One Calendar, Everything Visible
Events happen across multiple systems: registration confirmations, conference dates, webinar invitations. If they only live in email or scattered apps, you won't see them all in one place. This workflow accepts event data via webhook (from your app, a form, or a service you use) and automatically creates a calendar entry in Notion, so you have a unified view of everything you need to attend or prepare for.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Why this helps
Multiple calendars and event systems create invisible commitments. A webinar is in Gmail, a conference date is in Slack, and a customer call is in Zoom. You forget about events because they're not visible in your main calendar, leading to missed meetings and damaged relationships.
- All external events automatically appear in your Notion calendar
- Never miss an event because it was hidden in a different system
- Unified view of all your commitments and activities in one place
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your external system (app, service, or custom backend) to send event data to Notis via webhook.
- 2In the Notis portal, ask: 'Create a webhook automation: when an external service sends me an event notification, create a new page in my Notion calendar database with the event name, date, time, location, and any attendees.'
- 3Notis will give you a webhook URL to share with your external system.
- 4Test by sending a sample event to the webhook URL and verify it creates the calendar page in Notion.
- 5Once confirmed, integrate the Notis webhook URL into your app or service so events flow automatically.
Questions about this workflow
Can any external system send events to this webhook?
Yes. If it can make HTTP requests, it can send events to Notis. This includes Zapier, Make, custom apps, or any service with webhooks.
What event data should I send in the webhook?
Notis can extract: event name, date, start and end time, location, attendees, and any custom fields your system tracks. Tell Notis what to expect and how to map it to your Notion database properties.
Can I duplicate events across multiple Notion databases or calendars?
Yes. You can set up the webhook to create calendar pages, task reminders, and team notifications all from one incoming event. Notis can distribute the data however you need.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Gmail to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Gmail triggers
Notion actions
Email Sent
Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.
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.
New Gmail Message Received Trigger
Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.
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.
