Monthly Reviews Without Setup: Scheduled Notion Pages
The last day of each month, Notis creates a Notion review page with templates for documenting wins, learnings, and next month's priorities.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Why this helps
Monthly reviews get skipped when neurodivergent founders forget to create pages or set aside time. Without systematic reviews, progress isn't recognized, learnings don't stick, and priorities drift.
- Never skip monthly reviews because Notis creates the page automatically
- Build a searchable archive of your team's progress and learnings over time
- Create space for systematic reflection without adding to your to-do list
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion to Notis in the portal.
- 2Tell Notis: 'On the last day of each month, create a Notion page titled Monthly Review [Month Year] with sections for wins, challenges, learnings, and priorities for next month.'
- 3Select 'notis_cron' as your trigger kind and specify the schedule (e.g., 'monthly on the last day at 9am').
- 4Point Notis to your Notion reviews or archive folder.
- 5Test by manually triggering a test run to verify the review page is created with the right template.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis pull data from previous months to show progress?
Yes. Your automation can ask Notis to 'link to last month's review' or 'include a summary of tasks completed this month' so you have continuity.
Can I customize the template or sections in the review page?
Absolutely. Tell Notis exactly what sections and prompts you want in the review page, and it will create that template each month.
What if I want to schedule reviews quarterly or weekly instead?
Tell Notis your preferred schedule: 'every quarter,' 'every Friday,' 'twice a month,' etc. It will create pages on your exact cadence.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Slack triggers
Notion actions
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
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.
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
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.
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
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.
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
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).
Reaction Added Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.
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.
Reaction Removed Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
New Bot Message Received Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_CHANNEL_MESSAGE_RECEIVED` with `is_bot_message=true` instead. Triggered when a new bot message is posted to a Slack channel.
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.
