🔧 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"Authentication Error"

Check your .env file has correct Nango credentials
Verify your Nango integration is active
Ensure your Notion integration has proper capabilities

"Page not found" errors

Make sure you've shared the page/database with your integration
Check the page/database ID is correct
Verify the integration has read access

Claude can't find the server

Check the absolute path in claude_desktop_config.json is correct
Ensure Python is in your system PATH
Try running the server manually first to test

"No access token found"

Verify Nango connection is working
Check your NANGO_CONNECTION_ID matches your actual connection
Try refreshing your Nango integration

Debug Mode

Run with verbose logging:

python notion-mcp-server.py --debug

Manual Testing

Test individual functions:

from notion_mcp_server import NotionClient client = NotionClient() user = client.get_current_user() print(f"Connected as: {user.get('name')}")

🔒 Security Notes

Never commit your to version control
Keep your Nango secret key secure
Only share Notion pages that the integration needs access to
Regularly review your integration's access in Notion settings

📁 File Structure

notion-mcp/ ├── main.py # Main MCP server ├── pyproject.toml # Python dependencies ├── .env.example ├── .env # Your credentials (don't commit!) ├── README.md # This file

🆘 Getting Help

Check the logs - Look for error messages in Claude Desktop or terminal
Verify permissions - Ensure your integration can access the pages
Test manually - Run the server directly to isolate issues
Check Notion status - Sometimes Notion API has outages
