# Connect AI agents to your Notion workspace

*AI agents that read your Notion pages, draft new ones, and post the result to Slack — research briefs, compliance memos, onboarding playbooks, technical docs.*

## The connection

Fidelic agents connect to Notion through the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) (MCP), which exposes your Notion workspace to the agent the way a colleague would have access — through OAuth, with scopes you control. The integration falls back to Notion's REST API directly when an action isn't yet covered by the MCP surface.

The connection lives inside your sandboxed [Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/) project — one project key per Fidelic customer. Notion sees an OAuth app for your workspace; Fidelic infrastructure is not in the path between the agent and your pages.

Two access modes are available. Read-only — the agent indexes pages and databases for retrieval; used by knowledge agents like [ZADO-01](/agents/zado) to ground Slack answers. Read-write — the agent can create and edit pages in databases the workspace owner explicitly shares; used by writing agents like  , [OREN-01](/agents/oren), and [VELA-01](/agents/vela) to draft research, docs, and memos in the workspace your team already reads.

## Permissions requested

- Read pages and databases the workspace owner explicitly shares with the integration
- Create new pages in shared databases
- Update pages the agent itself has authored
- Read comment threads
- Optional: post a comment when the agent flags an open question for review

Official docs: <https://developers.notion.com/>

## Before you start

- A Notion workspace on any plan — Free, Plus, Business, or Enterprise.
- Workspace owner role, or an admin who can install third-party integrations.
- A Slack workspace where the agent will live and post (the agent shows up in Slack first; Notion second).
- A decision on which databases the agent should reach — knowledge bases for read-only agents, draft destinations for writing agents.
- About five minutes for the OAuth flow plus a thirty-minute background index build.

## How to connect

1. **Sign in to Fidelic and pick the agent you want to hire.** From the Roster, choose the agent that needs [Notion](https://www.notion.so/) access — [ZADO-01](/agents/zado) for [Slack](https://slack.com/)-grounded knowledge answers,   for technical docs, [OREN-01](/agents/oren) for daily research briefs, [VELA-01](/agents/vela) for compliance memos. Each agent has a [Notion](https://www.notion.so/) connect button on its setup screen.
1. **Authorize **[**Notion**](https://www.notion.so/)**.** Click Connect [Notion](https://www.notion.so/). The OAuth dialog opens; sign in with your workspace owner account. The app appears in Notion's Settings & Members → Connections panel under the name Fidelic — [agent codename].
1. **Pick the databases the agent should reach.** Notion shows a permissions screen with every database in your workspace. For read-only agents (knowledge agents), select your published-docs databases. For writing agents, select the destination databases the agent will draft into. You can change this any time from Notion's Connections panel.
1. **Confirm and finish.** The agent runs a test read against the first database you shared. When the test passes, your [Slack](https://slack.com/) channel shows a Connected to Notion message naming the agent. The full database index builds in the background over the next thirty minutes.
1. **Try the first agent action.** Ask the agent a question in [Slack](https://slack.com/) — it will surface the answer with the Notion source link. For writing agents, wait for the next scheduled trigger or a real event and check the destination database for the draft. If nothing fires within an hour, post @[agent] status in [Slack](https://slack.com/) and the agent will report what it's waiting on.

## How you'll know it worked

Three signals confirm the connection is live.

- **Slack — **your channel shows a Connected to Notion message naming the agent and the databases it can reach.
- **Notion — **the Settings & Members → Connections panel shows the Fidelic OAuth app with the databases you authorized.
- **First output — **the agent's first run produces a Slack reply that cites a Notion page (read-only agents) or creates a draft in your selected database (writing agents).

| Someone asks a question that has no documented answer | Adds the question to the Notion 'Open questions' database | Flags the team in Slack to triage and write the missing doc | [ZADO-01](https://fidelic.ai/agents/zado) |

## Connection limits

The agent only reaches the pages and databases the OAuth scope explicitly permits. Workspace owners control that scope — adding a database is a one-step Notion permissions change, not a contract negotiation.

Fidelic agents do not currently:

- Modify Notion's database schema. Column types, page templates, and database structure stay under your workspace admin's control.
- Bulk-export entire workspaces. The read pattern is page-by-page and database-by-database, not workspace-wide crawl.
- Author word-anchored comment replies threaded to a specific phrase. We read comment threads; we don't yet position replies on a selection.
- Replace Notion AI's in-page generation. Notion AI is good at the single-page task you initiate from inside Notion. Fidelic agents do work that spans Notion plus your other tools — drafting from a Slack thread, watching an external trigger, posting the result back in chat.

## Where the data goes

The Notion connection runs inside your sandboxed [Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/) project. The OAuth credential is stored on [Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/)'s infrastructure under your project key, not on Fidelic systems.

When the agent reads a Notion page, the page content passes from Notion through your [Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/) project to the model, and the model's output goes back to Notion or to Slack — never to a Fidelic-operated database. Fidelic operates the agent template; we don't run an intermediate store that holds your Notion content.
