Weekly metrics deck from Notion records
Save the weekly scramble to collect numbers, while keeping data gaps explicit. Notis uses a designated Notion metrics data source populated with dated values and definitions for the reporting period to prepare a dated presentation with metric trends, context and missing-data callouts.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Slides from Markdown
Creates a new google slides presentation from markdown text. automatically splits content into slides using '---' separators and applies appropriate templates based on content structure.
Why this helps
Notion has the source material, but preparing a dated presentation with metric trends, context and missing-data callouts in Google Slides requires a separate manual pass.
- Save the weekly scramble to collect numbers, while keeping data gaps explicit.
- Keep source context attached to the presentation and flag missing information instead of filling gaps with guesses.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Google Slides to Notis once in the portal; give Notis access to the relevant Notion pages.
- 2Ask Notis to create this automation, or open Automations → New Automation in the portal and name it “Weekly metrics deck from Notion records”.
- 3Use this plain-language prompt: “Using a designated Notion metrics data source populated with dated values and definitions for the reporting period, create a dated presentation with metric trends, context and missing-data callouts in Google Slides. Use only information available in those Notion pages, identify missing inputs, and avoid duplicate output for the same source version.”
- 4Select a weekly schedule as the trigger, choose where Notis reports runs, and create the automation.
- 5Test with one real, appropriately scoped Notion example and review the resulting Google Slides presentation.
Questions about this workflow
What information does this need?
Notis needs access to a designated Notion metrics data source populated with dated values and definitions for the reporting period. If the required details are absent, the run should report the gap instead of making them up.
Does this publish or send the deck?
No. This workflow creates or updates a Google Slides presentation for review; it does not distribute it.

All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Create Google Slides Presentation
Tool to create a blank or duplicate presentation. use when you need to initialize a presentation with a specific title or duplicate an existing one.
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.
Get Presentation
Tool to retrieve the latest version of a presentation. use after obtaining the presentation id.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get Presentation Page
Tool to get the latest version of a specific page in a presentation. use when you need to inspect slide, layout, master, or notes page details.
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.
Get Page Thumbnail
Tool to generate and return a thumbnail image url for a specific page. use when you need a quick preview of a slide page after loading it.
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.
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.
