Connect Notion to give Cogno read access to your team's knowledge base — the pages and databases you choose to share. Cogno reads them; it never edits your Notion content.

## Before you start

* You can open **Settings** in the target workspace.
* You're signed in to the Notion account whose pages you want to share.

## Connect Notion in Cogno

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Notion integration">
    Open **Settings → Integrations** and select **Notion**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize Notion">
    Click **Connect Notion**. Cogno opens Notion's authorization screen in a new window. Choose which pages and databases to share, then approve.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the connection">
    Back in Cogno, the **Connection** section shows your Notion workspace.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Choose which pages Cogno can see

The **Connected pages** section lists the pages and databases you've shared, each tagged **Page**, **Database**, or **Data source** with its last-edited date. To change the selection, click **Change pages** and adjust what you share in Notion's authorization screen.

<Note>
  Cogno reads only the pages and databases you explicitly share. Sharing is managed on Notion's side during authorization.
</Note>

## Disconnect

Under **Disconnect**, click **Disconnect Notion** to remove Notion from this workspace.
