This would be amazing if it worked more than once. I was able to get one Notion item sent to slack, but after that it just stopped working :( Great idea though!
It absolutely works more than once. If you send a message to slack manually, it fires the webhook. Send another manual message, and slack thinks it’s a continuation. But each message to slack from native Notion automation is a new message and fires a new webhook very time.
Nice video! I would like to do something similar but not sure how I should do! I have a database with multiple column and I would like that when I set a field to a value it get to update data in mailchimp or/and other services. So if I monitor my database, it runs every 15 minutes and take away an operation count... But when using webhook like you do, I cannot get the data information from the updated field! It would be nice to be able to collect the notion information and pass it throught the webhook... So if I use the search function like you do, I dont know how to find the row that have been edited! Any ideas on this one? Thanks!
The webhook replaces polling. In your script, you check for changes relative to a known date, or a number of records sorted by date. Make your script fault tolerant. Essentially, your script fetches the data it needs, rather than pushing the data to your script. The Notion -> slack -> webhook is just the wake-up call. WhT you o is up to you.
Incredible!! Thank you so much for this, it really helped me not waste Make operations on polling the database
Absolutely love this Ashley thanks! Works a treat.
Great Video! Very good explained. Love it. One question. Where do I find the webhook in Slack I do have configured?
In Slack, the very bottom of the left menu is "apps." Search for webhooks and select Outgoing Webhooks.
Nice it works, thanks! It will work great with a astro-notion-blog :)
