal for bulk content creation, ai agents, and replacing multiple individual add page content calls. supports automatic text formatting, content splitting, and up to 100 blocks per request.
Base Schema Changed
Triggers when tables, fields, or views change in an Airtable base.
Add content to Notion page
Deprecated: appends a single content block to a notion page or a parent block (must be page, toggle, to-do, bulleted/numbered list, callout, or quote); invoke repeatedly to add multiple blocks.
User Profile Changed
Triggers when the connected Airtable user's profile information changes.
Append complex blocks (advanced, full control)
Appends complex blocks with full notion block structure to a parent block or page. use for advanced scenarios requiring precise control: code blocks, tables, embeds, nested children within blocks, or when working with pre-built notion block objects. requires full notion api block schema - use add multiple page content for simpler content creation.
View Created
Triggers when a new view is created in an Airtable base.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
View Deleted
Triggers when a previously known Airtable view is deleted.
Create comment
Adds a comment to a notion page (via `parent page id`) or to an existing discussion thread (via `discussion id`); cannot create new discussion threads on specific blocks (inline comments).
View Metadata Changed
Triggers when an Airtable view changes its name or type.
Create Notion Database
Creates a new notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema; use this action exclusively for creating new databases.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Delete a block
Archives a notion block, page, or database using its id, which sets its 'archived' property to true (like moving to "trash" in the ui) and allows it to be restored later.
