Notion MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes the official Notion SDK, allowing AI models to interact with Notion workspaces.

Quick Start

1. Set up your Notion integration

  1. Go to https://www.notion.so/my-integrations
  2. Create a new integration
  3. Copy the API key

2. Add to your AI assistant

You can add this MCP server to Claude Desktop, Cursor AI, or Claude.ai using either of these configuration formats:

Command Line Format

npx @ramidecodes/mcp-server-notion@latest -y --api-key=your-notion-integration-key

JSON Configuration Format

{ "name": "Notion", "command": { "args": [ "@ramidecodes/mcp-server-notion@latest", "-y", "--api-key=your-notion-integration-key" ], "env": {}, "executable": "npx" } }

Replace your-notion-integration-key with the API key from step 1.

Setup Instructions

  • Claude Desktop: Settings > Advanced > Model Context Protocol
  • Cursor AI: Settings > AI > MCP Servers
  • Claude.ai (Web): Profile > Settings > API & Integrations > Model Context Protocol

Available Tools

The server provides tools for interacting with Notion:

  • Search: Find pages or databases
  • Databases: Query and retrieve database entries
  • Pages: Create, retrieve, and update pages
  • Blocks: Manage content blocks (paragraphs, lists, etc.)
  • Users: List users and get user information
  • Comments: Create and list comments
  • Link Previews: Create link previews for URLs

Alternative Setup Methods

Using Environment Variables

Instead of passing the API key directly, you can use a .env file:

  1. Create a .env file with:
NOTION_API_KEY=your-notion-integration-key
  1. Run the server:
npx @ramidecodes/mcp-server-notion@latest -y

JSON Configuration with Environment Variables (for Claude Desktop)

You can also use environment variables in the JSON configuration format:

{ "name": "Notion", "command": { "args": ["@ramidecodes/mcp-server-notion@latest", "-y"], "env": { "NOTION_API_KEY": "your-notion-integration-key" }, "executable": "npx" } }

Command Line Options

OPTIONS: -h, --help Show help message -v, --version Show version information --verbose Enable verbose logging --env-path <path> Path to .env file --api-key <key> Notion API key -y Skip confirmation prompts

Troubleshooting

If you encounter "Failed to create client" errors:

  • On Windows, try using cmd /c before the npx command
  • On macOS/Linux, try using the full path to npx
  • Test the command in a terminal before adding it to your AI assistant

Features

  • Full Notion API support through the official SDK
  • MCP compliant for seamless AI integration
  • Comprehensive tools for all Notion operations
  • Robust error handling with detailed messages
  • Easy configuration with environment variables
