Create a daily arrival preparation queue in Notion
Make upcoming stays easier to prepare for with a daily queue based on information available to Notis.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Insert row database
Creates a new page (row) in a specified notion database.
Why this helps
Teams can lose preparation time identifying which arrivals need attention and re-entering the same details by hand.
- Create a regular preparation queue in an existing database.
- Reduce manual transfer of available stay details.
- Make missing information apparent before staff act.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apaleo and Notion once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to identify upcoming arrivals from information it can access and add preparation rows to the existing Notion database, avoiding duplicates where possible.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and review the rows for accuracy.
Questions about this workflow
How does it avoid duplicate rows?
The prompt should specify a reliable way to identify an existing arrival row, if the database has one. If there is no reliable identifier, review the output for duplicates.
Which arrival details can it include?
Only details available to Notis from Apaleo or the existing Notion database. The workflow should leave unavailable details blank or call them out rather than infer them.

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.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
