Find Existing Notion Content Before Adding Slides
Before you spend time creating a new presentation, this webhook searches Notion for related content, resources, and past work you've already done.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Search Notion page
Searches notion pages and databases by title; an empty query lists all accessible items, useful for discovering ids or as a fallback when a specific query yields no results.
Why this helps
Neurodivergent founders often re-create content they've already built because they forgot it exists elsewhere. This automation prevents duplication and saves creative effort.
- Discover existing Notion content before building slides
- Avoid recreating work you've already done
- Reuse resources and frameworks across presentations
- Build on top of existing documentation
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Slides and Notion integrations to Notis
- 2Create automation: 'When I trigger a webhook with a topic, search Notion for all content related to that topic'
- 3Specify which Notion workspace or pages to search
- 4Select 'Webhook' as the trigger type and get your unique webhook URL
- 5From your own tooling or Notis chat, send the webhook with a topic to search, e.g., 'marketing strategy'. Notis returns matching Notion pages.
Questions about this workflow
How do I trigger this webhook?
You can send an HTTP request from any tool or ask Notis in a chat like 'search Notion for marketing strategy'. Notis provides a webhook URL for programmatic access.
What does the search return?
Notis searches Notion page titles, content, and properties, returning a ranked list of matching pages you can reference or build on.
Can I narrow the search to specific databases?
Yes. In your automation setup, specify which databases or pages to prioritize, e.g., 'search only the research or template databases'.
Is this case-sensitive?
No. Notis uses intelligent matching, so 'Marketing' and 'marketing' return the same results.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Slides to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Slides triggers
Notion actions
New Slide Added
Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.
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.
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.
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.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
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).
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.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
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.
