Best Practices

Share databases explicitly with your integration
Use consistent property naming
Structure databases for your workflow needs
Keep content organized with headers

Troubleshooting

Database not appearing

Ensure database is shared with integration
Refresh the integration connection
Check database permissions

Properties not updating

Verify property names match exactly
Check property type compatibility
Ensure select options exist in database

Rate limits

Notion allows 3 requests/second
Batch operations when possible
Space out high-frequency triggers
