Recipe: Slack to Notion Triage

Goal

Capture important Slack mentions, classify them, create a Notion item for tracking, and route urgent cases to an escalation channel.

Typical trigger

• mention of a bot in Slack
• reactions on flagged messages
• specific channel messages matching a pattern

Systems involved

• Slack
• Notion
• optional AI classification step
• optional email or secondary Slack alert

Core steps

1. Listen for the configured Slack trigger.
2. Normalize message text, author, channel, and timestamp.
3. Classify urgency and category.
4. Create a Notion page or database item.
5. Route urgent messages to an escalation destination.
6. Write a final status field for reporting.

Important assumptions

• urgency rules should be explicit and editable
• Notion database schema is known or mapped in advance
• Slack formatting should be simplified before storage

What makes this recipe good for demos

• looks modern and relatable
• easy to understand visually
• strong before-and-after story from message to tracked item

Validation checklist

• trigger fires only for intended messages
• urgency logic is deterministic
• Notion fields are mapped correctly
• urgent path and normal path both succeed
• duplicate handling is defined
