Archive newsletters to Notion

To archive newsletters to Notion, you can follow this streamlined process depending on your preferred tools and workflow:


🔧 Method 1: Use Notion Web Clipper (Manual but Simple)

  1. Open the newsletter (in your email or web browser).

  2. Use the Notion Web Clipper browser extension.

  3. Click the extension and choose your Notion workspace and destination page/database.

  4. Customize the title or tags, then save.

  5. The newsletter content and link will now be in Notion.

Best For: Occasional archiving, minimal setup.


🤖 Method 2: Automate with Zapier (Recommended for Consistent Archiving)

  1. Create a Notion database called “Newsletter Archive” with properties like:

    • Title

    • Date

    • Source

    • Content (rich text or URL)

  2. Set up a Zap in Zapier:

    • Trigger: New email in Gmail (with a specific label like “Newsletter”)

    • Filter (Optional): Subject contains newsletter name or sender.

    • Action: Create a new item in Notion with email subject, body, and date.

Tip: Label your newsletter emails automatically using Gmail filters.


📨 Method 3: Email-to-Notion Tools (Easy Automation)

Use tools like Notion Mail, Save to Notion, or Mailist:

  • These tools provide a Notion-connected inbox.

  • You forward newsletters to your dedicated email address.

  • They parse and send content directly to a Notion database.

Pros: Minimal setup, great formatting.
Cons: Some require a subscription.


📥 Bonus: Create a Dedicated Newsletter Database in Notion

  • Set up columns like:

    • Name (title)

    • Date

    • Sender

    • Topic (select/multi-select)

    • Content Preview (text or snippet)

    • Link to Full Content (URL)

This makes newsletters searchable and taggable by topic or sender.


🔁 Optional: Archive From RSS

If your newsletters are also available via RSS:

  1. Use Notion Automations or Zapier + RSS to monitor feeds.

  2. New items are auto-added to Notion with metadata.


Choose your method based on how often you receive newsletters and whether you prefer manual or automated archiving. Let me know if you want a custom Notion database template or Zapier setup guide.
