The Notion API allows developers to connect their tools and code directly to Notion workspaces. With endpoints to create, query, update, and manage pages, databases, blocks, and comments, developers frequently use Notion as an intuitive, zero-code Headless CMS, content management system, or CRM backend.

js fetches and renders them as static HTML. It also powers automated syncing between Notion databases and internal tools (like GitHub issues, Linear tasks, or Stripe revenue metrics).
