Question

The goal is to get a notification in inbox within notion whenever the status of a database item is changed (within a specific database only).
I couldn't find such a feature in make.com and the notion pro automations only seem to be able to notify using slack.
Any suggestions?

Answer 1

You can try something like this.

Create a new person property called review.
Create one automation with the following.

When the status changes to X status, add X person to the review column.

That will trigger the notification to let the user know there is a new status change.

Or create a text review column and the automation instead of adding a user, will create a text with @ to mention the user you need.

There are more options and you can also do it using Make, but in both cases it is not a feature, you have to create the automation as you need it.
