# Notion

Connecting Notion to PYLO, what it brings and how to tell it is working.

Notion connects to PYLO so that:

- A Notion database you track leads, calls or deals in becomes PYLO records: mapped field by field, checked in a dry run, then imported and kept in step.

## Connecting

Notion connects by an API key you paste into PYLO. Open Settings, then Integrations, then Notion.

1. Paste the integration's secret below.
2. In Notion, share each database PYLO should read with the integration.
3. Map each database onto PYLO, run the dry run, then start the import. PYLO never writes to Notion.

| You provide | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| Internal integration secret | In Notion, open Settings, then Connections, then Develop or manage integrations. Make an internal integration with read content, copy its secret, and share each database PYLO should read with it. |

## What PYLO reads

- Only the databases shared with the integration, page by page

It does not read:

- Pages and databases not shared with the integration
- Page content beyond each database's properties
