Turn any URL into a structured Notion note
An n8n workflow fetches a submitted URL, strips it to readable content, has OpenAI summarise it into structured fields, and saves a Notion note.
What they did
A webhook receives a URL, an HTTP Request node fetches the page, and a Code node removes scripts, styles and tags, then truncates the text to 8,000 characters. OpenAI, in JSON output mode, returns title, summary, key insights and tags. The Notion node maps these to six properties with no parsing step.
How it went
Stripping the HTML first cut the payload from about 60K tokens to under 4K. Summaries improved and cost dropped significantly. JavaScript-heavy single-page apps return empty shell HTML, and some sites block requests.
Worth knowing
Share the Notion database with your n8n integration first, or the write fails silently. Adding a Mozilla/5.0 User-Agent header clears most 403 errors.
