Notion's New Automations Feature is a Game-Changer

[@delasantos]

If anyone wants the formula ... if(empty(prop("Completed")) or empty(prop("Due")), "", format(dateBetween(prop("Completed"), prop("Due"), "days")) + if(dateBetween(prop("Completed"), prop("Due"), "days") == 1, "day", " days"))

[@ChibiKeruchan]

Something that I wanted them to add is putting a backlink to a page that was created by triggering a new page from another database. if you create a page on database [A] which resulted to creating a new page in Database [B] using automation. you should be able to choose if you wanted to add a backlink to it. this way tracing the flow is easier as you knew 2 pages are connected with each other via a backlink.

You can do it, that's what he does with "Content" and "This page" setting.

[@vanessajacques7293]

I applied the default tasks principle to automate phases of a project that I needed to show on a timeline and it worked wonders! In my timeline database, I used a rollup to pull pull the due date from the project page and the dateSubstract formula to configure the execution time and due date of each phase in relation to the due date of the project. Thank you for sharing your precious knowledge!

[@YanTougas]

I really like the tip at 18:25 about sorting the automated task by "date created". The button feature also listed tasks in reverse and I never thought about this sorting idea. Thank you!

[@ChibiKeruchan]

one of the best thing I figured out in automation that I'm so exited about is the Checkboxes. You can make checkboxes Act like a button. Trigger [ When Check box is edited ] Action [ Add page to another database Choose a template ] [ edit Checkbox to [] Unchecked ] with this you technically make a button out of checkbox. you can use this as buy button to add a new page to "Sales" database.

[@debsmurphy]

Great video thanks for sharing! Quick question...is there any way to pull property data from the database you're setting up the automation for to the new one that you're adding the date to? For reference, I am automating my sales into a sales tracker, but then want to link that sale, via relation property to my Master Client List, but I'm not seeing a way to do this. If I create an automation to add page to Master Client List, It's not giving me the option to pull the client name/data from the sales tracker, which is not very efficient.

Great video! I wish there was a way to make a template for default tasks instead of automations, it's easier to see what you are building with a template,.

[@ThomasFrankExplains]

I agree. Unfortunately, without Automations there's no way for the creation of one page to trigger the creation of other new pages. So if you were to add pages in the linked database within a template, they'd always be the same pages in each instance of that template.

[@Big.Niklas]

PAUSING A TASK Hey @Thomas, Thanks for the high qality and informative Video! I really like the setup in general, at the same time one from my perspective key element is missing: The option to pause the tracking and continue at a later stage.- At least I did not see this option yet. How would you approach this? I already tried the simple way with creating further autmations that "end" the tracking when the task is put "on hold". But once I put it back to "in progress" the tracker starts counting from 0 again. Do you get what I mean? How would you approach this issue? Thanks in advance

[@jdp2926]

Is it possible to create a custom page title? So not a static value for the title but a value of your automation? I want to create a new page in another database when a new multi-select is added. Ideally, the new page title would be the same value as my added multi-select value.

[@ThomasFrankExplains]

Not just yet - Automations can't really pass context from the trigger to the action step yet. Hopefully they'll add that in the future, as there are countless uses for it.

Great video. I have a question, though: Let's say I have a brain dump page and an official to-do list page. On both there is one database. The brain dump page has a database shown as a list, where I can create some to-dos, while brainstorming. (so I don't need to leave the page to create to-dos within the official to-do list page.) How can I create a “transfer automation” which does the following: I create a to-do within the brain dump to-do list. Ones that are created, it will be automatically depicted in the official to-do list. Until now, I was only able to create the following: ones I created a brain dump to-do, a new page was created in my official to-do list page, but the notes i wrote within the brain dump to-do are not transferred.

[@ItsMitch92]

Hi Thomas, thanks for the video, I implemented some stuff from here but I have run into some errors in Notion that you might want to adress. Among other things I use notion as a journal, sleep tracker and habit tracker. I have set up a daily repeating Journal entry (untill yesterday this was the case for the sleep and habits DBs too) I then set up an automation that whenever a page is added to the journal it should create a page in the sleep and tracking DBs and link them, it does not seeem to work. T.L.D.R.: Repeating DB entries do not trigger the "Page Added" trigger and that is a bummer because I want these things to work in the background

[@ThomasFrankExplains]

Ah yep, right now the recurring templates feature doesn't trigger Automations. They only trigger when a user makes a change. In this case though, creating the journal page doesn't seem like a huge lift since you'll need to write in it anyway! You could perhaps bridge the gap with a simple Pipedream automation, though I still need to test if edits by bot users will trigger these automations.

[@ItsMitch92]

@@ThomasFrankExplains I tested with zapier and it does trigger the automation, another thing that does NOT trigger the automation is another automation.

Hola Thomas, Thank you so much for always explaining things in a clear and understandable way, I have learned so much about Notion just from watching your videos, muchas gracias :) I have a question on one of the things you showed in your video, when you have a template for your "project" DB that has a linked view of the "Tasks" DB, how did you filter it and sorted it so that it would only show the tasks related to that project page? Thanks again and I hope you get to see my message .

[@mauricioaugustin6301]

First, you need to go on the Tasks DB and create a 'Relation' between 'Tasks' and the 'Project' DB. Once you created it, you can now edit/create your template "New project" where inside of it you put the linked view of the Tasks DB. Then on this 'Tasks' view, build an advanced filter where "Project" 'contains' the template title (which it is 'New project' in this example). With this setup, every time you create a new project and modify its title, the tasks associated with that project will automatically be filtered accordingly. And you can finally sort it as you wish! Hope I helped

[@ChrisOnoo]

Hey, great video Do the paid templates include these new database features? When Notion introduces new features, do you plan to update paid templates?

[@ThomasFrankExplains]

We do when we can, though usually not immediately. Updating a template is a huge undertaking - it involves making and testing updates, often re-doing documentation, and creating super-detailed upgrade guides for customers because migrating from an old template copy to a new one is extremely difficult and time consuming. So we always have to take a measured approach and decide if the new feature is worth trying to build in, or if we should just make tutorial content so people can add the feature in if they want. For this feature in particular, I mention near the end of this video that we won't be adding it into our templates directly for the time being. The reason is that Automations can only be created or edited if you're on a paid Notion plan, so it makes the issue of template migration even more severe. For any of our customers who is on the Free Notion plan, they won't be able to upgrade to any Automations we add. So instead, we're adding template-related Automation tutorials in our community. It's the best path we can think of right now - otherwise we risk essentially requiring people to be on a paid Notion plan to use our templates.

[@ChrisOnoo]

I've done this in a one-way fashion for our talent team at Nebula, but right now it requires using the API. I ended up building a JavaScript automation in Pipedream to do it.

[@ThomasFrankExplains]

Since these Automations require a paid account to build and edit, we aren't going to be adding any of them to our templates for the time being. The main reason for this is that while people on the free Notion plan can use Automations in templates, they can't edit them or make new ones. This means we'd have to ship all-new versions of the templates every time we added an automation, and free Notion users wouldn't be able to update their own copies of the templates. They'd have to migrate to a new copy every time we updated the automations, and migration is extremely difficult and time-consuming due to the way Notion is set up. Sadly, this is a Notion feature that just doesn't play well with large, frequently-updated templates. So what we're doing instead is building a playlist of tutorials in our community that will teach users how to build Automations into the templates: community.thomasjfrank.com/c/notion-database-automations/ Since you have UB, you should have access to that link! And if you're on Notion's free plan, check out our Notion automation hub as well: thomasjfrank.com/notion-automations/ - right now we're focused on creating lots of free automations using Pipedream, and we're getting close to shipping versions that require nearly zero manual setup. You'll be able to just copy the automations I've built into your own free Pipedream account without any manual setup.

You can choose a page template with this new Automations feature, but not via the API unfortunately. It's the only ability Automations has that the API doesn't, as far as I'm aware! Myself and other ambassadors have definitely requested that feature be added to the API, so hopefully we'll get it soon.

Tried merge tags as well but that hasn't worked neither. Is there a way to do this?

[@coachellyn]

I was a little disappointed by this update, to be honest. Perhaps the best use case I have for this is that I have it create a task for me to check my client's check-ins when they create a new page in their check-in database.

As an automation nerd, I definitely feel the limitations right now - but I’m anticipating they’ll add a lot more features over time.
