What is Notion MCP Server?
A Model Context Protocol server that gives AI clients (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, etc.) full read/write access to Notion using a personal access token. Designed for agents, automation, CI, and self-hosted deployments where OAuth-based authentication is impractical.
How to use Notion MCP Server?
Obtain a Notion Personal Access Token (PAT) from the developer portal. Add the server to your MCP client by running npx -y notion-mcp-server (or using Docker) with the NOTION_TOKEN environment variable set. No per-page sharing is required.
