Add a database row in Notion when a new message comes in to Front

What each client fills in

Notion: Database ID

For example the 32 characters in the database URL

Notion: Title column

For example Name

The accounts it needs

Each is the client’s own, stored encrypted and never copied between clients. Until one is added the client’s checklist shows it, and nothing runs.

• Front

  In the client’s Front: Settings → Developers → API tokens → Create API token with the Shared resources namespace and the Read and Write permissions (Write for the contact step, Read for the triggers, which list events).

• 

  notion.so/profile/integrations → New integration (Internal) in the client’s workspace → Capabilities: Read content, Insert content and Update content (the row update needs the last) → copy the secret. Then open the database → ••• → Connections → add the integration.

After you install it

It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:

1. Connect the client’s Front, for “A new message comes in”
2. Connect the client’s Notion, for “Add a database row”
3. Fill in Notion: Database ID (For example the 32 characters in the database URL)
4. Fill in Notion: Title column (For example Name)
