Let’s set it up!

Step 1: Create A Notion database

The first step is to create a Notion database with the Google News information that you want to save.

Bardeen will extract information from the currently opened Google News page and save information like headline, description, date, publication, and link. It will then save all this information to your Notion database once your setup is complete. 

Step 2: Install the extension and run the playbook to save data from the Google News page to Notion

You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Notion.

Click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to get this automation saved to your Playbooks. If it’s your first time using Bardeen, you will be redirected to install the extension.

Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard) and click on the playbook card. The setup flow will start. 

You will be asked to specify a Notion database and the maximum number of items you would like to extract. After you choose the database, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in Notion.

The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will scrape for you. On the right side, specify the fields in Notion that you want to associate with the information on the left. If you don’t want a piece of information, leave that field empty, and it will be skipped. That’s it!

Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Notion. This will save you time from setup in the future. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 3: Start automating Google News and Notion workflow

When you want to save a list of Google News items to your Notion database, navigate to the Google News search results page.

Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard) and run this playbook. It will save all the information to your Notion database with one click. 

This automation is fantastic for researchers and analysts who often need to gather and analyze large volumes of news data to uncover trends, track market developments, or monitor public sentiment.
