Time Notion Transcripts Against Their Audio

A transcript is easier to turn into captions or audio references when the words are aligned to the recording. Use a page content update to start that alignment work.

Trigger

Page Content Updated

Triggers when the body content of a Notion page is updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any page content edit in the workspace the integration has access to. Notion aggregates content edits within a short window (~60s typical).

Action

Forced Alignment

Align a known transcript to its audio recording, returning precise word-level timestamps (subtitles, audiobook timings, karaoke).

Why this helps

Word-level timing takes care to create and can delay captions or audiobook preparation.

  • Get precise word-level timestamps from a known transcript and recording.
  • Keep subtitle preparation connected to the transcript page.
  • Reduce manual timing work before publishing or review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and ElevenLabs to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to align the updated transcript to its linked audio with ElevenLabs Forced Alignment.
  • 3Select the Notion Page Content Updated trigger and scope it to the transcript page or data source.
  • 4Choose a run-report channel and test with one transcript and its matching recording.

Questions about this workflow

What inputs does Forced Alignment need?

It aligns a known transcript to its audio recording to return precise word-level timestamps.

Will every page content change run it?

Scope the trigger to the relevant transcript page or data source, and describe in the prompt when the transcript is ready.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to ElevenLabs. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

ElevenLabs actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Voice Isolator

Remove background noise, music and ambient sounds from a recording, returning clean studio-quality speech (MP3, base64).

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Voice Changer

Transform a recording into a different ElevenLabs voice while preserving the original emotion, timing and delivery (MP3, base64 output).

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Forced Alignment

Align a known transcript to its audio recording, returning precise word-level timestamps (subtitles, audiobook timings, karaoke).

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

List Voices

List the ElevenLabs voices available to this account (voice_id, name, category, labels, preview_url).

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Speech to Text

Transcribe an audio or video file from a URL with ElevenLabs Scribe — 90+ languages, word timestamps, speaker diarization, audio-event tagging, optional entity detection and keyterm biasing.

ActionInstant

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.

Music Generation

Generate studio-grade music (MP3) in any style from a natural language prompt with Eleven Music — vocals or instrumental, commercial-use cleared.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

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.
