Create Notion Task

Use the Notion MCP server to create a new task for the user.

Workflow

  1. Interpret the request to extract:
    • Task title (required)
    • Optional due date
    • Optional status
    • Optional owner/assignee
    • Optional project or related page
  2. Identify the appropriate "Tasks" database:
    • Prefer a database whose name or description clearly indicates tasks/todo items.
    • If more than one candidate exists, ask the user to choose.
  3. Create a new row with:
    • Title set to the task title.
    • Due date, Status, Owner, Project, or similar properties mapped when available.
  4. Confirm creation by returning:
    • Task title
    • Key properties
    • Link or identifier.

Important

If required properties are missing or the tasks database cannot be confidently identified, ask a concise clarification question before making changes.
