New Notion tasks automatically appear in your Slack channel

Stop re-entering tasks into Slack. When a new Notion task is created, it posts to your team channel instantly so everyone sees it without you having to share it manually.

Trigger

Page Created

Triggers when a new Notion page is created. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: new row in this data source - parent_page_id: new sub-page under this page (immediate parent only) With neither set, fires for any new page in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion sends ~60s aggregation latency on most events.

Post message to channel

Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.

Why this helps

Neurodivergent founders often create tasks in Notion but forget to tell the team, leading to duplicate work, missed deadlines, and frustrating follow-up messages.

  • Tasks appear in Slack the moment they're created, eliminating notification delays
  • Your team sees priorities without needing to ask or check Notion separately
  • Reduces context-switching for you and reduces frustration for your team
  • Single source of truth stays in Notion while team visibility happens in Slack

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Notion workspace and Slack account to Notis (one-time setup).
  • 2In the Notis portal or by asking Notis in Slack, create a new automation with the prompt: 'When a new page is created in my task database, post its title and description to the team-updates channel.'
  • 3Select 'Page Created' as your trigger and pick a Slack channel for run reports.
  • 4Test by creating a new page in your Notion task database and confirm it appears in Slack.
  • 5Adjust which Notion database is scoped or which Slack channel receives posts as needed.

Questions about this workflow

Will this post every single page I create in Notion?

Only if you leave the automation unscoped. You can configure it to only post from a specific Notion database (e.g., just your Tasks database, not your Personal Notes database) by tweaking the automation prompt.

What information shows up in the Slack message?

Notis extracts the page title and any summary content you've set, then posts it in a readable format. You can refine what shows up by adjusting your automation prompt.

Can I post to multiple Slack channels at once?

You can create separate automations, each pointing to a different channel. For example, one automation posts to #team-updates and another posts to #engineering.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Slack actions

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Set snooze duration

Deprecated: turns on do not disturb mode for the current user, or changes its duration. use `set dnd duration` instead.

ActionInstant

Comment Created

Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.

TriggerInstant

Add a custom emoji to a Slack team

Deprecated: adds a custom emoji to a slack workspace given a unique name and an image url. use `add emoji` instead.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Add an emoji alias

Adds an alias for an existing custom emoji in a slack enterprise grid organization.

ActionInstant

Database Created

Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.

TriggerInstant

Add a remote file

Adds a reference to an external file (e.g., google drive, dropbox) to slack for discovery and sharing, requiring a unique `external id` and an `external url` accessible by slack.

ActionInstant

Data Source Created

Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.

TriggerInstant

Add a star to an item

Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.

ActionInstant

Data Source Schema Updated

Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.

TriggerInstant

Add call participants

Registers new participants added to a slack call.

ActionInstant

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

TriggerPolling

Add emoji

Adds a custom emoji to a slack workspace given a unique name and an image url; subject to workspace emoji limits.

ActionInstant

Page Added to Page

Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.

TriggerPolling

Add reaction to message

Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.
