# Notion

> Give your workflows access to the Notion pages that you select.

The Notion integration lets your workflows search Notion, read a page, and query a database.

Notion access works differently from the other providers, and the difference matters. Notion shows no permission list. You select the pages at the moment you connect, and the connection reads those pages only.

<Warning>
  A page that you do not select stays invisible to Current. A search finds nothing in it, and the agent reports no error about it. Select every page that your workflows need.
</Warning>

## Before you start

You need two things:

* The **admin** role in the Current workspace.
* A Notion account that shares the pages your workflows use.

Make a list of the pages and the databases that your workflows read. You select them in one step, in a picker, and a prepared list makes that step short.

## Install

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Integrations page">
    In the portal, go to **Settings** > **Integrations**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Notion">
    Find the **Notion** row. Click **Connect**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the Notion workspace name">
    Notion shows the access page. At the top of that page, Notion names the workspace that gives the access. Change it if it is not correct.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select the pages">
    Click **Select pages**. Select each page and each database that your workflows read.

    Notion includes the child pages of a page that you select. Select a parent page to give access to a complete section.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Allow the access">
    Click **Allow access**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the connection">
    The browser comes back to the **Integrations** page.

    <Check>
      The **Notion** row shows the green **Connected** badge, with the name of your Notion workspace.
    </Check>
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Add a page after the installation

You connect nothing again to add a page. Share the page with the integration in Notion:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the page in Notion">
    Open the page or the database that Current must read.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the connections menu">
    Click the **···** menu at the top right of the page. Click **Connections**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add Current">
    Click **Add connections** and select **Current**. Confirm.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Current reads the page immediately. Remove the page the same way to remove the access.

<Note>
  Repeat this for each new page. Notion gives access page by page, so a page that your team makes next month starts invisible to Current.
</Note>

## Verify the installation

Open a workflow that reads Notion and click **Run now**. Read the run history in the action drawer.

<Check>
  A run that finds a page confirms the connection.
</Check>

If a search finds nothing, the page is not shared with the integration. Add it with the procedure above.

## Remove the integration

Go to **Settings** > **Integrations**. Click **Disconnect** on the **Notion** row, then confirm.

A disconnection removes the token from Current. It cancels nothing at Notion. To remove the integration at Notion as well, a Notion owner opens **Settings** > **Connections** in Notion and removes **Current**.

## Questions you may have

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="A search finds nothing, and the page exists.">
    The page is not shared with the integration. This is the cause in almost every case.

    Open the page in Notion and add the **Current** connection. See [Add a page after the installation](#add-a-page-after-the-installation).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Current reads an old page and not a new one.">
    Notion gives access page by page. A new page receives no access from the connection.

    Share each new page with the procedure above. To avoid this work, share one parent page and make your new pages inside it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why does Notion show no permission list?">
    Notion controls the access with the page selection instead of a permission list. The pages that you select are the complete access of the connection.
