Notion MCP server & Claude connector

Does Notion have an official MCP server or Claude connector?

Official

As of October 2026, Notion runs an official hosted MCP server at mcp.notion.com/mcp, and Anthropic lists it as a verified Claude connector made by Notion. It uses OAuth and works on every Notion plan, with some features limited to Business or Enterprise. It can create, edit and delete pages. The older open-source npm server is no longer maintained.

Setup

Claude (claude.ai / Desktop)

Add Notion from the Claude connector directory (Customize > Connectors) and complete OAuth.

Source

Claude Code

Add the remote server, then run /mcp in Claude Code to authenticate.

claude mcp add --transport http notion https://mcp.notion.com/mcp

Source

Cursor

Create .cursor/mcp.json in the project root, then enable Notion and complete OAuth in Cursor.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "notion": {
      "url": "https://mcp.notion.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Source

VS Code

Create .vscode/mcp.json in the workspace.

{
  "servers": {

      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.notion.com/mcp"
    }

Safety check

Pass
Publisher verified
Endpoint mcp.notion.com is documented on developers.notion.com as 'a remote MCP server hosted by Notion'; Anthropic's directory lists it as 'Made by Notion' with the same connector URL.
Pass
Auth model
OAuth 2 authorization by default; optional MCP tokens (bearer) for Business and Enterprise, created by workspace owners; Enterprise can use enterprise-managed authorization. Workspace owners can manage and revoke client connections.
Flag
Write and delete access
The tool list includes write and destructive tools (notion-delete-pages, notion-delete-databases, notion-delete-comment, notion-move-pages). No read-only mode was found in the docs read; access is limited to content the connected user can access, and Claude lets you set tool permissions.
Pass
Tool-description injection scan
Read the full Supported tools reference (tool descriptions as documented). Found no instructions aimed at the AI to change behavior, hide actions or exfiltrate data. Live tools/list output was not inspected.
Unknown
Repo maintenance
Hosted by Notion; the server itself has no public repo. See the separate open-source entry for the legacy repo.
