Turn a posted URL into structured article data
When your own systems find a link worth keeping, they should not need a human to process it. Post a URL to Notis from any app or script and it returns the article as clean structured JSON, so the extraction slots straight into whatever you build next.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Extract News
Tool to extract a news article from a website to a well-structured JSON object. Use when you need to extract structured data from a news article URL, including title, text, images, videos, publish date, authors, language, and sentiment.
Why this helps
Automated pipelines collect URLs faster than anyone can open and summarize them, leaving raw links piling up with no structure.
- Lets any system request an extraction on demand.
- Returns structured fields ready for downstream storage.
- Removes the human bottleneck on link processing.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and World News API to Notis once from the portal.
- 2Open Automations, click New Automation, and name it 'Webhook URL extract'.
- 3Describe the outcome, for example: 'When a request with a news URL comes in, extract the article into structured fields and return them.'
- 4Choose the incoming webhook as the trigger and copy the URL Notis provides.
- 5Set the reporting channel, then send one test request to confirm the JSON.
Questions about this workflow
How do I send the URL?
Include it in the webhook request body and reference it in your instruction so Notis extracts the right article.
What fields come back?
Title, full text, images, videos, publish date, authors, language, and sentiment from the World News API.
Can I route the result into Notion too?
Yes. Add that step to your instruction and Notis can write the extracted article into a Notion page.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to World news api. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Extract News
Tool to extract a news article from a website to a well-structured JSON object. Use when you need to extract structured data from a news article URL, including title, text, images, videos, publish date, authors, language, and sentiment.
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.
Extract News Links
Tool to extract news article links from a website or webpage. Use when you need to discover all news article URLs on a page, with optional filtering by URL prefix and subdomain inclusion.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Get Geo Coordinates
Tool to retrieve latitude and longitude of a location name. Use when you need geographic coordinates to fill the location-filter parameter in news search operations.
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.
News Website to RSS Feed
Tool to convert any news website page into an RSS feed. Provide a URL to a news website page and get back an RSS feed with the latest news from that page. Use when you need to create an RSS feed from a news website that doesn't provide one natively.
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.
Search News Sources
Tool to search whether a news source is being monitored by the World News API. Use when you need to check if a specific news source is available in the system.
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.
Get Top News
Tool to get the top news from a country in a specific language for a given date. The top news are clustered from multiple sources in the specified country. Use when you need to retrieve current or historical top news headlines and articles.
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Page Added to Page
Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.
