Notion MCP Server

Connect Notion to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. An unofficial wrapper for Notion's API, aiming to simplify the dynamic nature of interacting with Notion. The notion mcp server is what makes that connection.

What the server does

A wrapper for Notion's API, aiming to simplify the dynamic nature of interacting with Notion.\ README contains examples of the main functionality, including: creating Pages/Databases/Blocks, adding/removing/editing properties, retrieving property values, and database queries. Some more in-depth walkthroughs can be be found in examples/.

Installation

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: NOTION_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

Among the planning and project tracking options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Worth knowing first

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
• Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
