Notion

Connect Notion to bring deal plans, account notes, handoff docs, and other workspace context into Tempo. Notion is not required to use Tempo, but connecting it gives Tempo another source of deal context. After you link a Notion page to an opportunity, Tempo keeps that page synced as a deal artifact and uses it alongside your CRM, meetings, email, calendar, and Slack context.

​

How it works

Tempo connects to Notion through OAuth. During authorization, Notion asks you to choose the workspace and pages you want to share with Tempo. After Notion is connected, you can link specific Notion pages to specific opportunities in Tempo. Tempo reads linked pages, converts the page content into a text artifact, and attaches that artifact to the opportunity. If a linked page contains child pages, Tempo discovers those child pages and syncs them to the same opportunity as nested mappings. Notion page edits sync automatically. Tempo listens for Notion page update webhooks and also runs a periodic reconciliation sync to catch missed updates.

​

Connecting Notion

Only an organization admin can connect Notion. The connection belongs to the Tempo organization and serves its members.

​

Linking pages to opportunities

Once Notion is connected, you can link pages from the Connections page or from an opportunity.

​

From the Connections page

1. Open Connections.
2. Expand Notion.
3. Click Link Page.
4. Search for a Notion page or paste a Notion URL.
5. Choose the opportunity the page belongs to.
6. Click Link Page.

​

From an opportunity

1. Open the opportunity in Tempo.
2. Add a Notion Page artifact.
3. Search for a Notion page or paste a Notion URL.
4. Click Done.

Tempo starts syncing the page after it is linked. The synced artifact appears in the opportunity’s activity and artifact history.

​

What gets synced

Tempo syncs the readable content from linked Notion pages, including page titles, headings, paragraphs, lists, to-dos, quotes, callouts, code blocks, table rows, and databases. Some Notion content is represented as a placeholder instead of being imported in full. This includes files, media, bookmarks, and embeds.

​

Permissions

Tempo requests access through Notion’s OAuth flow. The access granted to Tempo is controlled by the pages you select in Notion and the capabilities configured for the Tempo Notion integration.

​

What we do with access

• Search pages shared with the Tempo Notion integration
• Read linked page metadata, including title, URL, and last edited time
• Read linked page content and supported child page content
• Attach synced Notion content to the opportunity you selected in Tempo
• Re-sync linked pages when Notion reports content changes

Tempo does not write to your Notion workspace.

​

Managing access

You can stop syncing a page from the Notion Page Mappings section in Tempo Connections. Unlinking a page stops future sync for that mapping. Existing Tempo artifacts remain in the opportunity history. To remove Tempo’s access to a page entirely, update the page’s connection settings in Notion or revoke the Tempo integration from your Notion workspace.

​

Troubleshooting

​

I cannot find a page when searching

Make sure the page was shared with the Tempo integration during Notion authorization. To share additional pages, open Notion and go to Settings → Connections → My connections → Tempo → Select page access, then select the pages you want Tempo to access. If you recently shared a page, wait a moment and search again, or paste the page URL directly.

​

A pasted Notion URL does not resolve

Check that the URL points to a Notion page, not a database view or another Notion object. Also confirm that the page is shared with the Tempo integration.

​

A page updated in Notion has not changed in Tempo

Most updates sync automatically after Notion sends a page update event. If an event is delayed or missed, Tempo’s periodic reconciliation sync will refresh linked pages.

​

A child page is missing

Tempo syncs child pages it can discover from a linked parent page. Confirm that the child page is accessible to the Tempo integration and is still present under the linked page.
