Notion
Connect Notion, share pages and databases, and sync written product context into Layr.
Notion holds PRDs, specs, feedback databases, and research notes. Layr reads pages and databases you share during OAuth and then include in source selection.
Who can connect Notion
Only Owner and Workspace admin roles can open Integrations and manage Notion.
Before you connect
- You need permission to authorize Notion OAuth for the Notion workspace that holds your product docs.
- Decide which pages or databases should become evidence — Layr only sees content you share with the integration during OAuth.
- Publishing a Notion page from an approved Layr draft is a separate intentional export, not automatic ingest.
Connect Notion
Open Integrations
In the Layr app, open Integrations from the workspace navigation.
Start OAuth and share content
On the Notion card, select Connect. In Notion's authorization screen, choose the pages and databases Layr should be allowed to access.
Discover shared sources
Back in Layr, Refresh sources to list pages and databases Notion exposed to the integration.
Enable sources and confirm
Toggle on the pages and databases Layr should ingest, then select Confirm and start first sync.
Adding more Notion content later
If you create new pages or databases after the initial connect:
- Share them with the Layr integration in Notion (or reconnect if your Notion admin changes top-level access).
- Return to Layr Integrations and Refresh sources.
- Enable the new sources and sync.
What gets synced
Layr normalizes page content and database rows from included sources into searchable evidence. Sources you leave disabled are never read.
After the first sync
- Included Notion sources stay updated via webhooks after confirmation.
- Admins can run manual sync from the Notion card if content looks stale on Home.
- Optional Notion write/export flows require an explicit action inside Layr.
Tips
- Share the smallest useful set of pages first — expand after you validate evidence quality in Ask.
- Database properties and page body text both contribute to evidence; keep sensitive drafts out of shared pages until you are ready to include them.
