npm install @notionhq/client

Before getting started, create an integration and find the token.

→ Learn more about authorization.

Import and initialize a client using an integration token or an OAuth access token.

const { Client } = require("@notionhq/client")

// Initializing a client
const notion = new Client({
  auth: process.env.NOTION_TOKEN,
})

Make a request to any Notion API endpoint.

See the complete list of endpoints in the API reference.

;(async () => {
  const listUsersResponse = await notion.users.list()
})()

Each method returns a Promise which resolves the response.

console.log(listUsersResponse)

// {
//   results: [
//     {
//       object: 'user',
//       id: 'd40e767c-d7af-4b18-a86d-55c61f1e39a4',
//       type: 'person',
//       person: {
//         email: '[email protected]',
//       },
//       name: 'Avocado Lovelace',
//       avatar_url: 'https://secure.notion-static.com/e6a352a8-8381-44d0-a1dc-9ed80e62b53d.jpg',
//     },
//     ...
//   ]
// }

Endpoint parameters are grouped into a single object. You don't need to remember which parameters go in the path, query, or body.

const myPage = await notion.databases.query({
  database_id: "897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af",
  filter: {
    property: "Landmark",
    text: {
      contains: "Bridge",
    },
  },
})

If the API returns an unsuccessful response, the returned Promise rejects with a APIResponseError.

The error contains properties from the response, and the most helpful is code. You can compare code to the values in the APIErrorCode object to avoid misspelling error codes.

const { Client, APIErrorCode } = require("@notionhq/client")

try {
  const myPage = await notion.databases.query({
    database_id: databaseId,
    filter: {
      property: "Landmark",
      text: {
        contains: "Bridge",
      },
    },
  })
} catch (error) {
  if (error.code === APIErrorCode.ObjectNotFound) {
    //
    // For example: handle by asking the user to select a different database
    //
  } else {
    // Other error handling code
    console.error(error)
  }
}

The client emits useful information to a logger. By default, it only emits warnings and errors.

If you're debugging an application, and would like the client to log response bodies, set the logLevel option to LogLevel.DEBUG.

const { Client, LogLevel } = require("@notionhq/client")

const notion = new Client({
  auth: process.env.NOTION_TOKEN,
  logLevel: LogLevel.DEBUG,
})

You may also set a custom logger to emit logs to a destination other than stdout. A custom logger is a function which is called with 3 parameters: logLevel, message, and extraInfo. The custom logger should not return a value.

The Client supports the following options on initialization. These options are all keys in the single constructor parameter.

This package contains type definitions for all request parameters and responses.

Error classes, such as RequestTimeoutError and APIResponseError, contain type guards as static methods which can be useful for narrowing the type of a thrown error. TypeScript infers all thrown errors to be any or unknown. These type guards will allow you to handle errors with better type support.

try {
  const response = notion.databases.query({
    /* ... */
  })
} catch (error: unknown) {
  if (APIResponseError.isAPIResponseError(error)) {
    // error is now strongly typed to APIResponseError
    switch (error.code) {
      case APIErrorCode.ObjectNotFound:
        // ...
        break
      case APIErrorCode.Unauthorized:
        // ...
        break
      // ...
      default:
        // you could even take advantage of exhaustiveness checking
        assertNever(error.code)
    }
  }
}

This package supports the following minimum versions:

• Runtime: node >= 12
• Type definitions (optional): typescript >= 4.2

Earlier versions may still work, but we encourage people building new applications to upgrade to the current stable.
