Create Commands

Rules, limits, and edge cases for create commands.

Source modes

Source mode What to know
Choose in Discord Flexible, but panel buttons cannot launch it
Selected database Best fit for structured forms and database-property quick actions
Selected parent page Best fit for page trees and documentation flows

Limits and rules

  • Setups with both Notion and a Discord server install start with /create-page, a normal Choose in Discord create command with Title, Page content, Attachments, and Add comment plus Upload files on the created-page card.
  • The create modal supports up to 5 total fields, including Title.
  • Database-backed commands can use supported database properties plus Page content and Attachments.
  • Commands that create under a Discord-chosen or fixed parent page use only basic page fields; Page content and Attachments can be optional or required.
  • Quick actions are available on every created-item card. Add comment and Upload files work for any source; Status, Select, and People quick actions require a database-backed command.
  • Files uploaded into Notion can appear as Discord attachments on created-item cards. External file blocks stay links.
  • The saved Card language localizes the created-item card and preview.
  • Database-backed and page-backed create commands can optionally start a private Discord thread after submit.
  • Fixed-source create commands register a slash command and can optionally register a Discord message action. New fixed-source commands start with the message action on; existing commands stay off until you turn it on. Choose in Discord commands register only the slash command.
  • Message actions open a details-card draft first with Create and Edit & Create. AI-assisted defaults can fill configured modal fields from the selected message, and NotiCord falls back to message text, link, timestamp, author, and attachment filenames when AI defaults are unavailable.
  • Attachments on the selected Discord message fill the create command Attachments field only when that field is configured, up to the same 5-file modal limit.

Draft setup

  • New create commands can be saved as drafts from the editor and reopened from Discord Commands with Finish setup.
  • Drafts do not register slash commands, register message actions, create pages, or appear in the public API.
  • Draft command names do not reserve slash commands until the command is created.
  • While the editor is open, switching sources or databases keeps unsaved source-specific setup for each source so you can switch back before creating or saving.
  • Drafts count toward the create command limit until you create or delete them.
  • Existing saved commands use Save changes; NotiCord does not create draft branches for existing commands.

Naming and preview rules

  • Create-command slugs must be unique inside the connected Discord server install.
  • Preview uses the current draft rather than the last saved version.
  • The in-app preview is read-only.
  • If the saved source later breaks, the create command stays visible with a configuration error instead of disappearing.
