  Perform the operation of setting up an automated workflow in Notion using Notion-MCP to create a new page titled 'Weekly Team Meeting Notes' every Monday at 9 AM, including sections for agenda, attendees, and action items.

  To set up an automated workflow in Notion using Notion-MCP to create a new page titled 'Weekly Team Meeting Notes' every Monday at 9 AM, follow these steps:

  1. Access Notion-MCP:

     • Ensure you have access to the Notion-MCP server. This tool allows you to automate tasks within Notion.

  2. Create a Template in Notion:

     • First, create a template in Notion that includes the sections you want: Agenda, Attendees, and Action Items.
     • To do this, open Notion and create a new page. Title it "Weekly Team Meeting Notes Template."
     • Add the sections:
       • Agenda: Use a heading or bullet points to outline the agenda.
       • Attendees: Create a list or table to note down attendees.
       • Action Items: Use a checklist or table to track action items.

  3. Set Up the Automation:

     • Use Notion-MCP to automate the creation of this page every Monday at 9 AM.
     • Since I don't have direct access to execute this operation, I'll guide you through the process conceptually:
       • Schedule the Task: Use a scheduling tool or script that interfaces with Notion-MCP to trigger the creation of a new page based on your template every Monday at 9 AM.
       • Script Example: You might use a script in a language like Python, utilizing a task scheduler like cron (on Unix systems) or Task Scheduler (on Windows) to run the script at the specified time.

  4. Example Script:

     • Here is a conceptual example of what the script might look like:

       import notion_mcp
       
       def create_weekly_meeting_notes():
           # Connect to Notion
           client = notion_mcp.connect(api_key='your_api_key')
       
           # Define the template page ID
           template_page_id = 'your_template_page_id'
       
           # Create a new page from the template
           new_page = client.create_page_from_template(
               template_id=template_page_id,
               title='Weekly Team Meeting Notes',
               parent_id='your_parent_page_id'
           )
       
           print(f"New page created: {new_page['url']}")
       
       # Schedule this function to run every Monday at 9 AM
       

  5. Testing and Verification:

     • After setting up the script, test it to ensure it creates the page correctly.
     • Verify that the page is created with the correct title and sections.

  6. Monitor and Adjust:

     • Monitor the automation to ensure it runs smoothly every week.
     • Make adjustments as necessary, such as updating the template or fixing any issues with the script.

  By following these steps, you can automate the creation of a 'Weekly Team Meeting Notes' page in Notion every Monday at 9 AM using Notion-MCP. If you need further assistance with the script or setup, feel free to ask!
