Add Notion as a Subscriber to your Avenue Monitors

Updated over a year ago

Why connect Avenue to Notion?

You may want to connect to Notion in order to consolidate your workflow management and take advantage of the powerful collaboration features that Notion offers. With this integration, users can create tasks directly from within Avenue, assign those tasks to team members within Notion, and track progress on those tasks seamlessly. This helps streamline workflows across teams and increase productivity by keeping everyone on the same page.


Setting up your Notion Integration

Here are the steps to get your integration setup:

1. Head to Settings in the left-side Navigation bar

2. Click to add a new integration

3. Select Notion and press "Continue"

4. You will be redirected to Notion's authentication flow. Follow the steps to Select which pages you want to share with Avenue, then click "Allow Access".

Follow the authentication step and click Select Pages

You're all set! You can always go back into the integration setting and add or remove access to different pages in Notion.


Using Notion as a Signal Subscriber

You can configure your Notion Subscriber to either:

  • create a new page for each Signal

  • create a new database entry for each Signal

Option 1: Creating Notion Pages

To create a Notion page from your Avenue Signal requires you to set the following parameters:

  • Set the parent_type property to "Page"

  • Under properties, set the title sub-field

You can use template values in your Notion fields. These will fill with data from your Signal when your Signal is created.

Note. If you run your monitor query, you will see a "Columns" option when selecting your Notion field values. The dropdown will provide options from your Signal data columns for you to use as values.


Option 2: Creating a new Database Entry

Adding entries to your notion databases is similar to adding a page but with a few slight changes:

  • Set the parent_type to Database

  • You must set the properties field, and it must match the exact schema of your notion database. Here too, you can use template variables as well as text inputs.

Expert Tip. Don't forget to check that your Notion Subscriber works by sending a test Signal! Use the "Send Test Signal" button on the right and make sure you get the green success popup before saving your Workflow.
