Notion

Overview

Notion is a cloud-based knowledge management platform used for note taking and project planning.

Prerequisites

Create the (internal) integration

  • Login to your Notion account through a web browser.
  • In the top-right corner, under the (...) menu, navigate to Connections > Develop Integration.

New integration

  • For Integration Name, enter a name for the integration.
  • For Associated workspace, select your Notion workspace.
  • Leave Type as Internal for now.
  • Click Save to continue. If successful, you should see a confirmation message - click Configure integration settings to proceed.

Integration success

  • You will now see an Internal Integration Secret (click the Show button to reveal it) - this value goes into the Notion connector in Bottle Rocket.

Integration secret

Add Notion connector

  • Click the Submit button to save the connector.

Provision access to parent notes

The Notion connector will allow Bottle Rocket to send notes; to do this, you will need to set up "parent" notes in Notion through which "child" notes can be added as children.

  • In the main Notion workspace, create a new page.

Add new note

  • Name them anything you like - the name of the note is not needed to set up the connector.
  • You can create as many parent notes as you think you may need with Bottle Rocket.

New notes added

  • Navigate back to the Bottle Rocket integration console.
  • From the top tab menu, select Access.
  • Select Edit access and select the parent notes you wish to provision for Bottle Rocket access.

Manage page access

  • Click the Save button when done.

Now, when you create a Notion workflow step, you can select the parent note you wish to append to as part of that workflow step.
