Make space to review your Are.na ideas
Set aside a regular moment to reconnect with your collected references. Notis can summarize the Are.na material you provide in a weekly Notion digest.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Useful ideas can disappear into saved channels when there is no simple routine for reviewing them.
- Create a regular review point for accumulated references.
- Surface themes across the research supplied to the run.
- Keep an approachable digest in Notion for later planning.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Are.na and Notion once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a Notis automation and name it for your weekly review.
- 3Describe the outcome: summarize the Are.na channels or items I provide for this run, highlight recurring themes, and create a dated Notion digest.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real set of Are.na research.
Questions about this workflow
Can the schedule automatically know which items are new?
Only if the automation receives that information. Are.na has no trigger events available here, so specify or provide the material to review.
Can I use the digest to plan future work?
Yes. Ask it to call out promising directions or questions to explore, based on the provided material.

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.
