Find the right Notion destination for Bigpicture research
Reduce filing friction by locating the right workspace destination automatically.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Fetch Notion Data
Fetches notion items (pages and/or databases) from the notion workspace, use this to get minimal data about the items in the workspace with a query or list all items in the workspace with minimal data
Why this helps
Research piles up when nobody is sure which page or database should receive it.
- Finds relevant destinations
- Reduces filing decisions
- Supports consistent organization
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bigpicture io and Notion once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Research destination index.
- 3Tell Notis to search accessible Notion pages and databases for destinations matching the latest Bigpicture io company research, then report the best matches with reasons.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one research topic and review the suggested destinations.

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.
