Notion ACTION

Search

Search Notion for pages and databases (data sources) by title. Use this first to resolve a page or database name into an ID that the other Notion tools require (e.g. Query Data Source, Retrieve Database Schema, Get Page, Create Page). Leave query blank to list everything the integration can access. Set filter to data_source to find databases or page to find pages — on the current Notion API a database is returned as a data_source object, and its id is the data source ID you pass to the database tools.

IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Notion account once, then configure and run Search from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "notion-search",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    notion: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    query: "Query",
    filter: "Object Type",
  },
})

console.log(result)
