# Notion

The `robomotion notion` CLI connects to Notion for page and database management. It creates and updates pages with rich content blocks, queries databases with filters and sorts, and searches across the workspace.

## When to use
- Create, read, or update Notion pages with content blocks
- Query and filter Notion databases
- Search pages and databases across the workspace

## Prerequisites
- `robomotion` CLI installed
- Package installed: `robomotion install notion`
- Notion integration token configured via Robomotion vault

## IMPORTANT: Session Mode Required for Multi-Step Operations
Each CLI command runs as a **separate process** — connection IDs from `connect` do NOT persist across calls.
You MUST use `--session` on `connect` and pass `--session-id` to all subsequent commands.

## Workflow
1. Install (once): `robomotion install notion`
2. Connect with session:
   ```
   robomotion notion connect --session --output json
   # → {"outClientId":"<client-id>","session_id":"<session-id>"}
   ```
3. Use the returned `client-id` and `session-id` in all subsequent commands:
   ```
   robomotion notion search --client-id "<client-id>" --query <text> --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   ```
4. Disconnect when done:
   ```
   robomotion notion disconnect --client-id "<client-id>" --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   ```

**Always** append `--output json` to get structured JSON results.
