Notion - Agent

A service account with admin access is required to connect Notion to Corma with the Agent. For Notion specifically this requires to pay for an additional license. If you don’t want to add another license, you can still share your own admin credentials.

With the Agent connected to Notion, you can:

• Collect license types: retrieve every Notion licenses used by your employees, and have them listed in Corma by types, which are either guest or paid licenses. Get valuable insights on who is using what in your company to quickly make sure everyone has the appropriate Notion license at the right time.
  

• License (de)provisioning: automatically create or delete Notion accounts from Corma without going manually to your Notion workspace. The agent now automatically handles these tasks, fully on its own, and without needing any SCIM or any public API either.
  

Retrieved data: License Type, License Role, Email, Username

Here’s how to setup your Notion Agent properly:

1. On your Corma app go to the Data sources page

   https://app.corma.io/integrations

2. Under "All data sources" search for “Notion” and find the one with the agent icon. Then click on “Connect”

   

3. Click on "Connect" again

   

4. Select your authentication method

   

   • Method 1: provide your credentials for autonomous agent integration

     Provide Corma with your Notion service account credentials directly (that must have admin rights). Corma will handle the login automatically, including TOTP-based 2FA codes (e.g., Google Authenticator).

   • Method 2: manually connect to let us save your session temporarily

     Corma opens an embedded browser where you log in manually, using your Notion service account credentials (with admin rights). Your session is then saved and the agent acts on your behalf within that session.

5. Method 1: Service account credentials

   1. Use this if your service account uses:

      • An email address and password

      • A "Sign in with Google", as long as you have the underlying Google account credentials.

        Optionally, a TOTP-based authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy). You'll then need to provide Corma with your TOTP key for the agent to get access to your one-time generated passwords.

   2. Enter your Notion service account credentials in the fields provided (email, password, and TOTP key if applicable) and click on “Connect“

      If the login fails or redirects to a company SSO page, switch to Method 2.

      

   3. Select which workspace you want the agent to operate on. You can find the name of your Notion workspace in the top left corner of your Notion app. If you have different workspaces, filter on the one you want.

      Please indicate the exact workspace name as it appears in the app's interface (not an ID or URL), ensuring the agent operates on the correct workspace and not on a personal or unrelated account.

      

   4. Confirm that the Agent successfully logs in

      

      1. A browser will pop up, with the agent automatically starting to log in to Notion using the service account credentials. The first agent login takes some time.

      2. You can click on “Take control” at any time to stop the run, and manually interact with the browser. You can then resume at any time, clicking on the same button now showing “Resume”.

      3. You can also click on “Cancel” to stop the agent completely. You’ll be redirected to the “Authentication Strategy” card.

      4. If for some reason the agent can’t log in, you’ll be asked to manually enter your credentials and log in.

      5. Once the agent is successfully logged in, you then need to click on “Validate login”.

         

      6. You’ve successfully connected Notion to Corma!

6. Method 2: Interactive session

   Disclaimer: this method only saves your session. Therefore, if the session were to expire, Corma will ask you to connect manually again.

   1. Use this if your service account uses:

      • Enterprise SSO (Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace SAML, etc.)

      • Microsoft SSO, especially if unexpected pop-up windows appear

      • Email-based 2FA (one-time codes sent to your inbox, you'll need to enter these during the manual login)

      • No password at all (SSO-only accounts)

   2. Corma will open an embedded browser window. Log in to Notion as you normally would using your service account, including any SSO flow, 2FA code, or email verification your company requires.

      If you receive a 2FA code by email during this process, simply enter it in the browser as prompted.

      

   3. Once you successfully logged in, click on “Validate login”

      

   4. You’ve successfully connected Notion to Corma!

7. Data should be synchronized within the next 24 hours and will be synched every day to your Corma app.
