Notion

When you connect a Notion workspace to Oblique, Oblique will automatically sync the people in the workspace to Oblique accounts, and the workspace itself to an Oblique resource.

As you invite people to Notion or remove their access, these changes are automatically synced to Oblique.

You can add multiple Notion workspaces to Oblique. These function as separate integrations and are distinguished by their workspace name.

Oblique syncs the following from your Notion workspace.

Notion objectOblique objectCapability
PeopleAccountsRead-only
WorkspaceResourcesRead-only
Workspace membershipEntitlementsRead-only

Oblique syncs each Notion user as an Oblique account. Users who are guests are included. Users who are bots, whose type isn’t person, aren’t synced.

Notion accounts are matched to Oblique users by email.

Oblique’s Notion integration is read-only. Oblique can’t make changes to your Notion workspace or its members.

Oblique syncs the following from Notion as resources:

  • The Notion workspace you connected

Every account has an entitlement for the workspace.

The Notion integration doesn’t read information about roles or teamspaces in Notion.

The Notion integration reads user information, including email addresses.

You must be an admin to add an integration.

You connect a Notion workspace to Oblique by signing in to Notion and approving the access Oblique asks for. You must be a Notion workspace owner to do this.

To add a Notion integration, navigate to the Integrations page:

  1. Select Add integration.
  2. Select Notion.
  3. Select Connect Notion.
  4. Sign in to Notion as a workspace owner and approve the access Oblique asks for.
  5. When Notion asks which pages to give Oblique access to, select People under System. You don’t need to select any pages.

Oblique will immediately start syncing the workspace’s people.

Change Notion integration’s authorizations

Section titled “Change Notion integration’s authorizations”
You must be an admin to change an integration's authorizations.

To reconnect the Notion integration, including to change the workspace owner it is tied to, from the integration’s detail page:

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab.
  2. Under Connection, select Reconnect.
  3. Sign in as a different Notion workspace owner and approve the access Oblique asks for.

You can only reconnect the current workspace. To change the workspace, instead delete the integration and add another one.

Oblique’s Notion integration is read-only, so it can’t be used to manage your Notion workspace or its members. Make these changes in Notion directly, and Oblique will sync them automatically.

You must be an admin to remove an integration.

To remove a Notion integration, from the integration’s detail page:

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab.
  2. At the bottom of the page, under Delete integration, select Delete integration….
  3. In the confirmation dialog, type the text to confirm, then select Delete integration.

This will immediately stop all syncing and remove all resources from the integration.
