Google Sheets and Notion, ready to switch on

A row you add in the sheet becomes an item in the Notion database you connect with the columns you map, and the status of that item is written back into the row. You paste a Notion key and a link to your sheet, and we switch it on for you.

No setup fee, cancel any month, and a person on live chat if a key doesn't work.

How to set up Google Sheets and Notion

A few minutes of your time, then it's ours.

  1. Choose Google Sheets and Notion
    Press Connect. This pair is already selected on the checkout page at $39 a month, and there's nothing else to pick.
  2. Pay and open your account
    Card or invoice, about two minutes. The account opens with this integration waiting for its two keys.
  3. Paste the Google Sheets link and the Notion integration secret
    • Google Sheets link: create or open the spreadsheet, share it with the address our engineer sends you or with anyone who has the link, and paste the link from the address bar. Full Google Sheets guide
    • Notion integration secret: open notion.so/my-integrations, press New integration, choose Internal and give it a name. Full Notion guide
    Each screen carries the full guide with the exact menu names, about six minutes for both.
  4. We check both keys
    Each key is checked against Google Sheets's and Notion's own API the moment you paste it. If one doesn't pass, the screen says what to fix, and a person joins the chat if that isn't enough.
  5. Add one test row, then we switch it on
    A minute or two. Add a row in Google Sheets and wait for the page to appear in Notion. It runs on a short schedule, so give it a minute. A person checks the setup and switches it on, within a working day.

When Google Sheets or Notion changes its API, we fix it within a working day. You don't get a ticket to solve.

$39a month
  • Everything in the table above, with monitoring on.
  • Fixes when either app changes its API.
  • A person on live chat, weekdays 10:00 to 19:00 EET.
  • Custom logic beyond the table is priced separately.
Ask us to connect it

What it will cost once you can switch it on yourself. While we're in beta we connect it by hand and don't charge for it.

Before you decide

Why a minute and not seconds?

Google Sheets doesn't announce cell changes, so we check on a short schedule. Out of Notion it's within seconds.

What if two people edit the same thing?

The last change wins, and we never overwrite a column we don't own. Name a winning side if that isn't enough.

Can a Notion formula or rollup go to the sheet?

Yes, read one way. Formula and rollup properties land in the row like any other column, and they can't be written back, because Notion computes them. Editing that cell in the sheet changes nothing.

Which property types can the sheet fill?

Text, number, select, date and checkbox map straight across. People and relation properties are matched by name where we can and left empty where we can't, rather than guessed.

Anything to know about Google Sheets?

Google Sheets doesn't tell anyone when a cell changes, so anything we read back out of a sheet is picked up on a short schedule rather than the moment you type it.

Anything to know about Notion?

An integration only sees the pages and databases you have connected it to, so a database nobody shared with it stays invisible even to a valid key.

What if mine is a bit different?

Tell us what should go where in plain words. Small changes to the rules above are usually free; bigger ones we price within a working day and build into the same account.
