Issues with Notion Find Item Action and Automatic Item Creation

·Oct 16, 2025 09:41 AM·

Has anyone used the “Notion Find Item” action? It says that it is optional to create a new item if no item is found, but I can’t find a setting to turn off the creation of a new item and my Lindy is creating new database items when I don’t want it to.

Hey Anthony! A couple things you could try here:
Try using the 'Get Page' action
OR using the 'Find Database Item' in an AI Agent and add to the prompt a note saying "If no database Item was found, do not create a new database item"
Please let me know if that helps 🙏
