Bardeen's playbook "Save current tab to Notion" is a simple yet powerful tool for enhancing your personal productivity. It captures the information from your current browser tab and saves it directly into your Notion workspace. Notion is an all-in-one workspace designed to consolidate your work apps into a single, manageable platform. This workflow is ideal for content curation, research documentation, and saving references without the hassle of manually copying and pasting URLs.

Here's how this workflow can effortlessly capture information from your browser to Notion:

  • Step 1: Capture Current Tab - Bardeen retrieves the details of the currently focused browser tab, ensuring that the tab you are actively viewing is the one being saved.
  • Step 2: Create Notion Page - The information from the captured tab is used to create a new page within a specified Notion database, allowing you to organize your web findings effectively.

How to run the playbook

Save the currently opened tab to Notion with one click.

Step 1: Set up a resources database in Notion

First, you will need to set up a Notion database for useful links and resources. Alternatively, you can duplicate our pre-built database that we designed for this use case. When you run the playbook on your currently opened tab, Bardeen will get information like Tab title, URL, and Website Icon.

Step 2: Pin the Playbook and integrate Notion

Click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to get this Playbook saved to your playbooks.

Then we need to map data from Bardeen's Scraper to Notion.

To do this, hover over the playbook card and “Open Playbook in Builder.” 

From here, customize the “Action 2: Add Notion page” action. Enter your Notion database and map the data fields using “custom field mapping.”

Save the playbook and close the builder. 

Step 3: Run the Playbook to save current tab to Notion

Click on the Playbook card when you want to save the current tab to Notion. One click and boom! Watch the magic happen.

Google Sheets: What is the best way to export data to Google Sheets?

Exporting data (ex: scraped data or app data) from Bardeen to Google Sheets is possible with our action to “Add Rows to Google Sheets”.

Playbooks: My shared playbook is not updating, how can I share an updated version?

For your shared playbook to be updated, you need to unshare your playbook and share it again. This will generate a new link. ‍To do this: ‍1) Edit the playbook. 2) Unshare it (click on share, then the “unshare” button) 3) Share it again

Scraper: If I scrape LinkedIn profiles, will they see me checking their profile?

Yes. Since Bardeen lives on your browser, Playbooks like "Enrich Linkedin links from a Google Sheet" open the Linkedin profiles in the background and scrape their information. This happens from your currently opened Linkedin account, so people can see you've visited their profile.

Bardeen - Playbook / Autobooks: Is it possible to create a Playbook that scrapes data from a website and sends it as an email attachment?

You can create a Bardeen Playbook to scrape data from a website and then send that data as an email attachment.
