Notion MCP Server
Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| HTTP_PROXY | No | Route all outbound traffic — Notion API calls and the downloads in get_image and upload_file's `url` source — through an HTTP(S) proxy (standard env var, lowercase also accepted). | |
| HTTPS_PROXY | No | Route all outbound traffic — Notion API calls and the downloads in get_image and upload_file's `url` source — through an HTTP(S) proxy (standard env var, lowercase also accepted). | |
| NOTION_TOKEN | Yes | Personal Access Token (`ntn_…`, recommended) or Internal Integration secret (`secret_…` / `ntn_…`). Get a PAT at app.notion.com/developers/tokens, or an Internal Integration at app.notion.com/developers/connections. | |
| NOTION_PAGE_ID | No | Default parent for create_page / create_database when no `parent` is passed (page → Share → Copy link; the whole URL or the bare 32-char id both work). | |
| NOTION_FILE_URLS | No | `ref` replaces Notion's signed file URLs (~1,650 chars, valid for an hour) in slim responses with short `notion-file:` refs. | full |
| NOTION_READ_ONLY | No | `true`/`1`/`yes` disables every write operation in one switch. | |
| NOTION_RATE_LIMIT | No | Requests/second for the shared limiter (Notion's documented per-integration limit). | 3 |
| NOTION_UPLOAD_ROOT | No | Confine upload_file's `path` source to one directory. | |
| MCP_PROTOCOL_NEGOTIATION | No | Set to `auto` (e.g. for Claude Code) so the server probes for MCP 2026-07-28 (stateless requests, cache hints on every list); otherwise the 2025-era protocol over stdio is used. The server serves both. | |
| NOTION_DAILY_LOG_PAGE_ID | No | Only used by the daily-log MCP prompt. | |
| NOTION_ALLOWED_OPERATIONS | No | Comma-separated allowlist of operations or group presets (read, write, destructive, pages, blocks, databases, data_sources, views, comments, users, files). | |
| NOTION_BLOCKED_OPERATIONS | No | Comma-separated blocklist (same vocabulary as the allowlist); wins over the allowlist. | |
| NOTION_CONFIRM_DESTRUCTIVE | No | `true`/`1` keeps destructive operations enabled but asks you first via MCP elicitation. |
