– Introduction

This is the SnapMemo guide on connecting your Notion account. This step-by-step guide will help you create a Notion integration, retrieve your integration token, and find your database ID. By the end of this guide, you’ll be able to send your SnapMemo notes to your Notion database.

– Creating a Notion Integration

1. Log in to Notion: Open your web browser and log in to your Notion account.
2. Navigate to Integrations: Go to the Notion Integrations page.
3. Create a New Integration:
   • Click on the “New integration” button.
   • Fill in the required details such as the name of the integration (e.g., “SnapMemo Integration”) and select the workspace where you want to use this integration.
   • Click on the “Submit” button to create the integration.

– Retrieving Your Integration Token

1. Copy the Integration Token:
   • After creating the integration, you will see a field labeled “Internal Integration Secret”.
   • Click on the “Show” button to reveal the token.
   • Copy the token to your clipboard. You will need this token to connect SnapMemo to Notion.

– Finding Your Database ID

1. Open Your Notion Database:
   • Navigate to the Notion database where you want to send your SnapMemo notes.
2. Copy the Database ID:
   • Look at the URL in your browser’s address bar. The database ID is the part of the URL after notion.so/ and before ?v=.
   • For example, in the URL https://www.notion.so/yourworkspace/1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef?v=abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890, the database ID is 1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef.
   • Copy the database ID to your clipboard.

– Required Fields and Connecting the Integration

1. Ensure Required Fields:
   • Your Notion database must have the following fields:
     • Title: This field will store the title of your SnapMemo notes.
     • Note: This field will store the content of your SnapMemo notes.
   • Make sure these fields are correctly named in your Notion database.
2. Connect the Integration to Your Database:
   • Open your Notion database.
   • Click on the “…” button at the top right corner of the database.
   • In the “Connections” section, search for the integration you created earlier (e.g., “SnapMemo Integration”).
   • Select the integration to connect it to your database.
   • Ensure that the integration has the necessary permissions to read and write to the database.

– Connecting SnapMemo to Notion

1. Open SnapMemo:
   • Open the SnapMemo extension in your browser.
2. Enter Your Integration Token and Database ID:
   • Go to the dashboard or the Notion integration section in SnapMemo.
   • Paste the integration token and database ID into the respective fields.
   • Click on the “Save” button to connect SnapMemo to Notion.

   • Ensure that the integration has the necessary permissions to access your database.
   • If the problem persists, try creating a new integration and using the new token.
3. How do I know if my notes are sending correctly?
   • After connecting SnapMemo to Notion, create a test note in SnapMemo and send it to Notion.
   • Check your Notion database to see if the note appears.
   • If the note does not appear, double-check your integration token and database ID, and ensure that SnapMemo has the necessary permissions.
