Notion datasource

The Notion datasource queries a Notion database and makes its rows available to your content, so a page you already maintain in Notion can be shown on screens without copying it anywhere.

Prerequisites

  • A Notion account with the database you want to display.
  • A Notion credential saved in Wallboard. It is created on the Other tab of Cloud credentials, which lists Notion as its own credential type.

Create the Notion datasource

  1. Go to Settings >> Datasources >> External datasources and click Add new
  2. On the Choose a datasource type screen, select Notion
  3. In the datasource settings panel on the left, select your saved Notion credential and identify the Notion database the datasource should read
  4. In the Advanced settings panel, set the Refresh interval (seconds) to match how often the Notion content changes. See External Datasources for the full list of advanced and cache settings
  5. Save the datasource using the save icon in the top toolbar

Display the data

Once the datasource is saved, bind it to a widget the same way as any other external datasource — a Table widget for a list of rows, or individual widgets bound to single fields.
