Nightly Notion backup (Schedule → Notion → Drive → Slack)

An n8n scheduled workflow that performs nightly backups of a Notion knowledge base by fetching all recently updated pages, converting them to a markdown bundle with metadata, and uploading the archive to Google Drive. A Slack notification confirms the backup status, ensuring your team's documentation is always recoverable and version-tracked.
