## Overview

The Notion connector syncs **pages**, **databases**, and **users** from your Notion workspace into PipesHub using **OAuth 2.0** and a **public connection** you register in Notion’s developer experience.

### What gets synced

| Entity        | Description                                                             |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Pages**     | Notion pages you grant during install (and their content)               |
| **Databases** | Database properties and rows in scope                                   |
| **Users**     | Workspace users (when the integration requests email-capable user info) |
| **Comments**  | Comments on shared pages, when enabled on the connection                |

### Authentication

In PipesHub the flow has three tabs: **Authenticate Instance** (Redirect URL + OAuth client credentials), **Authorize** (sign in to Notion and pick what to share), then **Configure Records** (sync strategy and indexing).

<Note>
  This connector matches people by **email**. Use the **same email** in PipesHub as in Notion so permissions and visible records line up.
</Note>

***

## Configuration Guide

You will create a **public connection** in Notion, copy the **Redirect URL** from PipesHub into that connection, then finish setup in PipesHub and run **Authorize**.

### How to configure and enable the Notion connector

#### Step 1: Open Connectors in PipesHub

1. Open your **user profile** menu (bottom of the left sidebar) → **Workspace Settings**.
2. Under **Workspace**, select **Connectors**.
3. Find **Notion** and click **+ Setup**.

<div className="text-center">

</div>

#### Step 2: Copy the Redirect URL

On **Authenticate Instance**, set **Instance name**, then copy the **Redirect URL** exactly. You will paste it into Notion in Step 4.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-redirect.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=6db64e8179f3993f9d12e29c7bfdffa9" alt="Notion Configuration — Redirect URL to register in Notion" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="765" height="899" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-redirect.png" />
</div>

#### Step 3: Open Notion developer connections

In Notion: **Settings & members** → **Features** → **Connections** → **Develop or manage connections**. In the developer area, open **Build** → **Public connections**.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-connections.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=32be63be8737f8bc53294b3944b814f2" alt="Notion Settings — Connections and Develop or manage connections" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="1730" height="969" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-connections.png" />
</div>

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-public-connections.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=caffc50db377e943cdc6f918f04070e9" alt="Notion developer — Public connections and Create a new connection" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="1693" height="808" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-public-connections.png" />
</div>

#### Step 4: Create the public connection

1. Click **Create a new connection**.
2. Fill **Connection name**, optional icon, **Development workspace**, and **Redirect URIs** — paste the **exact** Redirect URL from Step 2.
3. Choose **Installable in** (often **Any workspace** for internal rollout).
4. Click **Create**. When the success dialog appears, continue to **Configure connection settings**.

<div className="text-center">

</div>

#### Step 5: Capabilities and OAuth secrets

1. Under **Capabilities**, enable at least **Read content** and **Read comments**, and choose **Read user information including email addresses** so PipesHub can map users.
2. Open the **Authorization (OAuth)** section. Copy **OAuth Client ID** and **OAuth Client Secret** and confirm **Redirect URIs** still match PipesHub.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-scopes.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=6059d53e11156d69201991d3e940ca6c" alt="Notion connection — Capabilities and user email scope" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="1220" height="1009" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-scopes.png" />

</div>

#### Step 6: Finish Authenticate Instance in PipesHub

Return to **Notion Configuration** → **Authenticate Instance** if you navigated away. Paste **Client ID** and **Client Secret** from Step 5, confirm the Redirect URL, then click **Next →**.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-new.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=65670421ebdfcf26ea5662a427b176b5" alt="PipesHub Notion Configuration — OAuth credentials on Authenticate Instance" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="738" height="1088" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-new.png" />
</div>

#### Step 7: Authorize with Notion

1. On **Authorize**, click **Authenticate Notion to Proceed** and complete the browser flow.
2. Review permissions, choose **Select pages**, pick teamspaces/pages to share, then **Allow access**.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-authenticate.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=8590cea513c360fd2ed6f680136f68ba" alt="PipesHub Notion Configuration — Authorize tab before signing in" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="678" height="1086" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-authenticate.png" />
</div>

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-oauth.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=dcca1848fa30cce2d05e6b7bd06f75eb" alt="Notion — Connect and select pages for the integration" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="754" height="980" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-oauth.png" />
</div>

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-auth-filters.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=0d9200e11e1f4ab1da001ef6e975bcbc" alt="Notion — Choose pages and Allow access" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="753" height="969" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-auth-filters.png" />
</div>

On this Notion screen you **choose exactly which content the connector may access**: use **Search pages**, expand **Teamspaces** or **Private**, check only the pages and databases you want synced, or use **Deselect all** and select a smaller set. Whatever you include here is the scope Notion grants the integration **Configure Records** in PipesHub refines sync and indexing further, but it cannot access pages you never selected. When you are done, click **Allow access**.

When you see **Connected – you can continue to Configure records**, click **Continue to configuration →**.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-auth-done.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=d48850fc8ab222b5c049552468b09888" alt="PipesHub Notion Configuration — Authorization success" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="680" height="1085" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-auth-done.png" />
</div>

<Warning>
  **Authorize with the same email you use in PipesHub.** A different account can cause missing pages or permission issues.
</Warning>

#### Step 8: Configure Records and save

Set **Sync strategy** and **Sync interval**, optional **Manual indexing**, and indexing toggles (for example **Index Pages**, **Index Databases**). Add sync filters only if you need to narrow scope. Click **Save Configuration**.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-filters.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=e658009d0c7d92c1c8c2f76d227d36f9" alt="PipesHub Notion Configuration — Configure Records" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="677" height="1088" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-filters.png" />
</div>

#### Step 9: Start sync

When prompted, choose **Start Syncing Now** or **I'll do it later**. Use **Sync Enabled** and the sync actions on the instance card as needed.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-start-sync.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=499891115a082d22f0e798c27880b423" alt="Notion instance ready to sync confirmation" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="1140" height="804" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-start-sync.png" />
</div>

Open the instance **Overview** to watch totals, queues, and record types.

<div className="text-center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/pipeshub/tQl3NEs19kkklgN6/images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-stats.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=tQl3NEs19kkklgN6&q=85&s=d302c77f07b0e509b5a9ce4b87fcff31" alt="Notion connector instance Overview and record stats" className="block mx-auto w-11/12" width="1167" height="1083" data-path="images/connectors/notion/notion-connector-stats.png" />
</div>

Use **Re-authenticate with provider** on **Authorize** if tokens are rotated or access was revoked.

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Troubleshooting" icon="circle-exclamation">
    ### Common issues

    **Redirect URI mismatch**

    * The value in Notion must **exactly** match the Redirect URL shown in PipesHub (scheme, host, path, no stray spaces).

    **Invalid client / secret**

    * Regenerate the secret in Notion if needed and paste the new value into **Authenticate Instance**.

    **Missing pages after sync**

    * Re-run **Authorize** and expand page/teamspace selection; the connector only sees content you explicitly share.

    **Email / visibility**

    * Confirm the **Capabilities** user scope includes **email** and that users sign in to PipesHub with the same address as in Notion.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Data sync behavior

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Synchronization process" icon="sync">
    ### Initial sync

    * Imports pages and databases in the granted scope; duration depends on workspace size.

    ### Incremental sync

    * Runs on your **Sync interval** when using a scheduled strategy, fetching changes since the last successful run.
  </Accordion>

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Queries not returning results. What could be wrong?">
    1. **Email mismatch** — Use the same email in PipesHub as in Notion.
    2. **Scope** — Confirm the right pages were selected during **Authorize** and that indexing toggles match what you expect.
    3. **Still indexing** — Open **Workspace Settings** → **Connectors** → **Notion** and check **Overview** until queues complete.
