How it works

The Notion Database Assistant uses an AI Agent built with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to query this Knowledge Base style Notion database. The assistant can search across multiple properties like tags or question and retrieves content from inside individual Notion pages for additional context.

Key features include:

• Querying the database with flexible filters.
• Searching within individual Notion pages and extracting relevant blocks.
• Providing a reference link to the exact Notion pages used to inform its responses, ensuring transparency and easy verification.
• This assistant uses two HTTP request tools—one for querying the Notion database and another for pulling data from within specific pages. It streamlines knowledge retrieval, offering a conversational, AI-driven way to interact with large datasets.
