What can this MCP do?

notion-create-comment

Add a comment to a page or specific content. Creates a new comment. Provide `page_id` to identify the page, then choose ONE targeting mode: - `page_id` alone: Page-level comment on the entire page - `page_id` + `selection_with_ellipsis`: Comment on specific block content - `discussion_id`: Reply to an existing discussion thread (page_id is still required) For content targeting, use `selection_with_ellipsis` with ~10 chars from start and end: "# Section Ti...tle content" <example description="Page-level comment"> {"page_id": "uuid", "rich_text": [{"text": {"content": "Comment"}}]} </example> <example description="Comment on specific content"> {"page_id": "uuid", "selection_with_ellipsis": "# Meeting No...es heading", "rich_text": [{"text": {"content": "Comment on this section"}}]} </example> <example description="Reply to discussion"> {"page_id": "uuid", "discussion_id": "discussion://pageId/blockId/discussionId", "rich_text": [{"text": {"content": "Reply"}}]} </example>

notion-create-database

Creates a new Notion database using SQL DDL syntax. If no title property provided, "Name" is auto-added. Returns Markdown with schema, SQLite definition, and data source ID in <data-source> tag for use with update_data_source and query_data_sources tools. The schema param accepts a CREATE TABLE statement defining columns. Type syntax: - Simple: TITLE, RICH_TEXT, DATE, PEOPLE, CHECKBOX, URL, EMAIL, PHONE_NUMBER, STATUS, FILES - SELECT('opt':color, ...) / MULTI_SELECT('opt':color, ...) - NUMBER [FORMAT 'dollar'] / FORMULA('expression') - RELATION('data_source_id') — one-way relation - RELATION('data_source_id', DUAL) — two-way relation - RELATION('data_source_id', DUAL 'synced_name') — two-way with synced property name - RELATION('data_source_id', DUAL 'synced_name' 'synced_id') — two-way with synced name and ID (for self-relations) - ROLLUP('rel_prop', 'target_prop', 'function') - UNIQUE_ID [PREFIX 'X'] / CREATED_TIME / LAST_EDITED_TIME - Any column: COMMENT 'description text' Colors: default, gray, brown, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, red <example description="Minimal">{"schema": "CREATE TABLE ("Name" TITLE)"}</example> <example description="Task DB">{"title": "Tasks", "schema": "CREATE TABLE ("Task Name" TITLE, "Status" SELECT('To Do':red, 'Done':green), "Due Date" DATE)"}</example> <example description="With parent and options">{"parent": {"page_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd"}, "title": "Projects", "schema": "CREATE TABLE ("Name" TITLE, "Budget" NUMBER FORMAT 'dollar', "Tags" MULTI_SELECT('eng':blue, 'design':pink), "Task ID" UNIQUE_ID PREFIX 'PRJ')"}</example> <example description="Self-relation (two-step: create database first, then use its data source ID with update_data_source to add self-relations)">{"title": "Tasks", "schema": "CREATE TABLE ("Name" TITLE, "Parent" RELATION('ds_id', DUAL 'Children' 'children'), "Children" RELATION('ds_id', DUAL 'Parent' 'parent'))"}</example>

notion-create-pages

## Overview Creates one or more Notion pages, with the specified properties and content. ## Parent All pages created with a single call to this tool will have the same parent. The parent can be a Notion page ("page_id") or data source ("data_source_id"). If the parent is omitted, the pages are created as standalone, workspace-level private pages, and the person that created them can organize them later as they see fit. If you have a database URL, ALWAYS pass it to the "fetch" tool first to get the schema and URLs of each data source under the database. You can't use the "database_id" parent type if the database has more than one data source, so you'll need to identify which "data_source_id" to use based on the situation and the results from the fetch tool (data source URLs look like collection://<data_source_id>). If you know the pages should be created under a data source, do NOT use the database ID or URL under the "page_id" parameter; "page_id" is only for regular, non-database pages. ## Content Notion page content is a string in Notion-flavored Markdown format. Don't include the page title at the top of the page's content. Only include it under "properties". **IMPORTANT**: For the complete Markdown specification, always first fetch the MCP resource at `notion://docs/enhanced-markdown-spec`. Do NOT guess or hallucinate Markdown syntax. This spec is also applicable to other tools like update-page and fetch. ## Properties Notion page properties are a JSON map of property names to SQLite values. When creating pages in a database: - Use the correct property names from the data source schema shown in the fetch tool results. - Always include a title property. Data sources always have exactly one title property, but it may not be named "title", so, again, rely on the fetched data source schema. For pages outside of a database: - The only allowed property is "title", which is the title of the page in inline markdown format. Always include a "title" property. **IMPORTANT**: Some property types require expanded formats: - Date properties: Split into "date:{property}:start", "date:{property}:end" (optional), and "date:{property}:is_datetime" (0 or 1) - Place properties: Split into "place:{property}:name", "place:{property}:address", "place:{property}:latitude", "place:{property}:longitude", and "place:{property}:google_place_id" (optional) - Number properties: Use JavaScript numbers (not strings) - Checkbox properties: Use "__YES__" for checked, "__NO__" for unchecked **Special property naming**: Properties named "id" or "url" (case insensitive) must be prefixed with "userDefined:" (e.g., "userDefined:URL", "userDefined:id") ## Templates When creating a page in a database, you can apply a template to pre-populate it with content and property values. Use the "fetch" tool on a database to see available templates in the <templates> section of each data source. When using a template: - Pass the template's ID as "template_id" in the page object. - Do NOT include "content" when using a template, as the template provides it. - You can still set "properties" alongside the template to override template defaults. - Template application is asynchronous. The page is created immediately but starts blank; the template content will appear shortly after. ## Examples <example description="Create a page from a database template"> { "parent": {"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd"}, "pages": [ { "template_id": "a5da15f6-b853-455d-8827-f906fb52db2b", "properties": { "Task Name": "New urgent bug" } } ] } </example> <example description="Create a standalone page with a title and content"> { "pages": [ { "properties": {"title": "Page title"}, "content": "# Section 1 {color="blue"} Section 1 content <details> <summary>Toggle block</summary> Hidden content inside toggle </details>" } ] } </example> <example description="Create a page under a database's data source"> { "parent": {"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd"}, "pages": [ { "properties": { "Task Name": "Task 123", "Status": "In Progress", "Priority": 5, "Is Complete": "__YES__", "date:Due Date:start": "2024-12-25", "date:Due Date:is_datetime": 0 } } ] } </example> <example description="Create a page with an existing page as a parent"> { "parent": {"page_id": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890"}, "pages": [ { "properties": {"title": "Page title"}, "content": "# Section 1 Section 1 content # Section 2 Section 2 content" } ] } </example>

notion-duplicate-page

Duplicate a Notion page. The page must be within the current workspace, and you must have permission to access it. The duplication completes asynchronously, so do not rely on the new page identified by the returned ID or URL to be populated immediately. Let the user know that the duplication is in progress and that they can check back later using the 'fetch' tool or by clicking the returned URL and viewing it in the Notion app.

notion-fetch

Retrieves details about a Notion entity (page, database, or data source) by URL or ID. Provide URL or ID in `id` parameter. Make multiple calls to fetch multiple entities. Pages use enhanced Markdown format. For the complete specification, fetch the MCP resource at `notion://docs/enhanced-markdown-spec`. Databases return all data sources (collections). Each data source has a unique ID shown in `<data-source url="collection://...">` tags. You can pass a data source ID directly to this tool to fetch details about that specific data source, including its schema and properties. Use data source IDs with update_data_source and query_data_sources tools. Multi-source databases (e.g., with linked sources) will show multiple data sources. Set `include_discussions` to true to see discussion counts and inline discussion markers that correlate with the `get_comments` tool. The page output will include a `<page-discussions>` summary tag with discussion count, preview snippets, and `discussion://` URLs that match the discussion IDs returned by `get_comments`. <example>{"id": "https://notion.so/workspace/Page-a1b2c3d4e5f67890"}</example> <example>{"id": "12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890abcdef"}</example> <example>{"id": "https://myspace.notion.site/Page-Title-abc123def456"}</example> <example>{"id": "page-uuid", "include_discussions": true}</example> <example>{"id": "collection://12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890abcdef"}</example>

notion-get-comments

Get comments and discussions from a Notion page. Returns discussions with full comment content in XML format. By default, returns page-level discussions only. Tip: Use the `fetch` tool with `include_discussions: true` first to see where discussions are anchored in the page content, then use this tool to retrieve full discussion threads. The `discussion://` URLs in the fetch output match the discussion IDs returned here. Parameters: - `include_all_blocks`: Include discussions on child blocks (default: false) - `include_resolved`: Include resolved discussions (default: false) - `discussion_id`: Fetch a specific discussion by ID or URL <example>{"page_id": "page-uuid"}</example> <example>{"page_id": "page-uuid", "include_all_blocks": true}</example> <example>{"page_id": "page-uuid", "discussion_id": "discussion://pageId/blockId/discussionId"}</example>

notion-get-teams

Retrieves a list of teams (teamspaces) in the current workspace. Shows which teams exist, user membership status, IDs, names, and roles. Teams are returned split by membership status and limited to a maximum of 10 results. <examples> 1. List all teams (up to the limit of each type): {} 2. Search for teams by name: {"query": "engineering"} 3. Find a specific team: {"query": "Product Design"} </examples>

notion-get-users

Retrieves a list of users in the current workspace. Shows workspace members and guests with their IDs, names, emails (if available), and types (person or bot). Supports cursor-based pagination to iterate through all users in the workspace. <examples> 1. List all users (first page): {} 2. Search for users by name or email: {"query": "john"} 3. Get next page of results: {"start_cursor": "abc123"} 4. Set custom page size: {"page_size": 20} 5. Fetch a specific user by ID: {"user_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000000"} 6. Fetch the current user: {"user_id": "self"} </examples>

notion-move-pages

Move one or more Notion pages or databases to a new parent.

notion-search

Perform a search over: - "internal": Semantic search over Notion workspace and connected sources (Slack, Google Drive, Github, Jira, Microsoft Teams, Sharepoint, OneDrive, Linear). Supports filtering by creation date and creator. - "user": Search for users by name or email. Auto-selects AI search (with connected sources) or workspace search (workspace-only, faster) based on user's access to Notion AI. Use content_search_mode to override. Use "fetch" tool for full page/database contents after getting search results. To search within a database: First fetch the database to get the data source URL (collection://...) from <data-source url="..."> tags, then use that as data_source_url. For multi-source databases, match by view ID (?v=...) in URL or search all sources separately. Don't combine database URL/ID with collection:// prefix for data_source_url. Don't use database URL as page_url. <example description="Search with date range filter (only documents created in 2024)"> { "query": "quarterly revenue report", "query_type": "internal", "filters": { "created_date_range": { "start_date": "2024-01-01", "end_date": "2025-01-01" } } } </example> <example description="Teamspace + creator filter"> {"query": "project updates", "query_type": "internal", "teamspace_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "filters": {"created_by_user_ids": ["a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890"]}} </example> <example description="Database with date + creator filters"> {"query": "design review", "data_source_url": "collection://f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "filters": {"created_date_range": {"start_date": "2024-10-01"}, "created_by_user_ids": ["a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890", "b2c3d4e5-f6a7-8901-bcde-f12345678901"]}} </example> <example description="User search"> {"query": "john@example.com", "query_type": "user"} </example>

notion-update-data-source

Update a Notion data source's schema, title, or attributes using SQL DDL statements. Returns Markdown showing updated structure and schema. Accepts a data source ID (collection ID from fetch response's <data-source> tag) or a single-source database ID. Multi-source databases require the specific data source ID. The statements param accepts semicolon-separated DDL statements: - ADD COLUMN "Name" <type> - add a new property - DROP COLUMN "Name" - remove a property - RENAME COLUMN "Old" TO "New" - rename a property - ALTER COLUMN "Name" SET <type> - change type/options Same type syntax as create_database. Key types: - SELECT('opt':color, ...) / MULTI_SELECT('opt':color, ...) - NUMBER [FORMAT 'dollar'] / FORMULA('expression') - RELATION('ds_id') / RELATION('ds_id', DUAL) / RELATION('ds_id', DUAL 'synced_name' 'synced_id') - ROLLUP('rel_prop', 'target_prop', 'function') / UNIQUE_ID [PREFIX 'X'] - Simple: TITLE, RICH_TEXT, DATE, PEOPLE, CHECKBOX, URL, EMAIL, PHONE_NUMBER, STATUS, FILES <example description="Add properties">{"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "statements": "ADD COLUMN "Priority" SELECT('High':red, 'Medium':yellow, 'Low':green); ADD COLUMN "Due Date" DATE"}</example> <example description="Rename property">{"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "statements": "RENAME COLUMN "Status" TO "Project Status""}</example> <example description="Remove property">{"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "statements": "DROP COLUMN "Old Property""}</example> <example description="Add self-relation">{"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "statements": "ADD COLUMN "Parent" RELATION('f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd', DUAL 'Children' 'children'); ADD COLUMN "Children" RELATION('f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd', DUAL 'Parent' 'parent')"}</example> <example description="Update title">{"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "title": "Project Tracker 2024"}</example> <example description="Trash data source">{"data_source_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "in_trash": true}</example> Notes: Cannot delete/create title properties. Max one unique_id property. Cannot update synced databases. Use "fetch" first to see current schema and get the data source ID from <data-source url="collection://..."> tags.

notion-update-page

## Overview Update a Notion page's properties or content. ## Properties Notion page properties are a JSON map of property names to SQLite values. For pages in a database: - ALWAYS use the "fetch" tool first to get the data source schema and the exact property names. - Provide a non-null value to update a property's value. - Omitted properties are left unchanged. **IMPORTANT**: Some property types require expanded formats: - Date properties: Split into "date:{property}:start", "date:{property}:end" (optional), and "date:{property}:is_datetime" (0 or 1) - Place properties: Split into "place:{property}:name", "place:{property}:address", "place:{property}:latitude", "place:{property}:longitude", and "place:{property}:google_place_id" (optional) - Number properties: Use JavaScript numbers (not strings) - Checkbox properties: Use "__YES__" for checked, "__NO__" for unchecked **Special property naming**: Properties named "id" or "url" (case insensitive) must be prefixed with "userDefined:" (e.g., "userDefined:URL", "userDefined:id") For pages outside of a database: - The only allowed property is "title", which is the title of the page in inline markdown format. ## Content Notion page content is a string in Notion-flavored Markdown format. **IMPORTANT**: For the complete Markdown specification, first fetch the MCP resource at `notion://docs/enhanced-markdown-spec`. Do NOT guess or hallucinate Markdown syntax. Before updating a page's content with this tool, use the "fetch" tool first to get the existing content to find out the Markdown snippets to use in the "replace_content_range" or "insert_content_after" commands. ### Preserving Child Pages and Databases When using "replace_content" or "replace_content_range", the operation will check if any child pages or databases would be deleted. If so, it will fail with an error listing the affected items. To preserve child pages/databases, include them in new_str using `<page url="...">` or `<database url="...">` tags. Get the exact URLs from the "fetch" tool output. **CRITICAL**: To intentionally delete child content: if the call failed with validation and requires `allow_deleting_content` to be true, DO NOT automatically assume the content should be deleted. ALWAYS show the list of pages to be deleted and ask for user confirmation before proceeding. ## Examples <example description="Update page properties"> { "page_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "command": "update_properties", "properties": { "title": "New Page Title", "status": "In Progress", "priority": 5, "checkbox": "__YES__", "date:deadline:start": "2024-12-25", "date:deadline:is_datetime": 0, "place:office:name": "HQ", "place:office:latitude": 37.7749, "place:office:longitude": -122.4194 } } </example> <example description="Replace the entire content of a page"> { "page_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "command": "replace_content", "new_str": "# New Section Updated content goes here" } </example> <example description="Replace specific content in a page"> { "page_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "command": "replace_content_range", "selection_with_ellipsis": "# Old Section...end of section", "new_str": "# New Section Updated content goes here" } </example> <example description="Insert content after specific text"> { "page_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "command": "insert_content_after", "selection_with_ellipsis": "## Previous section...", "new_str": " ## New Section Content to insert goes here" } </example> **Note**: For selection_with_ellipsis, provide only the first ~10 characters, an ellipsis, and the last ~10 characters. Ensure the selection is unique; use longer snippets if needed to avoid ambiguity. ## Templates You can apply a template to an existing page using the "apply_template" command. The template content is appended to the page asynchronously. Get template IDs from the <templates> section in the fetch tool results for a database, or use any page ID as a template. <example description="Apply a template to an existing page"> { "page_id": "f336d0bc-b841-465b-8045-024475c079dd", "command": "apply_template", "template_id": "a5da15f6-b853-455d-8827-f906fb52db2b" } </example>
