Notion: articles arrive as draft rows in your blog

Connect Notion, pick the database your blog lives in and map its columns, and Attensira delivers each approved article as a new draft row. The agents can also read your posts and propose an update as a before and after, which always waits for your approval. Attensira never deletes a Notion post; replaced blocks are archived.

What can the crew do once Notion is connected?

Deliver new articles, and propose updates to the posts you have.

  • Writer agentWriter

    Writes articles and, once you approve, creates each as a new row in your blog database in its draft state.

  • Copywriter agentCopywriter

    Lists and reads your posts, and proposes an update to one as a before and after in your Inbox. Those tools exist only once a blog database is mapped.

  • Analyst agentAnalyst

    Starts the before-and-after re-reads for the article's tracked prompts once it is published through Notion.

Which columns do I map?

Only the title is required. The mapping is checked against the database when you save it.

Notion blog column mapping
FieldRequiredWhat to map
TitleYesThe title property
SlugNoA text property holding the post's slug
StatusNoA status, select or checkbox property, with its draft value and its published value
BodyNoEmpty means the page content. A text property is limited to 2,000 characters
Published dateNoA date property

A property that does not exist or has the wrong type is refused when you save, not at the first delivery.

What can the crew do with posts already in the database?

Once a blog database is mapped, the crew can list and read your posts and propose an update to one, shown as a before and after in your Inbox. Every article waits for your approval first, in every mode.

How do I connect Notion?

Three steps, from the workspace's connectors.

  1. Step 1

    Connect Notion

    Connect Notion and grant access to the page that holds your blog database.

  2. Step 2

    Pick the blog database

    Choose the database your posts live in.

  3. Step 3

    Map the columns

    Tell Attensira which property holds the title, and optionally the slug, status, body and published date.

What will the crew never do in Notion?

It adds rows and, with your yes, replaces a post's content. It never removes anything.

After your yes, it can

  • Create a new row in your blog database, as a draft
  • Replace an existing post's content with the update you approved
  • In Act mode, set a new row to published when the mapping has a published value

Never

  • Delete a Notion post
  • Change a post's status when it updates it
  • Duplicate a post whose title already exists
  • Destroy the old content: replaced blocks are archived, so Notion's history keeps them

When does a Notion article go live?

Every article waits for your approval first, in every mode.

Ask or Draft
The new row stays a draft for your team to publish in Notion.
Act
The row is set to published, with today's date, only if the mapping has a published value and the article passed the draft check. Otherwise it stays a draft.
Updates
An update to an existing post always waits for your approval, Act included.

Which question is a new post in the database for?

One no page answers yet. This answer cites a forum thread and names no tool, which is the opening: a post that answers it plainly, drafted into the Notion database for you to publish.

Answer · Perplexityasked

Question: can I invoice in two currencies as a freelancer

Perplexity answered: Yes, if your invoicing tool supports it: you can issue an invoice in the client's currency and record the converted amount in your own, but tools differ in how they handle the exchange rate.

Questions about Notion

Can Attensira publish to my Notion blog?
Every article waits for your approval first. Approving creates a draft row. Only in Act mode, and only if you mapped a published value and the article passed the draft check, is the row set to published with today's date. Otherwise your team publishes it by changing its status.
Does Attensira delete or overwrite Notion posts?
It never deletes a post. An approved update replaces the post's content, and the old blocks are archived rather than deleted, so Notion's own history still has them. An update never changes the post's status.
What happens if a post with the same title exists?
It is not duplicated. The item comes back to you with a link to the existing post.
Do I need a body column in my Notion database?
No. Leave the body mapping empty and the article is written as the page content. If you map a text property instead, it is limited to 2,000 characters.
Can Notion take articles meant for WordPress?
Yes. WordPress cannot take new articles yet, so an article for a WordPress site goes to your Notion blog when Notion is connected, and otherwise comes to you as a copy to paste.
When does Attensira start measuring a Notion article?
When it is published through Notion. That starts the same before-and-after re-reads as a merged pull request, at +7, +14 and +30 days, for the tracked prompts attached to the article.
