Trigger

Action

Retrieve Comment

Tool to retrieve a specific comment by its id. use when you have a comment id and need to fetch its details.

Why this helps

A discussion reference without its details can leave a collaborator guessing what was agreed.

  • Resolve a referenced comment quickly
  • Bring discussion context into a handoff
  • Reduce backtracking across pages

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Clay and Notion once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3Ask Notis to retrieve the existing comment identified in the incoming research handoff.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real comment id and confirm its details are returned.

Questions about this workflow

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.
