We're excited to announce a powerful new feature for Copy To Notion: web article clipping! This update allows you to save articles from any website directly into your Notion workspace, preserving formatting and readability.
Universal Compatibility: Clip articles from any website
Flexible Storage: Save to both Notion databases and pages
Format Preservation: Maintains most HTML elements, including:
Headings
Links
Images
Tables
Quotes
Numbered lists
Bulleted list
Code blocks
And more!
Our extension automatically strips away clutter like buttons, ads, and unnecessary elements, ensuring a smoother reading experience in your Notion workspace.
When saving an article to a Notion page, it creates a child page with a clickable title that links directly to the original source.
Trigger the article clipping functionality in three convenient ways:
Click the toolbar icon and select "Article"
Right-click to open the context menu and select "Article"
Use a custom keyboard shortcut
This feature is available in Copy To Notion v0.17.1 and later. Update your extension to start clipping web articles today!

CSS selectors allow you to precisely identify and extract specific content from web pages and save it to your Notion database. This feature is particularly useful when you want to capture certain parts of a webpage, such as titles, author names, or specific paragraphs (e.g. capturing a LinkedIn profile).

New
A new tab "Site Settings" has been added to the database form settings. This allows users to define specific websites or lists of websites where a particular form will be automatically selected by default.
Define a site or list of sites for default form selection.
Specify exact webpages:
Example: chatgpt.com/c/chat123
to select the form for that specific chat page.
Use wildcards (*
) to generalize the selection across multiple pages:
Example: www.amazon.com/*
to select the form for all pages under the Amazon domain.
Use commas to specify multiple sites:
Example: gmail.com/*,outlook*
to select the form for both Gmail and Outlook.
Scenario: Save products found on Amazon to a Notion database.
How It Works: When you are on Amazon and open the Copy To Notion extension, the form for saving products will be automatically selected.
Scenario: Save LinkedIn profiles and job offers to different Notion databases.
How It Works:
Profiles form: When you visit www.linkedin.com/in/*
, the form for saving LinkedIn profiles will be automatically selected.
Job Offers form: When you visit www.linkedin.com/jobs/*
, the form for saving job offers will be automatically selected.
Scenario: Save emails from Gmail and Outlook to the same Notion database.
How It Works: When you visit gmail.com/*
or outlook*
, the form for saving emails will be automatically selected for all pages under both domains.
This feature helps prevent mistakes and saves time by automatically selecting the correct database form based on the site you are visiting.

New
Added a small arrow next to text and URL fields.
When clicked, it allows you to select any element on the current webpage and the extension automatically fills the related field with the element's content.
Now it supports two field types:
If the field is a text field (such as page title, page content, or any text property), it will retrieve the content of the selected HTML element.
If the field is a URL field, it will retrieve the URL if the selected element is a URL; otherwise, it will retrieve the content.
