Keep a Notion research page current with Apify data
Make research upkeep part of a predictable routine. Notis can review the Apify data available to it and refresh an existing Notion page with a concise update.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Research pages can become stale when nobody has time to revisit collected data and update the current picture.
- Keep an existing research page aligned with available findings.
- Make recurring updates easier to fit into a busy week.
- Give collaborators a clearer view of the latest reviewed data.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apify and Notion once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, or use Automations, New Automation in the portal.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review available Apify data and update the intended Notion page with a concise current summary.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with real data and verify the intended page was updated as expected.
Questions about this workflow
Can it show what changed since the last update?
Only if Notis can access the prior state or history. Provide that baseline or ask for a current summary based only on available data.
Which Notion page should I use?
Identify an existing page that the connected Notion integration can access, and name it clearly in your instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Apify to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Apify triggers
Notion actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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.
