Notion automation with Bizomate

Your team keeps its plans in Notion, but the work that feeds them arrives somewhere else — a form, an inbox, a store. Bizomate adds and updates database items with your database's own properties, writes pages and comments, and starts a workflow when an item is added or changed. Every run leaves a record of what it wrote.

On every plan, Free included.

What can start a workflow

New database item
When an item is added to a Notion database

Choose a database shared with the integration. Items already in it when you publish never start a run. Checked every 5 minutes on paid plans, every 15 on Free.

Updated database item
When an item in a Notion database changes — a new item counts as a change

Each item edited between checks starts one run, and a new item counts as a change. Checked every 5 minutes on paid plans, every 15 on Free.

What a workflow can do with it

Create a database item
Adds an item to a Notion database, a value for each property you fill in

The database's properties appear as rows to fill in, each typed as Notion has it. Page content takes simple Markdown: headings, bullets, to-dos and code.

Update a database item
Changes the properties you fill in on a database item, or archives it

Only the properties you fill in change. Archive moves the item to Notion's trash, where it can be restored.

Find database items
The items of a database that match, in the order you choose

Where rows of a property and the value it must equal, all of them or any, sorted as you choose; up to 1,000.

Create a page
Adds a page inside another page, with a title and content
Append to a page
Adds paragraphs, headings, to-dos, bullets or code to the end of a page
Get a page
A page's properties and its content as plain text

Its properties, and its content as plain text. A database item is a page too.

Add a comment
Comments on a page or database item

The integration needs Insert comments, under its Capabilities in Notion.

Questions about Notion

Why does Bizomate not see my database?

Notion shows an integration only the pages and databases shared with it. Open the database in Notion, choose Connections in its menu and add your integration; it then appears in the step's Database list. Sharing a page shares the pages inside it too.

Do the triggers start a run straight away?

No. They check the database every 5 minutes on paid plans and every 15 on Free, and each new or changed item starts one run. Items already there when you publish never start a run, and a check that finds nothing starts no run and costs nothing.

Can a workflow write a whole page?

Yes. Create a page adds a page inside another page with a title and content, and Append to a page adds paragraphs, headings, to-dos, bullets or code to the end of one. Both take simple Markdown, and Get a page reads a page's content back as plain text.

Which plan do I need?

Notion is on every plan, Free included. On Free its triggers check every 15 minutes; paid plans can check every 5.
