Let’s say I want to write my tweets in a notion database and publish them to twitter automatically.
If I write the text of my tweet inside my notion page content, there is no way to retrieve it in zapier. I have an 1. Object Page as show in
In the end the only thing that can be accessed are the database properties and not the page content, so I ended up creating a property called “text” and then added my tweet text in it, but it’s not really beautiful.
It would be cool to have the possibility to access the text that is inside a page and not having to add a property.
Notion New Item in Database trigger doesn't include content of the page

Hi all,
Just circling back in here with a belated update to share that the feature request has been implemented! 🎉
In case you missed the email notification that was sent out, here’s the key information from it:
We have enhanced the integration to pull the top level of block data from the items that are returned and format it as Markdown, which should cover many cases. This data is presented in all the triggers, actions, and searches that deal with pages and database items.
In some cases, data is nested within deeper blocks. In these instances, we return the data in a list called "Unsupported Blocks" and these can be used within the "Retreive Block Children" search to find deeper nested content. This happens in the case of items like sub-pages and tables, which are not presented to us within the first API call. Because this block data can be arbitrarily nested, we only make one call to get the first level.
If you run into any issues with these changes please let us know in the Community or reach out to our Support team directly and we’ll be happy to assist.
In the meantime, happy Zapping! ⚡
