Autofill

Using a database to store a large collection of meeting notes, tasks, or projects? Try using Notion AI on a database property to generate summaries, extract action items, and more.

To use AI Autofill with a text property:

1. Select + at the top right side of a database to add a new property.

2. Select Text → AI Autofill.

3. Open the menu next to Fill with and select an option:

   • Summary: AI summarizes the content of the page.

   • Translate: AI translates desired content into different languages.

   • Key info: AI extracts important information based on the content of the page.

   • Custom autofill: AI generates content based on your custom prompt.

You can let AI Autofill assign certain categories or keywords to items in your database. For example, you could have a shopping list where AI marks items as groceries, home goods, or something else.

1. Select + at the top right side of a database to add a new property.

2. Add a Select or Multi-select property, then toggle on AI Autofill.

3. You can also edit your select or multi-select property in a few ways:

   • Toggle on Generate new options. When this is turned on, AI will generate new options to apply to any new database entries.

   • Select More → Auto-update on page edits to set the property to update five minutes after changes are made to the page. You can also manually trigger AI to fill or update by hovering over a value and clicking the wand button that appears.

   • Select More → Autofill all pages.
