Automate Google Contacts Management with Notion Triggers
detail.loadingPreview
Seamlessly sync your Notion database with Google Contacts. Automatically create, update, or delete contacts based on Notion page activity, ensuring your contact information is always up-to-date across platforms.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow provides a robust solution for synchronizing your Notion database with Google Contacts. It leverages Notion triggers for page creation and updates to initiate automated contact management processes. The workflow intelligently handles new contacts by searching for existing entries and either creating new ones in Google Contacts or updating existing records. It also includes logic for deleting contacts when pages are marked as deleted in Notion. By extracting key information like phone numbers and addresses from Notion, and managing contact updates with ETag persistence, this workflow ensures data consistency and reduces manual effort.
Key Features
- Bi-directional Sync: Automatically create, update, and delete Google Contacts based on changes in your Notion database.
- Smart Contact Matching: Prevents duplicate contacts by searching for existing entries before creating or updating.
- Data Extraction: Pulls specific contact details like phone numbers and addresses from Notion properties.
- ETag Management: Persists ETag information to ensure efficient and accurate updates to Google Contacts.
- Customizable Triggers: Utilizes Notion page creation and update events to initiate automation.
How To Use
- Configure Notion Triggers: Set up 'Page Created' and 'Page Updated' triggers for your relevant Notion database.
- Set up Globals: Define global variables in the 'Globals' and 'Globals2' nodes to store API keys or other necessary connection details for Notion and Google Contacts.
- Retrieve Groups (Optional): If you need to categorize contacts, use the 'List all groups1' node to fetch your Google Contact groups.
- Process Notion Data: Use the 'Notion1' node to retrieve data from your Notion pages.
- Check for Existing Contacts: Employ the 'Find contact' node to search for a contact in Google Contacts based on information from Notion.
- Conditional Logic: Use the 'new contact' and 'Page deleted' IF nodes to branch your workflow based on whether a contact already exists or if a Notion page has been deleted.
- Create or Update Contacts: Configure the 'Google | Create Contact' and 'Google | Update Contact' nodes to add new contacts or modify existing ones in Google Contacts.
- Extract and Set Data: Utilize the 'Extract phones and addresses1' and 'Set lastUpdatedByAutomation1' nodes to process and format the data for Google Contacts and other potential API calls.
- Manage ETag: Use the 'Save ETag' nodes to store the ETag of updated contacts for future synchronization.
- Delete Contacts: If a Notion page is marked for deletion, use the 'Delete contact' node to remove the corresponding entry from Google Contacts.
