Pros
- I have a Zapier automation that plays dance music every time I close a sale. It has different tiers too so depending on how big the sale was it also triggers colorful lights and a cheap colorful disco lamp thing.
- I have a zapier automation that triggers when I star an email. Then it makes a task in notion.
- And a cool trick I found is that, with Zapier, the agent can add items to databases which triggers a zap that sends me a mail!
- We use Zapier on top of Notion for a LOT of work. Automations are good but limited. Zapier is what makes data in Notion truly usable across tools.
- I suggest using an automation tool such as n8n, Zapier, or Make to fetch the daily exchange rate.
Cons
- Been trying to do it wirh Zapier but there are a couple of things missing.
- or do you guys use zapier to pipe transcriptions in?
- I’ve set up a rudimentary Zapier flow that puts new calendar events into a notion database. I’m sure it could do a lot more, but it technically works. Not sure if what I’m doing with Zapier is included with their free plan but for now th...
- Zapier only really helps if there’s a very clear, predictable mapping between Drive and Notion. If the structure is fuzzy, automation just amplifies the mess.
- Getting data in or out for other tools requires either Zapier (expensive, limited), Make.com (powerful but fragile), or manual export/import cycles that make me want to cry.
