Example

Example workflow

A realistic weekly reminder scenario.

On Monday at 09:00, the AI agent fetches 12 tasks from the Notion database, excludes closed items, filters for overdue or due this week, builds an HTML digest with 3 overdue and 9 upcoming tasks, emails it to your work address, and sends a Pushover notification to your phone.

Common questions and detailed answers.

It reads tasks from the configured Notion database, including fields such as deadline, status, priority, and tags. It does not modify or delete data unless you explicitly configure actions. Access is restricted to the databases you authorize, and you can revoke access at any time. The agent operates within the Notion permissions model you provide during setup.

Yes. You can specify the recipient email address(es) and enable or disable the push notification. The setup allows you to add or remove recipients without altering your Notion data. You can also choose to send the digest to a single inbox or a distribution list for a team. Changes take effect on the next scheduled run.

The agent is designed to run weekly, typically at the start of the week. You can configure the exact day and time within the setup. If a run fails due to connectivity or authentication issues, the agent retries automatically on the next scheduled window. You can also temporarily pause the automation if needed.

If Notion is temporarily unavailable, the agent retries the fetch operation and logs the failure. It will notify you of the issue if the problem persists across consecutive runs. The digest will reflect only the tasks successfully retrieved. Once access is restored, the next run will resume normal processing.

Yes. You can adjust the HTML email template, including layout, color scheme, and which fields are shown. The agent supports customizing the headline, the list of fields per task, and how overdue versus upcoming items are presented. Design changes apply to the next weekly digest after publishing. You can revert to the default design at any time.

You can modify the filters to include broader sets of tasks, but removing the deadline filter may reduce the digest’s relevance. The agent supports flexible filtering by status, priority, or custom tags. If you disable the deadline filter, you will receive a digest that lists tasks regardless of deadlines, which is useful for a high-level review but may require more manual triage.

Pushover is one option for mobile alerts, but you can configure alternative notification methods supported by your environment. The agent is designed to be extendable to other push or alert services without changing the core workflow. You can disable push alerts if you only want email reminders. Integration setup guides cover how to switch notification providers if needed.
