What is Notion MCP?

Notion MCP is a remote Model Context Protocol server hosted by InsightfulPipe. Search and read Notion pages, databases, and data sources, retrieve block trees, query data-source rows, and (with read+write scopes) create or update pages and blocks. The OAuth scopes you granted at connect time decide what's allowed.

Installation

Claude

1. Copy the MCP Server URL: https://notion.insightfulmcp.com/
2. Open Claude Connectors Settings
3. Scroll to the bottom and click Add custom connector
4. Paste the URL and click Add
5. Click Connect and sign in to InsightfulPipe if asked. Claude then lists the connector as connected.

ChatGPT

Custom MCP servers are added through ChatGPT's Developer mode. Availability depends on your ChatGPT plan, and workspace admins may need to allow it.

1. Turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT settings
2. Create a new app for a remote MCP server and paste the URL: https://notion.insightfulmcp.com/
3. Sign in to InsightfulPipe if asked. The connection finishes as soon as you are signed in.

See OpenAI's guide: Developer mode and MCP apps in ChatGPT

Control What Your AI Can Do

You decide what AI agents can do with each connected account:

• Turn individual actions on or off for every connected account, so agents only see the actions you allow.
• Connect as Read-only or Read & Write. A read-only connection can only enable read actions.
• Destructive actions stay off by default. Actions such as deletes are disabled until an admin enables them.
• Team access per account. Restricted team members only use the accounts they are granted, with the read actions enabled on them.

Usage Examples

"Search my workspace for pages about Q4 planning"

"Show items in the Content Calendar database due this week"

"Create a page with this week's campaign notes"
