How it works

Turn your Notion databases and pages into fully functional Zite apps that your team, clients, or users can access without working directly in Notion. Once connected, Zite can read and write the Notion pages you select. By connecting Zite to Notion, you can:
  • Create secure portals and internal tools powered by Notion data
  • Add, edit, and update Notion pages directly from your Zite app
  • Display your Notion data using custom views like directories, dashboards, and task boards
  • Add search, filtering, and sorting so users can quickly find the information they need
  • Create new Notion content from app actions and workflows
