How to transfer articles from Instapaper to Notion?

Hi , 

 

Is any detailed explanation about how to setup the process for sending data to Notion DB? 

today, when I read some articles on internet, I save them in Instapaper. 

However, notion is my 2nd brain so that I would like to transfer those articles / news / info to an appointed DB in Notion. 

 

Have anyone tried this before?

Hey @Lousan520! 

As Troy mentioned, the Instapaper integration doesn’t have any available triggers so it would not be possible to trigger a Zap when you add a new bookmark for articles. There’s an existing feature request for this though so I’ve added your vote for that.

I don’t have an estimate on when it would be possible but we’ll be sure to notify you by email once it’s been implemented. :)

Hi @Lousan520! Notion has an integration with Zapier, which you can find here: https://zapier.com/apps/notion/integrations. One of the triggers gives you the possibility to send data to the database of your Notion workspace. You could use ‘Push by Zapier’ as a trigger for example.

Hi , 

 

It looks like Notion to Instapaper is ok. ( this direction ) . 

However, if I want Instapepr to Notion then it might not available.

for example,  

I selected Instapaper first then there was no trigger item (empty ) can be selected in trigger event.

how to proceed ?

Hi , 

Hi @Lousan520 

Instapaper has 0 Zap triggers available: https://zapier.com/apps/instapaper/integrations#triggers-and-actions

 

I would like to know if instapaper can add new rcords to Notion via Zapier? 

meaning when one record is added on Instrapaer then new records is added in Notion through Zaper API. 

I must need Instapaper -→ Notion this direction. 

 

Thank you.

    You could use ‘Push to Zapier’ as the trigger, to push an article to both Instapaper and Notion at the same time :)
