What is Notion?
Notion is a flexible workspace for building docs, wikis, and databases—often used for knowledge bases, project tracking, and lightweight CRM-style workflows.
With Konnectify, you can automate Notion operations like monitoring newly created or updated pages, adding items to databases, and appending structured content blocks—so your documentation and trackers stay in sync with the rest of your tools.
New to Notion?
Create a workspace, share pages and databases, and generate an integration for connected workflows.

What you can automate
•
Track new pages created across your workspace

•
Add new items to a Notion database with mapped properties
•
Create pages and sub-pages under existing pages

•
Add comments and retrieve user/comment details for audit trails
API & Authentication
Authentication: OAuth 2.0 authorization
Konnectify connects to Notion using OAuth 2.0. During setup, you’ll be redirected to Notion to approve access, then returned to Konnectify. This avoids sharing your Notion password with Konnectify and lets you revoke access at any time from Notion.
Scopes & capabilities
This connector requests the following Notion OAuth scopes: read, write, and offline_access. This enables Konnectify workflows to:
- Read pages, databases (data sources), and their metadata
- Create and update pages and database items
- Append blocks (rich content) to pages
- Create and retrieve comments
- Fetch user details from the workspace
- Maintain long-lived connections for scheduled/polling workflows (offline access)
Note on permissions, plan restrictions, and rate limits
Notion API access depends on how your workspace admin policies are configured and which pages/databases the integration has been explicitly shared with.
Notion also enforces API rate limits; if you run high-frequency polling or bulk updates, expect occasional throttling and retries.

How to connect Notion to Konnectify
Prerequisites
- A Notion account with access to the pages/databases you want to automate
- A Notion integration created/available for OAuth authorization (workspace policies may require admin approval)
- A Konnectify account and permission to create/edit workflows
- For database automations: the target database must be shared with the integration
Add Notion to a Workflow
- Create a new workflow in Konnectify (or open an existing one).
- Select Notion as the trigger app or as an action step.
Authorize via OAuth 2.0
- Click Connect when prompted.
- Sign in to Notion and approve access for the requested scopes.
- Confirm you are connecting the correct workspace.
Configure the Trigger or Action
- Select the relevant page/database identifiers and any required fields.
- Map data from prior steps to Notion properties (for database items) or page content (for blocks).
Important
If an action can’t find a database/page, ensure the Notion integration has been shared with that database/page in Notion.
Notion permissions are the most common cause of “not found” results.
Test the Workflow
- Run a test to verify the trigger returns data (or the action writes to Notion successfully).
- Confirm property mappings and content formatting in Notion.
Activate the Workflow
- Turn on the workflow.
- For polling triggers, keep an eye on the first few runs to confirm timing and expected results.
Triggers
6
Notion triggers in Konnectify are polling triggers. They periodically check Notion for newly created or recently updated content (based on timestamps like
created_time and
last_edited_time).
Pages & Data Sources
4 triggers
New Added Page
Polls for newly created pages across Notion data sources using the created_time field.
Updated Page
Polls for recently updated pages across Notion data sources using the last_edited_time field.
New Added Data Source
Polls for newly created pages in the selected Notion Data Source using the created_time field.
Updated Data Source
Polls for updated pages in the selected Notion Data Source using the last_edited_time field.
Database Items
2 triggers
New Data Source Item
Polls for newly created pages inside a selected Notion Database using created_time.
Updated Data Source Item
Polls for pages that were updated in the selected Notion Data Source using last_edited_time.
Actions
10
Use Notion actions to create pages and database items, find records by ID or title, append structured blocks, add comments, and manage page lifecycle (archive).
Pages
4 actions
Create Page
Creates a new page in an existing page. You can specify whether this page should be created inside a database (as an item) or as a sub-page under another existing page.
Find Page
Finds a single page. You can either retrieve a page directly by its unique ID or search for a page by its title.
Archive Page
Sets the 'archived' status of a specific page to true, effectively archiving it.
Add Blogs to Page
Creates selected block types (e.g., headings, lists, to-dos) as children under an existing Notion page. Dynamically builds input fields based on selected block types.
Databases & Database Items
4 actions
Add Database Item
Adds a new item (which is a page) to a selected Notion database, populating its properties.
Find Data source Item (Page)
Finds and retrieves a complete data sources item (which is a page) using the Page ID.
Find Data Source
Finds and retrieves a complete database object using either the Database ID or a (partial) title search.
Find Comment
Fetches the complete details of a single comment in Notion using the provided Comment ID.
Comments & Users
2 actions
Add Comment
Adds a new comment to a specified Notion page or discussion thread.
Find User
Fetches the full details of a single user (person or bot) from the workspace given their unique User ID.
Popular automations
Log new pages into a tracking database
When a new page is created, automatically create a related database item (page) and store metadata for reporting and governance.
New Added Page
→
Add Database Item
Append a structured changelog block on updates
When a page is edited, append a heading/list/to-do section to capture a simple changelog or review checklist.
Updated Page
→
Add Blogs to Page
Auto-comment on newly created database items
When a new database item is created, add a comment to assign a reviewer, capture next steps, or request missing fields.
New Data Source Item
→
Add Comment
Archive a page after verification
When a specific data source page gets updated (e.g., status marked “Deprecated”), locate the page and archive it automatically.

FAQ
How does Konnectify authenticate with Notion?
This integration uses OAuth 2.0. You authorize Konnectify from Notion, and Notion issues tokens that allow the workflow to read/write data based on approved scopes. You can revoke access from Notion at any time.
Which Notion plans are supported?
Konnectify works with Notion workspaces that allow API integrations. Availability can depend on workspace settings and admin controls. If authorization or access fails, confirm your workspace allows integrations and that the target pages/databases are shared with the integration.
Are Notion triggers instant (webhooks) or polling?
All triggers in this version are polling triggers. Konnectify periodically checks Notion for new/updated records using time fields like created_time and last_edited_time.
How do I prevent duplicates in Notion?
This connector does not include a dedicated “upsert” action. To avoid duplicates, use a Find step first (for example, Find Page by title or Find Data source Item (Page) by Page ID) and only run Add Database Item or Create Page when no match is found.
How does Konnectify handle Notion API rate limits?
If Notion responds with throttling, Konnectify may retry requests depending on workflow settings and system behavior. For high-volume workflows, reduce polling frequency, limit unnecessary “find” calls, and avoid appending large numbers of blocks in a tight loop.
Can I connect multiple Notion workspaces/accounts?
Yes. Create multiple Notion connections in Konnectify—each authorized to a different Notion workspace or user context. Then select the correct connection per workflow step.
Why can’t my workflow find a database or page that exists?
In Notion, integrations can only access content they’ve been explicitly shared with. Open the target page or database, click Share, and invite/enable the integration. After sharing, retry the action (for example, Find Data Source or Find Page).
