Common errors - Notion

Common error messages from Notion and how to resolve them

There are no databases shared via this integration token. Please share at least one database and try again.

When authorizing Notion, you must search for and select the specific database you want to sync and not just the page the database lives in.

Use the search in Notion auth to find the specific database you want to sync

A Notion database looks like this in Notion:

“You have not authorized access to a page that can be used as a base for a sync. Please reauthorize the workspace and a page.”

We recently added support for auto-create tables and fields for Notion. With this new feature, Notion now requires users to authorize a Notion page in addition to the usual databases used for syncing. The Notion page you authorized will be the destination for all auto-created tables and fields, should you choose to use this feature.

Notion limit on number of Options in a field:

While we support syncing option field from other app to Notion, Notion has a limitation on the number of options that are allowed in a single field. This is currently a limitation as we don't support syncing Option fields into a text field as a comma-separated list.
