Create a resume shortlist brief in Notion
Review candidate evidence against the role criteria in a single concise Notion brief.
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
Comparing several resumes against the same role criteria makes it hard to keep evaluation consistent.
- Keep comparisons anchored to criteria supplied by the hiring team.
- Show what information is missing rather than assuming it.
- Reduce repeated reading when preparing a shortlist discussion.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Notion once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to compare incoming parsed resume details only against role criteria included in the request, then create a Notion brief with evidence and unanswered questions.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real parsed resume and supplied criteria, then check the brief for unsupported claims.
Questions about this workflow
Where do the role criteria come from?
Include the criteria in the webhook request. Notis should not assume requirements that were not provided.
Does this make a hiring decision?
No. It organizes evidence for a human reviewer and should not be used as an automatic hiring decision.

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