This tutorial explains how to update Notion pages from Slack. Here I will mention a simple app, Slack to Notion that you can connect to a Slack workspace and a Notion database. Later, you can activate that app from Slack and update the Notion database easily. You only have to connect Notion just once. After that, you can launch the app when you want to update a sheet, list, or some other kind of data.

Notion offers Slack integration but the reverse is not supported yet. And this, someone created this third-party Slack app which you can use. It generates a UI depending on the database/page to update on Notion side. Also, this is in beta stage now and sometimes it has server connection problems. While authorizing this app to access your Notion account, you can let this app access all the pages or just the specific ones.

If you switch keep switching between browser tabs to update data from Slack to Notion then you can now stop doing that. Just use the app mentioned here and once you authorize your Notion account; you can update data without opening the Notion website. It makes the data update very easy for Slack users. And in the later updates, I hope it offers more flexibility and other features.
