This project provides an official MCP (Model Communication Protocol) server for the Notion API, enabling AI models to interact with Notion workspaces. It's designed for developers and AI researchers looking to integrate Notion data and functionality into AI-driven applications, offering a structured way for LLMs to read, search, and create content within Notion.

How It Works

The server acts as a bridge between AI models and the Notion API. It translates natural language instructions into specific Notion API calls, such as searching for pages, retrieving content, or creating new pages. This is achieved by parsing user prompts and mapping them to relevant API endpoints, facilitating seamless data exchange and workflow automation.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Configure your client (e.g., Cursor, Claude Desktop) with a mcp.json file pointing to the server.
• Prerequisites: A Notion integration token with appropriate permissions (read-only recommended for security).
• Setup: Requires creating a Notion integration and configuring the client's mcp.json file.
• Documentation: Notion API integrations: https://www.notion.so/profile/integrations

Highlighted Details

• Supports reading, searching, and creating Notion content via AI prompts.
• Provides examples for commenting on pages and adding new pages.
• Offers Docker options for easier deployment and configuration.
• Allows referencing content by ID for precise interactions.

Maintenance & Community

This is the official server from Notion. Further community or roadmap details are not explicitly provided in the README.

Licensing & Compatibility

The README does not specify a license. Compatibility for commercial use or closed-source linking is not detailed.

Limitations & Caveats

The project explicitly states that while it limits the scope of exposed Notion API features (e.g., no database deletion), there is a non-zero risk to workspace data when exposing it to LLMs. Users are advised to configure integration capabilities carefully, such as setting up read-only access.
