Integrating Notion with WeWeb
Integrating Notion with WeWeb is straightforward:
Get your Notion API access token from your Notion connection settings
Add Notion as an integration in WeWeb and create a connection using the token
Add Notion as a data source when you want to access database data in your app
Create or open a backend workflow when you want to interact with Notion through actions
Choose the database, page, block, or user action you need
Provide the relevant Notion resource IDs and data required by the action
Best practices
Use the Notion data source when you primarily need to retrieve and display database data in your app
Use backend workflow actions when you need to create, update, archive, or otherwise interact with Notion resources
Keep the database, page, and block IDs you need accessible when configuring workflows
Use Retrieve page for page-level information and List block children for the content contained within the page
Keep your Notion database structure consistent when relying on it as an application data source
Test create and update operations with representative Notion content before using them in production workflows
Make sure the Notion connection has access to the resources your WeWeb app needs to interact with
Limitations
Actions that target specific Notion resources require the relevant database, page, block, or user identifiers
Retrieving a page does not by itself return all of the content contained inside it; use List block children to access its blocks
Data source view configuration is currently exposed as JSON rather than through a dedicated visual configuration interface
