Bulk Import Tasks Via Webhook
You use an external tool for intake (Google Forms, Typeform, custom app) and need tasks in Notion. Instead of manual copy-paste, send the data to Notis via webhook and it automatically creates Notion rows with full context.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Insert row database
Creates a new page (row) in a specified notion database.
Why this helps
Data lives in external intake forms or apps, but Notion is your source of truth. Transferring data manually wastes time, introduces errors, and feels repetitive.
- Eliminate manual data entry from external tools
- Keep your Notion database current without switching apps
- Integrate custom tools and forms with Notion automatically
- Enable workflows where Notion is the central hub
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion to Notis in the portal.
- 2Ask Notis: 'Give me a webhook URL. I want to send bulk task data from an external tool, and Notis should create rows in my Notion database.'
- 3Configure your external tool (Google Forms, Zapier, custom backend) to send data to the Notis webhook URL. Notis provides documentation on the expected JSON format.
- 4Tell Notis in plain language what each piece of data means, for example: use the task name as the page title and the priority value as the priority.
- 5Test by sending a sample webhook request and verifying the task appears in Notion.
Questions about this workflow
What tools can send data to the Notis webhook?
Any tool that supports webhooks: Google Forms, Typeform, Zapier, Make, or your own backend API.
Can I transform the data before it hits Notion?
Yes, tell Notis how to transform fields. For example: 'Convert priority levels from 1-5 to High/Medium/Low' or 'Extract domain from email address.'
What if a task with the same ID already exists in Notion?
You can tell Notis to update the existing row or create a duplicate, depending on your needs.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion actions
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
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.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
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.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
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.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
Tag Added to Task
Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.
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).
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
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.
