Maintain Notion Documentation of Spreadsheet Settings

When someone changes your spreadsheet's title, timezone, or locale, Notis automatically updates your Notion documentation so your team always has accurate reference information about the spreadsheet's configuration.

Trigger

Spreadsheet Properties Changed

Polling trigger that detects when a Google Spreadsheet's top-level properties change. Monitors properties such as title, locale, timeZone, and autoRecalc settings.

Action

Update Page

Tool to update the properties, icon, cover, or archive status of a page. use when you need to modify existing page attributes.

Why this helps

Spreadsheet settings (title, timezone, language) affect how data is interpreted and displayed. When these change, team members working from Notion documentation may not realize it, leading to data misinterpretation or confusion.

  • Team always aware of spreadsheet configuration changes
  • Notion documentation automatically reflects current settings
  • Reduces confusion about data interpretation
  • Less manual documentation work

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and Notion to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When my spreadsheet's properties change (title, timezone, locale, auto-recalc), update my Notion settings page.'
  • 3Select the Google Sheets spreadsheet-properties trigger.
  • 4Choose your Notion page for settings documentation.
  • 5Test by changing the spreadsheet's title or timezone and confirm Notion updates within 2 minutes.

Questions about this workflow

Which properties are monitored?

Title, locale, timeZone, and auto-recalculation settings.

Why would these properties even change after initial setup?

Teams sometimes expand to new regions, change language requirements, or adjust auto-recalc for performance reasons.

How often are property changes detected?

Every 1-2 minutes during Notis polling.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Aggregate Metric Changed

Triggers when an aggregate metric (SUM/COUNT/AVG/MIN/MAX) changes in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This trigger monitors an aggregate calculation on a target column (optionally filtered by a search column/value) and fires when the calculated result changes.

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

Cell Range Values Changed

Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.

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

Conditional Format Rule Changed

Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.

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

Data Validation Rule Changed

Triggers when data validation rules change (added/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.

TriggerPolling

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

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

Filtered Range Values Changed

Polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets filtered ranges for value changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect when values matching a data filter change. Emits the matched values when changes are detected.

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 Rows in Google Sheet

ActionInstant

New Sheet Added in Google Spreadsheet

Polling trigger that detects when a new sheet is added to a Google Spreadsheet.

TriggerPolling

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.
