Integrate Notion with Amazon SNS

Notion is a task management system for planning, managing and tracking tasks.

Notion differentiates itself from other systems by providing visual overview, integrated calendar, which makes it easy to stay on top of things without having to go back and forth between the system and your email.

Amazon SNS is a popular service offered by Amazon Web Services that allows users to build web services using publish-subscribe model. A user can set up an application that listens for events published by another application or event source. An event source sends notifications to registered subscribers.
