Find and Replace on a Page
Change text on a page by quoting it — Notion's own Markdown edit.
What this action does #
First, connect Notion in Services. Then open Actions → + → Notion and choose Find and Replace on a Page.
To find this direct request action, choose Every Notion endpoint in the integration’s picker. The setup guide also explains the dedicated forms for common tasks.
What a run does
Running or testing this action changes something in your connected service.
More about this action
Find is matched against the page as Read a Page writes it, case and all, and must appear exactly once. Replace With is Markdown, so it can add blocks as well as change words: quote a line and write it again with a new line after it.
Inputs to fill in #
Open an input to choose its value. Keep a fixed value with Text, receive it from Shortcuts, ask when the action runs, or use an Earlier Step. Read how input sources work.
Find
RequiredTextText on the page, exactly as Read a Page writes it.

What comes back #
In the action editor, open Output → Returned Value to choose fields for your shortcut. These are the response fields described by the app; a service may omit an optional field or return an empty list. JSON File contains the full response.
| Returned field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
id | string | The page's ID. |
markdown | string | The whole page afterwards, as Markdown. |
truncated | boolean | True or false. |
Run it from Shortcuts #
- Give the action a recognizable name and tap Save.
- In Apple Shortcuts, add Shortcutify’s Execute Action and select the saved action.
- Supply any Param or File slots you bound in the inputs, then run the shortcut.
If the result is unexpected, open Logs in Shortcutify, select the run, and inspect this step’s inputs and response.
