Keep Notion references accurate when files disappear
Make a missing file visible in the records that depend on it, so broken references do not surprise you later.
Trigger
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Action
Update Page
Tool to update the properties, icon, cover, or archive status of a page. use when you need to modify existing page attributes.
Why this helps
A trashed source file may leave active Notion pages pointing to material that is no longer available.
- Surface file removal in the workspace where the file was referenced.
- Prompt replacement or cleanup while context is fresh.
- Reduce time lost following links to unavailable material.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and Notion once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Describe how to flag or update a Notion reference when its Drive file is trashed.
- 4Choose the Google Super File Deleted or Trashed trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real file that has a known Notion reference.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Super to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Super triggers
Notion actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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.
Aggregate Metric Changed
Triggers when an aggregate metric (SUM/COUNT/AVG/MIN/MAX) changes in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This trigger monitors an aggregate calculation on a target column (optionally filtered by a search column/value) and fires when the calculated result changes.
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.
Attendee Response Changed
Polling trigger that fires when any attendee's RSVP changes to accepted, declined, or tentative. Returns attendee info and current status.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
Cell Range Values Changed
Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.
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).
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
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.
Conditional Format Rule Changed
Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Data Validation Rule Changed
Triggers when data validation rules change (added/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
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.
