How to integrate Notion with Webflow

While Notion doesn't offer an official Webflow app, you can use apps like SyncFlow, Cloudpress, and Whalesync for automated syncing, embed methods for displaying Notion content directly, or both platforms' APIs for maximum control over data flow and content transformation.

Use Webflow Marketplace apps

SyncFlow enables real-time CMS synchronization between Notion databases and Webflow collections.

Install it from the Webflow Apps panel, then map your Notion properties to Webflow fields.

Key capabilities include:

• Bi-directional syncing that updates content on both platforms
• LaTeX support for mathematical content and equations
• Inline styling preservation to maintain formatting during sync

For one-way content migration, Cloudpress excels at bulk exports from Notion to Webflow CMS:

• Automatic image optimization with compression and WebP conversion
• Embed transformation converting YouTube links to proper Webflow embeds
• Field mapping for metadata like authors and categories

Advanced data orchestration needs are met by Whalesync, which synchronizes across multiple platforms:

• Multi-platform workflows connecting Notion, Webflow, Airtable, and Google Sheets
• Conflict resolution for simultaneous edits in different platforms
• Enterprise-grade reliability with audit trails and version tracking

Use embed methods and native features

Webflow's native capabilities enable basic Notion integration without additional tools. The Code Embed element accepts Notion's public page URLs to display content directly on your site. Simply publish your Notion page to the web, copy the public URL, and embed it using Webflow's custom code component.

For enhanced functionality, leverage these approaches:

• Dynamic embeds in CMS by storing Notion URLs in collection fields, then binding them to embed elements
• Responsive iframe styling using custom CSS to ensure mobile compatibility
• Partial page embeds by appending block IDs to URLs for displaying specific Notion sections

Webflow's native features also support:

• Form submissions to Notion via webhook integrations with Zapier or Make
• Comment syncing between Webflow's design feedback and Notion task databases
• Asset synchronization for images and files through automated workflows

Note: Basic embeds have a 10k character limit and no customization options, which may be restrictive for content-heavy use cases.

Build with Webflow and Notion APIs

Direct API integration unlocks capabilities beyond third-party tools, enabling custom authentication flows, real-time content synchronization, and complex data transformations. This approach suits teams needing tailored workflows or handling sensitive data that requires custom security implementations.

Notion’s API handles database queries and content manipulation, while Webflow’s Data API supports CMS operations. Key integration possibilities include programmatic content publishing, user data synchronization, and automated workflow triggers based on content changes.

Automate content publishing workflows

Build a publishing pipeline that moves content from Notion drafts to live Webflow pages:

1. Query Notion databases using POST /v1/databases/{database_id}/query to filter content by status
2. Transform block content via GET /v1/blocks/{block_id}/children to retrieve rich text and media
3. Create Webflow CMS items through POST /collections/{collection_id}/items with mapped fields
4. Trigger site publishing using Webflow's publish API when new content is ready

The Notion API documentation provides details on filtering options and pagination, while Webflow's CMS endpoints explain field mapping and validation requirements.

Sync user-generated content

Connect form submissions and user data between platforms:

1. Capture Webflow form data via webhooks configured in site settings
2. Create Notion database entries using POST /v1/pages with form data as properties
3. Update user records in both systems using batch operations for efficiency
4. Handle file uploads by transferring assets between platforms' CDNs

Implement proper error handling as detailed in Notion's error codes documentation and respect Webflow's rate limits of 60 requests per minute.

What you can build

Integrating Notion with Webflow opens possibilities for content-rich websites that update automatically as teams collaborate.

• Dynamic knowledge bases: Technical documentation sites where engineers write in Notion while Webflow displays formatted content with syntax highlighting and interactive examples
• Multi-author blogs: Editorial teams collaborate on articles in Notion with comments and revisions, while SyncFlow automatically publishes approved content to a beautifully designed Webflow blog
• Product catalogs: E-commerce sites that sync inventory data from Notion databases to Webflow collections, enabling non-technical teams to manage products without CMS access
• Team directories: Company intranets displaying employee profiles, project assignments, and org charts pulled from Notion's structured databases into Webflow's polished layouts
