Make a periodic content database cleanup manageable

Spot records worth checking without turning database cleanup into a long manual scan.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Query database

Queries a notion database for pages (rows), where rows are pages and columns are properties; ensure sort property names correspond to existing database properties.

Why this helps

Old content records accumulate and become harder to trust when nobody has time to review them regularly.

  • Identify records that merit a human status check.
  • Use existing dates and available social context to focus the review.
  • Keep database maintenance small and repeatable.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ayrshare and Notion once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe which records count as stale using properties your database already has.
  • 3Choose a recurring schedule as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real query and check that each flagged record has a clear reason.

Questions about this workflow

Will this edit or archive old records?

No. It queries the database and reports records for review. A separate workflow can update or archive records when appropriate.

What if my database has no date property?

Provide another reliable way to identify stale records or add the relevant context. Notis cannot infer record age when it is unavailable.

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.

TriggerInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Archive Notion Page

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

ActionInstant

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).

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Create Notion page

Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.

ActionInstant

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.

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Ayrshare and Notion, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
