Hi everyone,
We’re building an AI-driven business workflow system that integrates custom GPTs with Notion as the primary knowledge and process hub.
We’re currently on the Business Plan in Notion, and we also use Make (formerly Integromat) for external automations and webhook-based triggers.
We want to allow GPTs to not only write inside existing pages but also dynamically create structured Notion databases (calendar, table, kanban, etc.) based on natural language instructions — without requiring the user to manually click inside the Notion UI.
We’ve seen that:
- GPTs can create pages and simple blocks under a shared parent page, as long as permissions are granted.
- However, they fail to create full databases (structured with properties and views), often due to serialization or internal request issues (e.g. aiohttp failing silently).
- Even when the GPT generates the correct Notion API request, it won’t go through unless run manually with curl or similar tools.
We’re looking to confirm:
- Has anything changed in 2024/2025 regarding GPT’s ability to create Notion databases (of any type)?
- Are there updates to the OpenAI GPT Actions system, or the Notion API, that allow this use case to work?
- Are there verified examples where GPTs create databases dynamically based on prompt input (with structured properties and relation fields)?
Our end goal: a GPT agent that can autonomously generate new tools inside Notion — not just fill in templates, but build them from scratch when needed.
Any help, updates, or working examples would be greatly appreciated!
