7### Task endpoints use /controllers to get and save data
8
9In order to keep the API easy to look and work with, the routes in /tasks handle routing but do not get data from or save data to Notion. The functions that connect to Notion live in the /controllers directory, and are _called_ from the endpoints in /tasks.
10
11### Naming convention for routes and controllers
25   Note that the export in the controller follows the same convention; it's also called `setDemoURL`.
26
271. Once the controller is imported, pass data to the exported function so that it can do its thing:
28
29   ```
31   ```
32
33   Note the function call is the exported function in the import object at the top of the route; i.e., `{ setDemoURL }`. The `setDemoURL.ts` controller exports it like this:
34
35   ```
36   // /controllers/setDemoURL.ts
37   export async function setDemoURL(data: any) {
38     try {
39       ...

1This directory has crons that extract data from Notion and save that data to blob storage in val.town. Blob storage functions like a cache.
