Notion Quick Entry Widget: Super fast Notion item entry with widget or Siri

A Shortcut to allow you to add items to a specified Notion database as quickly as possible. Ideal for use as an Inbox to get your items into Notion for organising later. Works with Siri too!

Have you ever wished for a quicker way to get your ideas into Notion? The lack of a quick entry solution prompted me to create this Shortcut. I'm very pleased with the results, but it took a LONG time to set up. It took me a few hours of pulling my hair out to get it working in the first place, and a few days to really fine tune it. Even when you know how the Notion API and Shortcuts work, creating complex Shortcuts is a time consuming process, and this one has nearly 100 actions. Hopefully, this will save you hours of messing around trying to figure everything out. Simply install the shortcut, enter the details of your own Notion setup, and you're ready to go. Included is a guide to getting you set up for the first time - which will take just a few minutes. You can duplicate the same Shortcut to use with different databases - e.g. an inbox for Actions, an inbox for Notes, etc. I hope you find it useful, and I'm here to answer questions if you get stuck. Thanks for checking it out! Joe

Lol, I also build the same stuff for myself like a month ago😅 Also it is very cool that you can add shortcut icon to the Home Screen with customized icon. It saving a lot of time if we are comparing to typical way of filling the ideas/task to notion(loading time, opening time, etc.). Thanks for sharing👌🏻 Will give the link to your widget to my colleagues cause Mine don’t have the instruction and onboarding flow 😅

It’s sped things up so much for me - I hope your colleagues find it useful. Thanks for sharing :) Just installed the beta of Nection. Looks interesting so far - I just narrowed down a gazillion contacts to the ones I want to actively keep in touch with :)
