Notion is a bundled OAuth2 provider in authsome. Notion pages, databases, and blocks within workspaces the user grants.

​
Prerequisites

You need to register an OAuth app with Notion once. Create a public OAuth integration in your Notion workspace settings. Set the redirect URI to authsome’s callback. The redirect URI must be:
This is the only callback URL authsome’s PKCE flow listens on. Dashboard: https://www.notion.so/my-integrations.
Notion’s standard OAuth flow does not use PKCE. For an MCP-style flow with DCR, use notion_dcr instead.

​
Log in

The first time, authsome opens a local form at http://127.0.0.1:7998 to collect your client_id and client_secret. They are encrypted in your vault and reused on every subsequent login. A second browser window then opens to https://api.notion.com/v1/oauth/authorize for the authorization step. Verify:

​
Multiple accounts

Pass --connection <name> on login and on every read command to keep two or more accounts on the same provider side by side. See Multiple connections per provider for the full pattern.

​
Use the token

Run the agent under the proxy (recommended).
Under the proxy, authsome sets NOTION_ACCESS_TOKEN=authsome-proxy-managed in the child’s environment and injects the real token into outbound requests to api.notion.com. The child process never sees the actual value. Refresh tokens are never exported.

​
Override the bundled definition

User-registered files always win over bundled definitions.
