Create Commands

Create commands let people fill out a short Discord form or start from an existing Discord message, then create a Notion task, page, bug report, or support ticket without leaving the channel. After setup, NotiCord starts you with /create-page for creating basic shared pages.

A Discord create form creating a new Notion item through NotiCord
Good create commands feel like a quick intake form, not a full Notion editor.

Pick the right source

Source Best fit
Choose in Discord The same command should work against different parent pages at run time
Selected database Structured intake where every submission belongs in one database
Selected parent page One fixed project page, docs area, or page tree

Build a good first command

  1. Open Discord Commands and stay on the Create commands tab.
  2. Edit /create-page, or click Add command for another create flow.
  3. Name the command, choose the source, and keep the slash command short and obvious.
  4. In Create modal, keep only the fields people can answer from Discord.
  5. In Created item content, show only the fields people still need after submit.
  6. Create the command, or click Save draft if you need to finish setup later. Once the command is created, test it with realistic data in Discord.

Create from a Discord message

When Create from selected messages is enabled on a fixed-source command, people can right-click or long-press a Discord message and choose the create command from the message actions menu. NotiCord drafts a full details card from the message text, link, timestamp, author, and supported attachments, then lets the person either Create immediately or open Edit & Create to adjust the fields first. Selected-message attachments are uploaded into the created Notion page only when the command includes the Attachments field.

Choose in Discord commands stay slash-only because the parent page must be chosen when the command runs.

Keep it lightweight

  • Lead with the title so people know what they are creating.
  • Keep required fields to the minimum that still makes the new page useful.
  • If people need follow-up work, use the result card, quick actions, or a private thread instead of a bloated modal.
Common gotchas
Panel buttons and Discord message actions can launch only fixed-source create commands; message actions also need Create from selected messages turned on. Comment and file-upload quick actions work on every created-page card; property quick actions work only on database-backed create commands. Private threads help only when every new page needs follow-up discussion.
