Stop context-switching between your IDE and Notion. When agents connect to Notion, they can search your workspace, read documentation, and pull in project context directly from conversations.

​
What agents can do with Notion

Once connected, agents can:
  • Search your workspace: Find pages, databases, and documents across your Notion workspace.
  • Read documentation: Access design docs, runbooks, and technical specs without leaving your conversation.
  • Reference project context: Pull in requirements, meeting notes, and decisions relevant to your current task.
  • Add content: Create and update pages with findings, notes, or documentation.

​
Example workflows

"Search Notion for the API design doc for the payments service"

"Find the onboarding runbook in Notion"

"What does the Notion page about our database migration plan say?"

"Create a Notion page summarizing the changes I made to the auth module"

​
Connect Notion

​
Step 1: Organization setup

An admin needs to enable Notion for your organization first.
  1. Go to Organization Settings > Integrations
  2. Find Notion and click Enable
  3. Configure default workspace settings if needed
Organization integration settings

​
Step 2: Authenticate your account

Once enabled, connect your personal Notion account:
  1. Go to User Settings > Integrations
  2. Click Connect next to Notion
  3. Authorize Ona to access your Notion workspace
  4. Select which pages and databases to share
User authentication for Notion

​
Verify it works

Start a conversation with an agent and try: 
Search Notion for our project documentation
If you see results from your workspace, you’re connected. If not, verify both organization enablement and your personal authentication are complete.

​
Tips for effective use

Be specific about pages: If you have a large workspace, give the agent specific page or database names: “Find the Q1 planning page in the Engineering space.” Share the right pages: During Notion authorization, you select which pages the integration can access. Make sure to share the pages your agents will need. Use with AGENTS.md: Add references to key Notion pages in AGENTS.md so agents know where to find your team’s documentation and conventions.

​
Troubleshooting

​
”No results found”

Notion’s authorization model requires you to explicitly select which pages to share during the OAuth flow. If the agent can’t find a page, disconnect and reconnect, ensuring you share the relevant pages.

​
Cannot access a specific page

Pages must be explicitly shared with the integration during authorization. You can update your page selection by disconnecting and reconnecting the integration.
