Form Submissions to Tasks

When someone fills out a form on your website or in an app, configure it to send data to Notis via webhook. Every submission instantly becomes a task in your Notion database with all the form data preserved.

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

Form submissions arrive in your email and disappear. You forward them to Notion manually or they get lost entirely. Customer inquiries pile up without a system to triage them. You can't see a unified view of all incoming requests or track what's been addressed.

  • Automatically capture all form submissions in one Notion database
  • Eliminate manual copying and pasting of form data
  • See all incoming requests at a glance and track progress on each
  • Reduce response time by triaging submissions as they arrive

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Notion account to Notis and set up webhook capability.
  • 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'Accept form submissions via webhook and create a Notion task for each. Extract the form data (name, email, message, form type) and add them as properties to the task.'
  • 3Select 'Incoming Webhook' as the trigger.
  • 4Notis will provide a webhook URL. Configure your form tool (Typeform, Google Forms, Zapier, custom forms, etc.) to POST submissions to that URL.
  • 5Test by submitting the form and confirming the entry appears in your Notion database.

Questions about this workflow

What if I'm using a tool that doesn't have a webhook option?

Most tools have some integration capability (email forwarding, integration apps, automation tools like Zapier). Notis can accept the data in many formats. Ask Notis for help routing your specific tool's submissions.

Can I route different forms to different Notion databases?

Yes. Your automation prompt can include routing logic, e.g., 'if the form is a Contact Request, create the task in my Inbound Contacts database; if it's a Feature Request, create it in my Feature Ideas database.'

How do I respond to submitters?

You can manually respond after the task is created. Or, you can set up a follow-up automation to send automated confirmation emails to submitters, confirming you received their submission.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion actions

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

File Deleted or Trashed

Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

File Shared (Permissions Added)

Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.

TriggerPolling

Archive Notion Page

Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.

ActionInstant

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

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).

ActionInstant

Google Drive Changes

Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

New File Matching Query

Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.

TriggerPolling

Create Notion page

Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Google Drive and Notion. Any combination from 985+ integrations.
