Connect your apps

Notion

Connect Notion to bring your workspace into Cloa. Once linked, Cloa can find pages you already wrote, pull their contents into a conversation, draft new pages on your behalf, and keep existing ones up to date.

Example prompts

Once Notion is connected, try asking Cloa:

"Find my Q2 planning doc in Notion and summarize the open questions."

"Create a Notion page from our last conversation and put it in the Meetings database."

"Update the launch checklist with the items we just agreed on."

"What's in my Reading List database from this month?"

"Search Notion for anything about the pricing rework."

How to connect

  1. Open the Cloa app.
  2. Tap MenuIntegrationsNotion.
  3. Tap Connect and sign in with Notion. You're handing credentials to Notion directly; Cloa never sees your Notion password.
  4. In Notion's picker, choose which workspaces and pages to share with Cloa. You can share an entire workspace, a few top-level pages, or a single database.
  5. Confirm the selection to return to Cloa. The integration is ready as soon as the screen closes.

You can change what's shared at any time from Notion's settings, or revisit the integration screen in Cloa to reconnect with a different set of pages.

Each Notion action has its own setting under Integrations → Notion → Permissions. The defaults below match how most people use the integration.

ActionRecommendedWhy
Read (search, read pages, query databases)AlwaysReading is safe and powers most of what Cloa does with Notion
Create (new pages and rows)AlwaysNew pages are easy to delete or move if you don't want them
Update (edit pages and rows)Ask FirstChanges apply to existing work, so a quick confirmation keeps you in control

Pick Off for any action you don't want Cloa to take, Ask First to confirm each time, or Always to let Cloa handle it without interrupting you. Cloa avoids destructive changes by default and only removes a page when you ask it to directly.

How Notion data shows up elsewhere

Once Notion is connected, Cloa can use it inside Automations as well. For example, a daily summary automation can pull this week's standup notes from Notion, combine them with your calendar, and post the result back as a new Notion page. Cloa keeps to the same per-action settings, so an automation that updates a page still asks first if that's your preference.

Cloa also offers Spaces for browsing connected Notion pages inside the app without starting a chat. Spaces is a separate feature; see Cloa Files for details.

You can also view your connected Notion pages in Spaces

Disconnecting

To remove the connection, open MenuIntegrationsNotion and tap Disconnect. Cloa immediately loses access to your Notion pages, and any active automation that relies on Notion pauses until you reconnect. To fully revoke access from Notion's side, visit your Notion settings and remove Cloa from the connected apps list.
