  • How do I create a single Slack message for multiple Notion database updates in a short time?

Hi, I'm trying to create a zap to send slack messages periodically when a notion database is updated. This is doable in itself with the Notion - Updated Database Item event, but I can't figure out how to just create a single event for multiple database updates in a short time. For example, if a database entry is updated five times in an hour (or whatever time period) I want this to result in one single message, not five. Any way to do this that I am missing?

Hi @manseman 

Good question.

You would need to do some sort of logging to find/create in a Zap.

Then a separate Zap that runs on a schedule to find records within a given time period.

You can use Airtable for this.

Airtable Automations have a native integration with Slack.

 

Or you can explore using the Digest app, but that will send 1 message with the content repeated 5 times.
