Why this helps
Looking up nutrition for each meal can interrupt focused work and make a simple food log hard to maintain.
- Gets nutrition details from a plain-language meal entry.
- Keeps meal tracking in the workspace you already use.
- Reduces time spent searching individual ingredients.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Api ninjas to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set one up conversationally.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction to enrich each new meal entry with nutrition information.
- 4Select the Notion New Page trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real meal description in Notion.
Questions about this workflow
What should a meal entry include?
Write a clear description of the food, such as a recipe, menu item, or meal you ate. Api ninjas extracts nutrition information from text.
Does this calculate nutrition for every possible dish?
Results depend on the detail in the description and the information available to the nutrition service.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Api ninjas. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Api ninjas actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Generate Barcode Image
Tool to generate a barcode image for specified text. use when you need a barcode image (png or svg) of custom data.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
BIN Lookup
Tool to look up bank information from a bank identification number. use after you have a bin to fetch issuer details (brand, type, country).
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Get Bitcoin Price and Market Data
Tool to retrieve the latest bitcoin price and 24-hour market data. use when you need real-time bitcoin metrics in usd.
Comment Created
Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.
Commodity Price
Tool to get real-time price for a commodity. use when you need the current market price by specifying the commodity name. example: "what is the current price of gold?"
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Crypto Price
Tool to get real-time price for a cryptocurrency pair. use when you need the current market price by symbol.
Database Created
Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.
Check Disposable Email
Tool to check whether an email address is from a disposable email provider. use when validating user emails prior to sending communications.
Data Source Created
Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.
DNS Lookup
Tool to retrieve dns records for a specified domain. use when you need dns record details for troubleshooting or validation.
Data Source Schema Updated
Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.
Earnings Calendar
Tool to fetch past and upcoming earnings results for a specified ticker. use when you need both historical earnings and upcoming earnings dates for a company.
