append_block

Requires the parent block/page ID and a JSON array of block objects.

Requires the database ID and a properties JSON object matching the database schema. Use get_database to see the property types and keys. Properties must follow Notion's format: {"Name":{"title":[{"text":{"content":"My Page"}}]},"Status":{"select":{"name":"Done"}}}. Create a new row (page) in a Notion database

get_me

Returns the bot name, ID and type. Use this to verify your integration token is working correctly and to see which bot identity the API calls will appear as. Get the authenticated Notion bot user

get_page

get_page_blocks

list_users

Each user has an ID, name, avatar URL, email (if available) and type (person or bot). Useful for identifying who has access and who created content. List users in your Notion workspace

search

Optionally filter by text query (matches page titles and database names). Returns pages and databases with their properties, titles and parent info. Use this to discover content before querying or editing specific pages. Search pages and databases in Notion
