Like most services Drafts integrates with, Notion uses the OAuth standard for authentication. Scripting supports advanced integration, for users needing to work with databases and other block types in Notion. The action step provides a basic, easy to approach way to get your data from Drafts to Notion. Notion script object: Provides a request method which allows you to script calls to the full Notion API, while providing automatic OAuth authenticate flow.Can create new sub-pages, or append to existing pages, as plain text or as to-do lists. Drafts currently two ways to integrate with Notion: Notion is an online project management and information system. The Notion API used for integration is still in beta, as such aspects of this functionality may change or break and Notion finalizes their API. In fact, because the Notion pricing structure offers accounts for free to all customers, you can store your book notes in it too without paying a dime.NOTE: Notion integration requires Drafts v31 or greater. Of course, the main benefit here is that unlike taking notes in a margin, storing them in Notion takes up a whole lot less space. I kept the structure regimented so I can print notes off too, as I often exchange these with friends and colleagues who express an interest in a book I’ve read. Because everything is templatized, and Notion syncs across devices, I can work on a recap on the train on the way home from work, in a coffee shop while I’m waiting to meet a client or at my desk. An example of a Book Notes in Notion.īest of fall, it isn’t as much work as it sounds. Once I finish the entire book, I write a one-paragraph summary, in my own words, which I can refer to if I need a refresher in the future, list the top three quotes I found, and bullet-list the main takeaways - usually processes I want to implement or experiment with. I often find myself linking to other documents in my Notion Workspace, like other books I’ve read or research I’ve done into a particular topic. I’ll note what I learned, any burning questions I have and a one-sentence summary of what that chapter was about. I start with my chapter notes, which I fill in after I finish each one. It’s here that I take my structured notes. What’s more interesting though is the deep-dive I have for each book I’ve read, which I can access by simply clicking on the title in the database - no more having to track down documents in a folder all the notes are together and can be accessed in a couple of seconds. That’s all so that I can filter by all the Personal Development books I’ve read, for example, or even view all of the titles I read in 2021. ![]() I also assign each a rating out of five and note down the date I started reading each title and the date I finished it.

That’s when I created the Notion reading list template we offer through the Notion Wizard Store (it’s on sale $5, but can be yours for free with a Template Club Premium subscription - as well as a whole lot more, like a new template every day). What I soon found though is I had a mass of documents floating around, stored in a folder, with no real way to tie them back to the book, other related books or even research I’d carried out that I want to reference. I used to scribble in the margin, then I took to finishing a chapter and typing out my notes, following a particular structure, to consolidate what I had learned.
