Refresh existing Notion page details with API context
Keep key Notion page details current when a request brings in useful external information.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Page details can drift out of date when external information changes and updates depend on manual follow-through.
- Bring relevant external information into existing page details.
- Reduce repetitive page maintenance.
- Keep important context near the work it describes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apiverve and Notion once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Notis and name it for page refresh.
- 3Tell Notis which page to update, what data to retrieve through Apiverve, and which existing page properties should change based on the result.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real page and verify the intended properties were updated.
Questions about this workflow
Can it update database rows too?
This action updates page properties. For a database row, use the row update action and provide the row and property context.
What should I include in the webhook request?
Include enough context to identify the Notion page and the external information to retrieve. Avoid relying on details that are not available to the automation.

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.
