Integration and API Spec

Strategic Planning Workflow

[YourCompany.com] · Management Department · Prepared by FullSpec · [Today's Date]

This document defines the complete integration and API specification for the Strategic Planning Workflow automation. It covers every tool in the stack, exact authentication requirements, required OAuth scopes, webhook and trigger configurations, field-level mappings between systems, orchestration architecture, credential store contents, and defined error-handling behaviour for every integration point. This document is intended for the FullSpec build team. No external developer or third party is involved. All build, configuration, and testing work is carried out by FullSpec.

All agents
Before you connect anything: configure and validate every integration against a sandbox or test environment before supplying production credentials. For Notion, use a test workspace. For HubSpot, use a developer sandbox account. For Google Sheets, use a duplicate sheet with anonymised data. For Slack, use a private test channel. No live business data should pass through any connection until integration tests pass in full.

02Per-tool integration detail

Notion

Notion is the central repository for goal submission pages, the master strategy page, and weekly goal status updates. The automation reads from and writes to Notion databases and pages via the Notion REST API. All page and database IDs are stored in the credential store, never hardcoded.

Auth method
OAuth 2.0 Internal Integration Token (Bearer token). Create an internal integration at notion.so/my-integrations, share each target database with the integration, and store the token in the credential store as NOTION_API_TOKEN.
Required scopes
read_content, update_content, insert_content, read_user_email_without_revealing (for department head identification). Notion internal integrations scope access at the database/page share level; the integration must be explicitly invited to each database used.
Webhook / trigger setup
Notion does not natively emit webhooks for page status changes. Agent 2 (Progress Tracking Agent) polls the goal submission database on a Monday morning schedule (cron: 0 8 * * 1). Agent 1 polls submission page completion status 48 hours before the cycle deadline via a scheduled check, not a webhook.
Required configuration
Four IDs must be stored in the credential store: (1) NOTION_MASTER_STRATEGY_DB_ID: the database ID of the master strategy page parent. (2) NOTION_SUBMISSION_TEMPLATE_PAGE_ID: the page ID of the canonical goal submission template. (3) NOTION_GOAL_STATUS_DB_ID: the database ID where department goal pages live. (4) NOTION_APPROVAL_FLAG_PROP: the exact property name of the approval toggle on the master page (default: 'Plan Approved'). Template pages must contain the placeholder properties: 'Department', 'Quarter', 'Goals', 'Status' (select: Not Started / In Progress / Complete), and 'Last Updated' (date).
Rate limits
Notion API: 3 requests/second per integration token. At current volume (4 cycles/year, up to 15 department pages per cycle, plus weekly Monday polls), peak load is approximately 20 to 30 API calls per run. Throttling is not required at this volume but the orchestration layer must enforce a 400ms inter-request delay to remain comfortably within the limit.
Constraints
Notion API does not support bulk page creation in a single request; each department submission page must be created with a separate POST. Rich text blocks must be written as Notion block objects, not plain strings. The integration token does not grant access to pages it has not been explicitly shared with: all target databases must be shared before the build runs.
// Input (Agent 1 - template duplication)
NOTION_SUBMISSION_TEMPLATE_PAGE_ID -> GET /pages/{id}
Department list (from credential store config) -> iterate
// Output (Agent 1 - template duplication)
POST /pages -> new submission page per department
  properties.Department = '{dept_name}'
  properties.Quarter = '{quarter_label}'
  properties.Status = 'Not Started'
// Input (Agent 1 - master consolidation)
GET /databases/{NOTION_GOAL_STATUS_DB_ID}/query -> all submission pages
// Output (Agent 1 - master consolidation)
PATCH /pages/{NOTION_MASTER_STRATEGY_DB_ID} -> append consolidated blocks
// Input (Agent 2 - progress read)
GET /databases/{NOTION_GOAL_STATUS_DB_ID}/query -> filter: Status != 'Not Started'
// Output (Agent 2 - progress report)
Completion percentages per department -> Slack payload
Google Sheets

Google Sheets is the source of financial and KPI data pulled at the start of each planning cycle. The Planning Data Agent reads designated cells and named ranges from the master financial spreadsheet and writes summary values into the master Notion strategy page.

Auth method
OAuth 2.0 via a Google Cloud service account. Create a service account in the Google Cloud project, download the JSON key file, share the target spreadsheet with the service account email, and store credentials as GSHEETS_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_JSON in the credential store. Do not use a personal Google OAuth flow.
Required scopes
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets.readonly (read-only is sufficient; the agent does not write back to Sheets). If a future build requires writing summary rows, add https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets.
Webhook / trigger setup
No webhook. Google Sheets does not emit native webhooks for cell changes in a way the automation can consume reliably. The Planning Data Agent pulls data on a scheduled trigger that fires once when the planning cycle is initiated. No ongoing polling is required.
Required configuration
Store in credential store: GSHEETS_SPREADSHEET_ID (the ID from the spreadsheet URL), GSHEETS_FINANCIAL_RANGE (e.g. 'FinancialSummary!B2:B20'), GSHEETS_KPI_RANGE (e.g. 'KPITracker!C2:C15'). Named ranges are strongly preferred over cell addresses to survive sheet restructuring. Confirm range names with the Finance Lead before build.
Rate limits
Google Sheets API v4: 300 read requests/minute per project, 60 requests/minute per user. At current volume (one pull per planning cycle, 4 times/year), rate limiting is not a concern. No throttling required.
Constraints
The service account must be granted at least Viewer access to the spreadsheet. Data returned is always strings; numeric values must be cast in the orchestration layer before writing to Notion. Empty cells return an empty string, not null: the orchestration layer must handle blank-cell fallback logic.
// Input
GSHEETS_SPREADSHEET_ID + GSHEETS_FINANCIAL_RANGE
GET /v4/spreadsheets/{id}/values/{range}
// Output (raw response example)
{
  'range': 'FinancialSummary!B2:B20',
  'values': [['142500'], ['38200'], ['19400'], ...]
}
// Mapped output to orchestration layer
financial.revenue    = values[0][0]  // cast to float
financial.pipeline   = values[1][0]  // cast to float
financial.expenses   = values[2][0]  // cast to float
HubSpot

HubSpot provides pipeline and revenue data at the start of each planning cycle. The Planning Data Agent queries the Deals API to retrieve aggregate pipeline value and deal stage counts, which are written into the master Notion strategy page alongside the Google Sheets financial data.

Auth method
HubSpot Private App Token (Bearer token). Create a private app in HubSpot Settings > Integrations > Private Apps, grant the required scopes, copy the access token, and store as HUBSPOT_PRIVATE_APP_TOKEN in the credential store. Do not use OAuth 2.0 public app flow for this internal automation.
Required scopes
crm.objects.deals.read, crm.schemas.deals.read, crm.objects.contacts.read (if contact-level data is needed for pipeline attribution). Scopes are selected at private app creation time and cannot be changed without recreating the app.
Webhook / trigger setup
No webhook. The Planning Data Agent queries HubSpot on the same scheduled trigger as the Google Sheets pull: once per planning cycle initiation. If a future requirement needs real-time deal updates, HubSpot webhooks can be added (subscribe to deal.propertyChange events via the Webhooks API), but this is not required at current volume.
Required configuration
Store in credential store: HUBSPOT_PIPELINE_ID (the pipeline ID for the relevant sales pipeline, found in HubSpot Settings > Sales > Pipelines). Store HUBSPOT_DEAL_STAGE_IDS as a JSON map of stage name to stage ID (e.g. {"Proposal Sent": "123456", "Closed Won": "789012"}). Confirm exact pipeline and stage IDs with the owner before build; these vary per HubSpot account and must not be hardcoded.
Rate limits
HubSpot Starter: 100 API requests/10 seconds, 250,000 requests/day. At current volume (one cycle initiation 4 times/year, fetching 1 to 3 deal API pages), rate limiting is not a concern. No throttling required.
Constraints
HubSpot deal amounts are stored in the 'amount' property as a string. Cast to float in the orchestration layer. Pagination is required if the pipeline contains more than 100 deals: use the 'after' cursor token from the paging object. The private app token does not expire but must be rotated if compromised; store rotation date in the credential store metadata.
// Input
GET /crm/v3/objects/deals
  ?properties=dealname,amount,dealstage,closedate,pipeline
  &filterGroups[0].filters[0].propertyName=pipeline
  &filterGroups[0].filters[0].operator=EQ
  &filterGroups[0].filters[0].value={HUBSPOT_PIPELINE_ID}
  Authorization: Bearer {HUBSPOT_PRIVATE_APP_TOKEN}
// Output (mapped)
hubspot.pipeline_total   = sum(deal.amount for deal in results)
hubspot.open_deals       = count(deal where stage != 'Closed Won')
hubspot.closed_won_value = sum(deal.amount where stage == 'Closed Won')
Slack

Slack is the notification and reporting channel for all outbound communications in the workflow: cycle kickoff messages, submission deadline reminders, plan distribution, weekly progress update requests, and the compiled weekly progress report to the leadership channel. Both agents use Slack. All channel IDs and user IDs are stored in the credential store.

Auth method
OAuth 2.0 Bot Token (xoxb- prefix). Create a Slack App at api.slack.com/apps, add the required Bot Token Scopes, install the app to the workspace, copy the Bot User OAuth Token, and store as SLACK_BOT_TOKEN in the credential store. The app must be invited to each channel it posts to.
Required scopes
chat:write (post messages to channels and DMs), chat:write.public (post to public channels without being a member, optional), im:write (open DM channels to users), users:read (look up user IDs by email), users:read.email (required with users:read to resolve email to Slack user ID), channels:read (list channels to validate channel IDs at startup).
Webhook / trigger setup
Slack is outbound-only in this workflow: the automation posts to Slack but does not receive Slack events. No incoming webhooks or event subscriptions are required. If a future iteration captures Slack responses (e.g. button clicks to approve the plan directly in Slack), add the Interactivity and Shortcuts feature and store the signing secret as SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET for signature validation on incoming payloads.
Required configuration
Store in credential store: SLACK_BOT_TOKEN, SLACK_LEADERSHIP_CHANNEL_ID (the channel where the weekly progress report is posted, e.g. C0123456789), SLACK_DEPT_HEAD_USER_IDS (a JSON map of department name to Slack user ID, e.g. {"Finance": "U0123456", "Marketing": "U0789012"}). User IDs must be resolved from email addresses before build using the users.lookupByEmail API call. Never store display names; always store user IDs.
Rate limits
Slack Web API: Tier 3 methods (chat.postMessage): 50 requests/minute. At current volume (up to 15 department heads per cycle, plus 1 leadership channel post per week), peak is 15 to 16 messages per run, well within limits. No throttling required. If department head count grows beyond 40, implement a 1.5-second delay between chat.postMessage calls.
Constraints
chat.postMessage requires the bot to be a member of the target channel for private channels. For DMs, the bot must call conversations.open first to obtain the DM channel ID before posting. Message blocks must conform to the Block Kit schema; plain text fallback must be included in the 'text' field for notifications. Slack message length is capped at 3,000 characters per block; the weekly progress report must be designed to fit within this limit or split across multiple blocks.
// Input (kickoff DM to department head)
POST /api/chat.postMessage
  channel: {dm_channel_id}
  text: 'Planning cycle kickoff - please complete your goals by {deadline}'
  blocks: [ Section block with Notion page link button ]
// Input (leadership channel progress report)
POST /api/chat.postMessage
  channel: {SLACK_LEADERSHIP_CHANNEL_ID}
  text: 'Weekly Planning Progress Report - Week {n} of Q{q}'
  blocks: [ Header, Section per dept with completion %, Divider, Footer ]
// Output (API response, success)
{ 'ok': true, 'channel': 'C0123456789', 'ts': '1715000000.000100' }
// Output (API response, failure)
{ 'ok': false, 'error': 'channel_not_found' }  // -> trigger retry / alert

04Build stack and orchestration

Orchestration layout
Two discrete workflows: one per agent. Workflow 1 = Planning Data Agent (date-triggered, runs at cycle initiation). Workflow 2 = Progress Tracking Agent (cron-triggered, runs every Monday at 08:00 local time while a cycle is active). Both workflows share a single credential store. No inline credentials in any workflow node.
Agent 1 trigger mechanism
Scheduled date-based trigger. The orchestration platform evaluates the configured cycle start date (stored as CYCLE_START_DATE in the credential store) each day at 07:00. When the current date matches the cycle start date, the Planning Data Agent workflow fires. Trigger type: poll/schedule, not webhook.
Agent 2 trigger mechanism
Cron schedule: 0 8 * * 1 (every Monday at 08:00). The Progress Tracking Agent checks the CYCLE_ACTIVE flag in the credential store before proceeding. If the flag is false (no active planning cycle), the workflow exits without posting. This prevents spurious reports outside of active quarters.
Signature validation
No inbound webhooks are active in the current build. If Slack Interactivity is added in a future iteration, all incoming POST requests from Slack must be validated using HMAC-SHA256 against SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET before any payload is processed. The orchestration layer must reject any request where the computed signature does not match the x-slack-signature header.
Credential store structure
All secrets and environment-specific IDs are stored in the automation platform's native encrypted credential store. See code block below for full contents. No credential is written into a workflow node directly.
Inter-workflow data passing
The Planning Data Agent writes the CYCLE_ACTIVE flag and CYCLE_END_DATE to the credential store on successful run. The Progress Tracking Agent reads these values at runtime. No direct workflow-to-workflow data pipe is used.
All values shown as placeholders. Replace with real values before production run. Never commit credentials to version control.

05Error handling and retry logic

Every integration point in the workflow has a defined failure behaviour. Unhandled exceptions must never fail silently. All errors must be logged to the orchestration platform's execution log and, where the failure affects a user-facing output, must trigger an alert to the FullSpec monitoring endpoint or the designated owner notification channel.

Integration
Scenario
Required behaviour
Notion (template duplication)
API returns 429 Too Many Requests
Pause workflow for 2 seconds, retry up to 3 times with exponential backoff (2s, 4s, 8s). If all retries fail, log error and send alert to SLACK_LEADERSHIP_CHANNEL_ID with message 'Cycle kickoff delayed: Notion rate limit hit. FullSpec team has been notified.' Do not proceed to Slack kickoff messages until all pages are created.
Notion (template duplication)
Integration not shared with target database (403 Forbidden)
Do not retry. Log error immediately with the affected database ID. Post alert to the owner's DM via Slack: 'Planning cycle could not start: Notion integration is missing database access. Check sharing settings.' Halt workflow and await manual resolution.
Google Sheets (financial data pull)
Spreadsheet not found or access revoked (404 / 403)
Do not retry. Log error with spreadsheet ID. Post alert to owner DM: 'Financial data pull failed: Google Sheets access error. Cycle will proceed without financial data until resolved.' Continue workflow but mark financial fields in Notion master page as 'Data unavailable - manual entry required'.
Google Sheets (financial data pull)
Named range returns empty values (blank cells)
Substitute null for empty cells. Log a warning (not an error) listing which fields are blank. Write 'No data' into the corresponding Notion fields. Do not halt the workflow. Include a note in the Slack kickoff message to the owner: 'Some financial fields could not be populated automatically.'
HubSpot (deal data pull)
Private app token expired or invalid (401 Unauthorized)
Do not retry. Log error. Post alert to owner DM: 'HubSpot connection failed: API token is invalid. Pipeline data will not be included in this cycle. Contact support@gofullspec.com.' Continue workflow without HubSpot data; mark Notion pipeline fields as 'Data unavailable'.
HubSpot (deal data pull)
Pagination cursor not returned (unexpected response shape)
Log warning. Process only the first page of results (up to 100 deals). Write a note into the Notion master page: 'Pipeline total may be incomplete: pagination error during data pull.' Do not halt workflow. Flag for manual review.
Slack (kickoff DM to department head)
User ID not found or user has left workspace (channel_not_found / user_not_found)
Skip the unresolvable user. Log the failed user ID and department name. Post a summary alert to SLACK_LEADERSHIP_CHANNEL_ID: 'Kickoff message could not be delivered to [Department]. Slack user ID may be outdated. Update SLACK_DEPT_HEAD_USER_IDS in the credential store.' Continue sending to all other department heads.
Slack (weekly progress report post)
Bot not a member of leadership channel (not_in_channel)
Do not retry message delivery. Log error. Send fallback alert to owner DM: 'Weekly progress report could not be posted to the leadership channel. Bot must be invited to the channel. Report data is preserved in Notion.' Do not discard report data.
Slack (deadline reminder)
Slack API rate limit hit (429) during bulk DM send
Pause for the duration specified in the Retry-After response header. Resume sending from the next unsent department head. Do not resend to departments already successfully messaged. Log the pause and resume point.
Notion (master page consolidation)
One or more department submission pages return empty Goals field
Include the department in the master page with a placeholder block: '[Department name]: No goals submitted as of consolidation. Flagged for owner review.' Do not skip the department silently. Set the master page property 'Incomplete_Submissions' to a comma-separated list of affected departments.
Notion (progress status read, Agent 2)
Goal status database query returns zero results (no pages found)
Do not post a progress report. Log error: 'No goal pages found in NOTION_GOAL_STATUS_DB_ID. Verify database ID and integration sharing.' Post alert to owner DM. Do not post a blank or misleading report to the leadership channel.
Orchestration layer (any workflow)
Unhandled exception or unexpected runtime error
Catch all unhandled exceptions at the workflow level. Log full stack trace to the platform execution log. Post alert to owner DM and to SLACK_LEADERSHIP_CHANNEL_ID: 'An unexpected error occurred in the Strategic Planning Workflow. The FullSpec team has been notified. Contact support@gofullspec.com if the issue persists.' Never allow a workflow to fail silently or exit without a log entry.
Retry policy summary: use exponential backoff (base 2 seconds, maximum 3 attempts) for transient API errors (429, 500, 503). For permanent errors (401, 403, 404), do not retry: log, alert, and degrade gracefully. All alerting uses Slack DM to the owner as the fallback channel. If the Slack connection itself fails, the error must be written to the orchestration platform's execution log and surfaced in the platform's native monitoring dashboard. Contact support@gofullspec.com for escalation.
