## Installation
```
npm install @notionhq/client
```
## Usage
> Use Notion's [Getting Started Guide](https://developers.notion.com/docs/getting-started) to get set up to use Notion's API.
Import and initialize a client using an **integration token** or an OAuth **access token**.
```js
const { Client } = require("@notionhq/client")
// Initializing a client
const notion = new Client({
auth: process.env.NOTION_TOKEN,
})
```
Make a request to any Notion API endpoint.
> See the complete list of endpoints in the [API reference](https://developers.notion.com/reference).
```js
;(async () => {
const listUsersResponse = await notion.users.list({})
})()
```
Each method returns a `Promise` which resolves the response.
```js
console.log(listUsersResponse)
```
```
{
results: [
{
object: 'user',
id: 'd40e767c-d7af-4b18-a86d-55c61f1e39a4',
type: 'person',
person: {
email: 'avo@example.org',
},
name: 'Avocado Lovelace',
avatar_url: 'https://secure.notion-static.com/e6a352a8-8381-44d0-a1dc-9ed80e62b53d.jpg',
},
...
]
}
```
Endpoint parameters are grouped into a single object. You don't need to remember which parameters go in the path, query, or body.
```js
const myPage = await notion.databases.query({
database_id: "897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af",
filter: {
property: "Landmark",
rich_text: {
contains: "Bridge",
},
},
})
```
### Handling errors
If the API returns an unsuccessful response, the returned `Promise` rejects with a `APIResponseError`.
The error contains properties from the response, and the most helpful is `code`. You can compare `code` to the values in the `APIErrorCode` object to avoid misspelling error codes.
```js
const { Client, APIErrorCode } = require("@notionhq/client")
try {
const notion = new Client({ auth: process.env.NOTION_TOKEN })
const myPage = await notion.databases.query({
database_id: databaseId,
filter: {
property: "Landmark",
rich_text: {
contains: "Bridge",
},
},
})
} catch (error) {
if (error.code === APIErrorCode.ObjectNotFound) {
//
// For example: handle by asking the user to select a different database
//
} else {
// Other error handling code
console.error(error)
}
}
```
### Logging
The client emits useful information to a logger. By default, it only emits warnings and errors.
If you're debugging an application, and would like the client to log response bodies, set the `logLevel` option to `LogLevel.DEBUG`.
```js
const { Client, LogLevel } = require("@notionhq/client")
const notion = new Client({
auth: process.env.NOTION_TOKEN,
logLevel: LogLevel.DEBUG,
})
```
You may also set a custom `logger` to emit logs to a destination other than `stdout`. A custom logger is a function which is called with 3 parameters: `logLevel`, `message`, and `extraInfo`. The custom logger should not return a value.
### Client options
The `Client` supports the following options on initialization. These options are all keys in the single constructor parameter.
| Option | Default value | Type | Description |
| ----------- | -------------------------- | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `auth` | `undefined` | `string` | Bearer token for authentication. If left undefined, the `auth` parameter should be set on each request. |
| `logLevel` | `LogLevel.WARN` | `LogLevel` | Verbosity of logs the instance will produce. By default, logs are written to `stdout`. |
| `timeoutMs` | `60_000` | `number` | Number of milliseconds to wait before emitting a `RequestTimeoutError` |
| `baseUrl` | `"https://api.notion.com"` | `string` | The root URL for sending API requests. This can be changed to test with a mock server. |
| `logger` | Log to console | `Logger` | A custom logging function. This function is only called when the client emits a log that is equal or greater severity than `logLevel`. |
| `agent` | Default node agent | `http.Agent` | Used to control creation of TCP sockets. A common use is to proxy requests with [`https-proxy-agent`](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-https-proxy-agent) |
### TypeScript
This package contains type definitions for all request parameters and responses,
as well as some useful sub-objects from those entities.
Because errors in TypeScript start with type `any` or `unknown`, you should use
the `isNotionClientError` type guard to handle them in a type-safe way. Each
`NotionClientError` type is uniquely identified by its `error.code`. Codes in
the `APIErrorCode` enum are returned from the server. Codes in the
`ClientErrorCode` enum are produced on the client.
```ts
try {
const response = await notion.databases.query({
/* ... */
})
} catch (error: unknown) {
if (isNotionClientError(error)) {
// error is now strongly typed to NotionClientError
switch (error.code) {
case ClientErrorCode.RequestTimeout:
// ...
break
case APIErrorCode.ObjectNotFound:
// ...
break
case APIErrorCode.Unauthorized:
// ...
break
// ...
default:
// you could even take advantage of exhaustiveness checking
assertNever(error.code)
}
}
}
```
#### Type guards
There are several [type guards](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/advanced-types.html#type-guards-and-differentiating-types)
provided to distinguish between full and partial API responses.
| Type guard function | Purpose |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `isFullPage` | Determine whether an object is a full `PageObjectResponse` |
| `isFullBlock` | Determine whether an object is a full `BlockObjectResponse` |
| `isFullDatabase` | Determine whether an object is a full `DatabaseObjectResponse` |
| `isFullPageOrDatabase` | Determine whether an object is a full `PageObjectResponse` or `DatabaseObjectResponse` |
| `isFullUser` | Determine whether an object is a full `UserObjectResponse` |
| `isFullComment` | Determine whether an object is a full `CommentObjectResponse` |
Here is an example of using a type guard:
```typescript
const fullOrPartialPages = await notion.databases.query({
database_id: "897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af",
})
for (const page of fullOrPartialPages.results) {
if (!isFullPageOrDatabase(page)) {
continue
}
// The page variable has been narrowed from
// PageObjectResponse | PartialPageObjectResponse | DatabaseObjectResponse | PartialDatabaseObjectResponse
// to
// PageObjectResponse | DatabaseObjectResponse.
console.log("Created at:", page.created_time)
}
```
### Utility functions
This package also exports a few utility functions that are helpful for dealing with
any of our paginated APIs.
#### `iteratePaginatedAPI(listFn, firstPageArgs)`
This utility turns any paginated API into an async iterator.
**Parameters:**
- `listFn`: Any function on the Notion client that represents a paginated API (i.e. accepts
`start_cursor`.) Example: `notion.blocks.children.list`.
- `firstPageArgs`: Arguments that should be passed to the API on the first and subsequent calls
to the API, for example a `block_id`.
**Returns:**
An [async iterator](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Iteration_protocols#the_async_iterator_and_async_iterable_protocols)
over results from the API.
**Example:**
```javascript
for await (const block of iteratePaginatedAPI(notion.blocks.children.list, {
block_id: parentBlockId,
})) {
// Do something with block.
}
```
#### `collectPaginatedAPI(listFn, firstPageArgs)`
This utility accepts the same arguments as `iteratePaginatedAPI`, but collects
the results into an in-memory array.
Before using this utility, check that the data you are dealing with is
small enough to fit in memory.
**Parameters:**
- `listFn`: Any function on the Notion client that represents a paginated API (i.e. accepts
`start_cursor`.) Example: `notion.blocks.children.list`.
- `firstPageArgs`: Arguments that should be passed to the API on the first and subsequent calls
to the API, for example a `block_id`.
**Returns:**
An array with results from the API.
**Example:**
```javascript
const blocks = await collectPaginatedAPI(notion.blocks.children.list, {
block_id: parentBlockId,
})
// Do something with blocks.
```
## Requirements
This package supports the following minimum versions:
- Runtime: `node >= 12`
- Type definitions (optional): `typescript >= 4.5`
Earlier versions may still work, but we encourage people building new applications to upgrade to the current stable.
