Notion integrations & automations 🤖.

- Docs in code → Notion: https://exnota.com
- Delete duplicates: https://tools.exnota.com/duplicates
- Spotify sync: https://music.exnota.com
Been hammering away at a Git to Notion integration:

1) Write docs as code
(as part of your normal dev workflow).

2) Push changes.

3) Docs are synced to Notion.

4) Now any team can read, search, ask AI!

Can't think of a single use for this in Notion...

But you can add a child page to a link block in the sidebar.

And it doesn't appear anywhere else 🤯

Creating an audit log in Notion databases.

Just created an ~8min walkthrough. The basic idea is:

- Create a second database as your log.
- Use an automation to save changes to it.
- Use a custom layout to display those in the database page.

Syncing developer-written docs to Notion?

A quick POC.

3. Database automation.

Same as the button, but do it as a temporary database automation triggered on creating a page.

Create temp pages until all are done. Then delete temp pages and automation.

Pro: Can workaround the 1000 limit.

Cons: Requires setup and cleanup.

2. Button automation.

Create a button that updates the relevant database, then... press it :P

Pro: Repeatable.

Cons: Won't work if more than 1000 pages match.

1. Scrolling.

Literally just scroll and use the built-in bulk functionality.

Pro: No setup.

Cons: Max ~1000 at a time. Tedious. Can't use formulas. Slow computer issues?

Notion webhook + Github Issue 💚

Love little things that reduce friction.

1. Choose code task to work on.
2. Press 'Create issue'
3. Wait a few seconds
4. Click link to new Github Issue.

No need to: Open github, select repo, select new issue, type title, two way link to task in Notion.

Fun with Notion webhooks 🕸️🪝

- Task count in page icon.
- AI generated cover images.
- Auto-screenshot websites.
- And a few more!

This could get addictive ;)
