You'll need time for this one...

The last few weeks were pretty light on content. This week is a big one. You might want to block a solid chunk of time to go through it all.

It's already a very full newsletter, let's just dive straight into it today!

Editing Notion Forms: After submitting a form, you can now let people edit their submissions. It's only available for internal, non-anonymous forms for now. Go to the Sharing settings of your form to turn this on.

Recurring Automations: This is huge! And while I cannot find any official announcement, the documentation is available here. Here are a few screenshots (from my workspace) of this new feature:
