Notion AI Integration

Turn your Notion workspace into an AI-searchable knowledge base

What is it?

About Notion

Notion is the all-in-one workspace used by modern companies to store their internal wiki, meeting notes, product specs, and team documentation. It is often the single source of truth for internal knowledge, making it ideal to connect to an AI assistant.

Integration capabilities

How BeforeQuery works with Notion

Everything you can do once the Notion integration is connected.

Pages, databases, and wiki indexing

BeforeQuery indexes Notion pages and database entries (including properties), plus nested sub-pages. Your entire workspace knowledge graph is searchable.

Scheduled sync

Configure a sync schedule so BeforeQuery refreshes its Notion index daily or weekly, keeping answers current as your team updates the wiki.

Visibility controls

Map Notion pages to BeforeQuery collections with restricted visibility. Internal content stays internal — it never surfaces in public-facing widgets.

Employee portal integration

Connect Notion to BeforeQuery's internal Ask assistant so all staff can ask questions about internal policies, processes, and onboarding material.

Setup

How to connect Notion

  1. Step 01

    In BeforeQuery, add a Notion source and authenticate with your Notion workspace via OAuth.

  2. Step 02

    Select which pages and databases to grant BeforeQuery access to. BeforeQuery only reads what you explicitly share.

  3. Step 03

    Run the first sync and configure a recurring schedule to keep the index current.
