How to extract inline database ID from a Notion page?

[Hyeonho_Gim]

Hi everyone!
I’m trying to build a Make scenario where I extract the ID of an inline database that’s embedded inside a Notion page.

So far, I’ve successfully retrieved the main page ID using the “Search Objects” or “Watch Database Items” modules. However, I now want to go one step further and get the ID of the inline database (child database) within that page.

Has anyone done this before?

• Which module should I use to access the blocks inside the page?
• Can I extract the child database ID from the block structure?
• Is it possible to identify it by its type (child_database) using the HTTP or “List Page Content” module?

Any tips, examples, or suggestions would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi Hyeonho,

• You can use the “List page contents” module - this will output all the blocks on the page
• Yes you can - you will find one of the blocks in the output will have a “type” = “child_database”

Hi, I’m trying to extract the child_database block from a Notion page using List Page Contents, then pass it through an Iterator and filter it based on the block type.

Here’s my flow:

1. Notion - Watch Database Items (trigger)
2. Notion - List Page Contents (to get internal blocks of a page)
3. Iterator (to handle each block individually)
4. Filter → I want to pass only the block.type == child_database items
5. Update Notion DB with that block’s info

---

However, in the filter after the Iterator, the only available field is Value, with no subfields like type, object, etc. Even though I know from the List Page Contents output that each block has a type field (e.g. callout, paragraph, child_database), I can’t access it after the iterator.

I’ve tried mapping:

• Iterator[Value]
• Iterator[Object]
• Iterator[Value].type ← Not available
• Even setting the array input to Page Content ID or Object

But after the iterator, only a flat Value remains in the filter condition. I need to filter only child_database blocks, but can’t access type.

What I need to know:

How do I access type in the filter after the iterator?
Or, how do I filter for child_database blocks after listing contents of a Notion page?

“List page contents” already outputs each block as a separate bundle, so there is no need for the Iterator. You can then filter like below (1. Type is mapped from the “List page contents” module directly
