Slack to Notion Action Log
When you mention Notis in Slack or send it a message, that message is instantly captured and added to your Notion action log. Important decisions and ideas from Slack conversations become permanent and searchable.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Important decisions and action items get buried in Slack conversations. You reference them days later but can't find the original thread. Team members disagree about what was decided because Slack is ephemeral. You spend time scrolling through channel history trying to remember what was said.
- Create a permanent record of important Slack decisions and action items
- Stop scrolling through Slack history to find decisions you made
- Build a searchable Notion log of all important conversations from Slack
- Reference past decisions and action items with confidence and speed
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Notion account to Notis and configure Slack integration.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When a message is sent to me in Slack or my name is mentioned, capture it and add it to my Notion Action Log as a content block with the sender name, message text, channel, and timestamp.'
- 3Select 'Incoming Webhook' as the trigger (Slack integration).
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by mentioning Notis in a Slack channel or sending it a message directly, then confirming it appears in your Notion action log.
Questions about this workflow
Will this capture all Slack messages I send or just ones mentioning Notis?
By default, it only captures messages that mention or message Notis directly. This prevents log clutter. You can modify your prompt to capture broader conversations if preferred.
Can I exclude certain types of messages or Slack channels?
Yes. Your prompt can specify 'exclude bot messages and automated updates' or 'only capture messages from my team channel, not general announcements.'
Does this include links and attachments from Slack?
Yes. Notis extracts links, file references, and context from messages. You can request specific formatting in your prompt, e.g., 'include a link to the Slack message in the Notion entry.'

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Notion actions
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
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.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
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.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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.
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.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
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).
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
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.
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``.
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.
