Notion

What is the Notion tool?

The Notion tool is a built-in capability in the Agno framework that allows AI agents to interact with notion databases and pages. When added to an agent in Agno Builder, the agent can autonomously decide when to invoke this tool based on the user's request.

This tool requires a NOTION_API_KEY environment variable. Get your API key at www.notion.so.

How to use Notion in Agno Builder

1. 1

   Create an agent

   Drag an Agent node onto the canvas in Agno Builder, or use one of the built-in templates.

2. 2

   Enable Notion

   Click the agent, go to the Tools tab, and toggle on "Notion" from the productivity category.

3. 3

   Add your API key

   Enter your NOTION_API_KEY in the tool configuration. Your key stays in your browser and is never stored on our servers.

4. 4

   Test in chat

   Open the chat panel and send a message. The agent will automatically use Notion when relevant.

5. 5

   Export Python code

   Click File > Export Python to get clean, runnable code with the correct imports for Notion.

Python code example

This is the code Agno Builder exports when you use Notion:

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.tools.notion import NotionTools

agent = Agent(
    name="Notion Agent",
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    tools=[NotionTools()],
    instructions=["Use the notion tool to help the user."],
    markdown=True,
)

agent.print_response("Help me with a notion task")

Install with: pip install agno # + set NOTION_API_KEY
