Notion – Overview

WorkSights integrates with Notion to bring document activity and collaboration signals directly into the activity timeline. Once connected, WorkSights listens for activity within selected Notion spaces and displays those actions as structured events your team can rely on.

When mapped users create or update pages or add comments in Notion, TeamScore receives metadata about that activity and surfaces it as a clear timeline entry. This gives teams visibility into ongoing work without exposing sensitive content.

How Notion Data Appears in WorkSights

Each Notion activity appears as an individual entry on the timeline with contextual information about the change.

Entries typically include:

• The user who performed the action
• The page or document affected
• The associated workspace or teamspace
• The time the activity occurred

Notion pages are treated as documents inside WorkSights. Page edits and updates appear as document activity, while comments appear as related activity entries within the activity detail view.

WorkSights represents Notion activity using existing WorkSights activity categories, following the WorkSights standard color system.

Objects WorkSights Syncs from Notion

WorkSights receives metadata for the following Notion objects:

• Pages
• Comments

Pages function similarly to documents in other systems such as Google Drive. When users create or modify pages, WorkSights records that activity as a document event.

Comments associated with pages appear within the activity detail view so teams can understand collaboration context.

Integration Page Overview

The Notion integration page contains:

Overview Tab – connection status and integration owner

Users Tab – Notion users mapped to WorkSights users

Connections Tab – connected Notion workspace and refresh controls

Users are automatically matched to WorkSights user entities using email addresses. Only mapped users generate Notion activity inside WorkSights.

Processing Schedule

Notion activity is processed every 20 minutes. Processing runs at:

• 14 minutes past the hour
• 34 minutes past the hour
• 54 minutes past the hour

New activity will appear on the WorkSights timeline after the next processing cycle completes.

Data Access and Privacy

WorkSights ingests only the metadata required to represent Notion activity. This includes object names, timestamps, references to the originating page, and the identity of the user who performed the action.

WorkSights does not receive or store:

• Page bodies
• Comment text
• File contents
• Attachments
• Database content

The integration follows Notion’s permission model, and WorkSights displays only the information accessible to the Notion account used during setup.

All processing remains metadata-only, ensuring that sensitive content inside Notion pages and comments is never exposed inside WorkSights.

Troubleshooting

If Notion activity is missing, check the following:

• Was the correct Notion workspace connected?
• Are users mapped by email?
• Did the activity occur after the integration was connected?
• Did the activity occur within the last 20-minute processing window?

Refreshing the connection typically resolves expired tokens or permission changes.
