6 Crazy Automation Workflows NOW Possible In Notion

[@blakestrat]

Date formulas will make my task manager so much simpler. No more complex workarounds! Thanks for demonstrating those use cases.

[@DailyShit.]

Them not including it actually made me quit Notion. We asked for a good way for recurring tasks FOR YEARS?!! !!! ! And then they introduce buttons that trigger automations and dont make the date variable, such a bonehead decision.

[@Gesche-my3pe]

Finally! I can create a "move all open task to tomorrow" button!!!

[@DanielCanosa]

that's a super cool use case!

[@karloskliemann]

I'd like to create a "postpone all undone tasks by one week", if anyone know how I can to it

[@Gesche-my3pe]

@@karloskliemann Hi, I would create a button, where 7 days are added to the DoDate of your tasks. So when Button is clicked, Edit [pages matching Status undone ] in Task database and then youre date property is edited with this formula: [Date triggered].dateAdd (7, "days") ... Hope this helps. I'm not used to write down my Notion workflows 🙃

Great video Daniel! Quick tip: I saw you have dividers in your properties to group the properties in categories. Now you can do it with LAYOUTS! You can add properties to property groups which will be stored in toggles. Such a great feature!😁

[@DanielCanosa]

I just set that up after recording this video haha thanks for the tip!

[@thegrowthhackingscientist]

Loved it thank you so much for the update !

[@DanielCanosa]

welcome!

[@molly-jones]

Great video covering these new features - I'll share with my Notion Consulting students!

[@DanielCanosa]

glad to be of help Molly

[@PaulaProduteka]

You are amazing

[@prepos9376]

thanks for the video you are a true inspiration daniel! the problem with the automation at 8:32 is that by advancing the tasks in this way, those of the next state are not generated.. do you have any work around?

[@goldenant9450]

he says at the end, an automation cannot trigger and automation - it sounds like that may be the issue you're having, but I may be misunderstanding.

[@Claire_Multipassion_Creative]

formula in any property🤯

[@Rufat.Muslumzada]

I really enjoyed watching your video and found it very insightful! I was curious, could you please share which program you use to record your screen and include yourself in the video? It looks very professional, and I’d love to learn more about your setup.Thank you in advance!

[@DanielCanosa]

I record everything separately and then join it in Premiere Pro. Canon EOS R: A-roll ScreenFlow: Screen recording Audio: Shure MV7 mic

@@DanielCanosa thank you so much

Pro qué decidiste hacer el canal en inglés? Tienes otro en español? No es que no te entienda, es solo curiosidad el video está genial, gracias ❤️

[@ProHaulersDFW]

Is there a way to automate the creation of subtasks under a parent page? Like if I have a template repeating the creation of a page, can I some how automate the creation of sub tasks under that?

[@DanielCanosa]

yes you can!

[@ProHaulersDFW]

Hmmm how is that possible?

[@ProHaulersDFW]

@@DanielCanosa very curious about how this is possible

[@DanielCanosa]

@@ProHaulersDFW use notion automations. The trigger is whenever a page's been added, and in the actions you create all the subtasks and link each subtask (relation) to the page that triggered the automation

[@NadirahKadir]

Hi there! Is there any way i can assign my task to my colleagues in round robin basis?

[@DanielCanosa]

yes, but you'd need to use 3rd party automation tools such as Make.com and a specific setup

[@thegoodieslab]

Hi there! I've tried to do the automation on a Notion Form that when the response status is modified in "Done" to send an automatic mail from my Gmail address to the customer address put it in the form, however I must do something wrong because the email is not sent. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

[@thehumanrebuildd]

It used to work but now for some reason when I am editing the defined variable and I save it. It says edit a deleted property and the formula does not function. Why is it doing that? It works if you're adding a page but not if you want to edit that property

[@naivety]

I want to create a way to count the number of entries that entries that match the input I put in a specific column. For example, if the month created is October, I want to count the total number of October created entries in a database. Any idea how to do that as a formula?

[@DanielCanosa]

wouldn't that be a rollup?

[@2get-tr2nl]

Is there a way to have an automation triggered (send a Slack message to task owner) by a task not being done by "Due Date" ?

[@nicitydodah]

Yes

[@fortheloveofleftovers]

I use notion for my bills. Each bill has a due date. I'm trying to set up a formula to where it shifts the due date 30 days (or to that same day the next month) when it's checked off as paid. Is there a way to do this? I only see a way to do it from when it is checked. So if my bill is due on the 15th but I don't get into notion to check it until the 20th, it shifts it to the 20th instead of the 15th when it's due.

[@DanielCanosa]

Should be possible. I would use chatgpt to get the exact formula

[@BOXmediaTV]

Great video 🎥👍 Q how many team members do you have in Notion ? Q do I need a paid version of Notion to make all the Automation work?

[@DanielCanosa]

I have 8 members and yes, you need the paid version

[@christianmagill3829]

Can you rollup the client email?

[@JimShingler]

Can we set the date start and date end?

[@DanielCanosa]

I haven't found the way!

[@karloskliemann]

Just realized this. [Trigger Date].dateAdd(1, "Weeks").dateRange([Trigger Date].dateAdd(2, "Weeks"))

[@Hollera8]

I've only recently realised that there was a limit per database of 5 automation scenarios or something. Hopefully, that's not the case any more. Can anyone confirm?

[@DanielCanosa]

I don't see any limit! I have a DB with 10+ automations running

[@Hollera8]

@DanielCanosa has that always been the case? Cz im certain I've realised in the past that I couldn't go past 5 🤔 you're also on a teams plan...
