# Notion Uploader | Sync Datasets to Notion (`forlex/notion-uploader`) Actor Upload any Apify dataset to a Notion Database. Simple field mapping, reliable upserts (prevent duplicates), and seamless Notion integration. - **URL**: https://apify.com/forlex/notion-uploader.md - **Developed by:** [Rifky Afriza](https://apify.com/forlex) (community) - **Categories:** Automation, Integrations - **Stats:** 1 total users, 0 monthly users, 0.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $2.00 / 1,000 results This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Notion Database Uploader & Dataset Sync API Upload any Apify dataset to a **Notion Database** automatically. This tool serves as the perfect bridge between Apify's extraction capabilities and your Notion workspace. It lets you funnel scraped leads, products, and articles directly into your Notion CRM. | Feature | Description | | --- | --- | | πŸ—ΊοΈ **Simple JSON Mapping** | Map dataset fields to your Notion Database properties easily (`{"Notion Property Name": "dataset.path"}`). | | πŸ”„ **Native Upsert** | Specify a deduplication key to update existing records instead of duplicating them. | | ⚑ **Integration Ready** | Trigger automatically when another Actor finishes via Apify Integrations. | ### How do I use Notion Uploader to sync data? 1. Go to the [Notion Uploader](https://apify.com/forlex/notion-uploader) on Apify. 2. Enter your **πŸ”‘ Notion API Key** (`ntn_...`) and invite the integration to your target database. 3. Paste the **πŸ—„οΈ Notion Database ID** from your database URL. 4. Enter an **πŸ’Ύ Apify Dataset ID** or leave blank if using as an integration. 5. Provide a JSON **πŸ—ΊοΈ Field Mapping** to connect dataset fields to Notion columns. 6. Click **Start** to watch your Notion database fill up! ### Pricing This Actor operates on a **Pay-Per-Event (PPE)** model. You pay **$0.002 per row** uploaded to Notion. Because this is an API integration without headless browsers, it is extremely cost-effective for large datasets! ### Input & Output Examples **Input:** ```json { "notionApiKey": "ntn_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", "databaseId": "0e99d3d9ab0f45...", "datasetId": "W5x...", "fieldMapping": { "Title": "title", "Price": "price", "URL": "url" }, "dedupeKeyField": "url", "maxItems": 20 } ```` **Output:** *This actor does not output new data; it reads an existing dataset and modifies your Notion Database directly.* ### Other Actors Supercharge your Notion workflows with our other tools: - **[Notion Template Scraper](https://apify.com/forlex/notion-template-scraper)**: Extract creators and prices from the Notion Template Gallery! - **[Notion Page & Database Scraper](https://apify.com/forlex/notion-page-scraper)**: Export any public Notion Wiki to clean Markdown. ### FAQ & Disclaimers **My data isn't showing up in Notion!** Make sure you explicitly "Invite" your Notion Integration to the specific Database you are trying to write to. (Click the three dots in the top right of your database -> Connections). **How does Deduplication work?** If you provide a `dedupeKeyField` (like `url`), the Uploader searches Notion for a row with that exact value before inserting. If found, it updates the existing row. *[Automate your Notion workspace today!](https://apify.com?fpr=5uxnkx)* # Actor input Schema ## `notionApiKey` (type: `string`): Your Notion internal integration secret (starts with 'ntn\_'). Make sure to invite the integration to your target database. ## `databaseId` (type: `string`): The ID of the destination Notion database (from the URL). ## `datasetId` (type: `string`): The ID of the dataset to upload. Leave empty to use the default dataset of the triggering run (if running as an integration). ## `fieldMapping` (type: `object`): Map Notion property names to dataset field names. Example: {"Name": "title", "Link": "url", "Price": "price"} ## `dedupeKeyField` (type: `string`): Optional: A dataset field name (e.g., 'url') to use for deduplication. If a row with this value already exists in the target Notion database, it will be skipped to prevent duplicates. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of items to upload. ## Actor input object example ```json { "maxItems": 20 } ``` # Actor output Schema # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "maxItems": 20 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("forlex/notion-uploader").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`πŸ’Ύ Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // πŸ“š Want to learn more πŸ“–?
