notion-cli Interact with your Notion workspace via the notion-cli.

A production-grade CLI for the Notion API that supports searching, creating and managing pages, databases, blocks, users, and comments with multiple output formats (JSON, table, CSV).

Install Clone and install the CLI:

git clone https://github.com/FroeMic/notion-cli
cd notion-cli
npm install
npm run build
npm link

• Create an integration at https://www.notion.so/profile/integrations
• Copy the Internal Integration Secret (starts with ntn_ or secret_)
• Share any pages/databases you want to access with the integration
• Recommended: Add to ~/.claude/.env for Claude Code
• Alternative: Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc: export NOTION_API_KEY="your-api-key"

Optional: Set NOTION_DEBUG=true for verbose request/response logging.

Commands Search across your workspace:

notion search [query]                                  # Search pages, databases, and data sources
notion search [query] --filter page                    # Search only pages
notion search [query] --filter database                # Search only databases
notion search [query] --sort ascending                 # Sort by last edited time

Work with pages:

notion pages get                              # Get page details
notion pages create --parent  --title        # Create a new page
notion pages update  --properties       # Update page properties
notion pages archive                          # Archive a page
notion pages restore                          # Restore an archived page
notion pages property            # Get a specific property value

Work with databases:

notion databases get                      # Get database schema
notion databases create --parent  --title    # Create a database
notion databases update  --title    # Update database metadata
notion databases query                 # Query records in a data source
notion databases query  --filter             # Query with filters
notion databases query  --sort               # Query with sorting

Work with blocks (page content):

notion blocks get                            # Get a block
notion blocks children                       # List child blocks
notion blocks append  --content        # Append new blocks
notion blocks update  --content        # Update a block
notion blocks delete                         # Delete a block

Work with users:

notion users list                                      # List workspace members
notion users get                              # Get user details
notion users me                                        # Get the authenticated bot user

Work with comments:

notion comments list --block                 # List comments on a block
notion comments create --page  --content   # Add a comment to a page

Global options (available on all commands):

--api-key                                         # Override NOTION_API_KEY env var
-f, --format                                      # Output format: json (default), table, csv
--limit                                             # Max results to return
--cursor                                       # Pagination cursor

Key Concepts

• Base URL: https://api.notion.com/v1
• API Version: 2022-06-28
• Auth: Authorization: Bearer $NOTION_API_KEY
• Rate Limits: Automatic retry with exponential backoff (up to 3 retries)

Common API Operations Search for a page:

curl -X POST https://api.notion.com/v1/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NOTION_API_KEY" \
  -H "Notion-Version: 2022-06-28" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "Meeting Notes", "filter": {"value": "page", "property": "object"}}'

Query a database with filters:

curl -X POST https://api.notion.com/v1/databases//query \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NOTION_API_KEY" \
  -H "Notion-Version: 2022-06-28" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"filter": {"property": "Status", "status": {"equals": "In Progress"}}}'

Create a page in a database:

curl -X POST https://api.notion.com/v1/pages \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NOTION_API_KEY" \
  -H "Notion-Version: 2022-06-28" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"parent": {"database_id": ""}, "properties": {"Name": {"title": [{"text": {"content": "New Task"}}]}}}'

Append content to a page:

curl -X PATCH https://api.notion.com/v1/blocks//children \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $NOTION_API_KEY" \
  -H "Notion-Version: 2022-06-28" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"children": [{"object": "block", "type": "paragraph", "paragraph": {"rich_text": [{"type": "text", "text": {"content": "Hello world"}}]}}]}'

Notes

• The integration must be explicitly shared with each page or database you want to access (via Notion UI: ... menu > Connections > Add your integration).
• Pages can accept IDs as UUIDs or Notion URLs — the CLI will parse both formats.
• All list endpoints support cursor-based pagination via --limit and --cursor.
• Output format can be set to json (default), table, or csv with the -f flag.
• Property types include: title, rich_text, number, select, multi_select, status, date, people, files, checkbox, url, email, phone_number, relation, rollup, formula, and timestamp fields.
