The hosted MCP works on every Notion plan. A few tools (unlimited SQL queries, meeting notes, connected-source search) need Business or Notion AI.
Notion runs its own hosted MCP server at https://mcp.notion.com/mcp. You connect it with OAuth, and Claude can then search, read, create and update anything your account can see in that workspace. That's the one to use. The open-source makenotion/notion-mcp-server package still exists, but Notion's docs say it's no longer actively maintained.
For marketers this is mostly about the content calendar. Ask Claude to pull every row in your editorial database that's still in Draft with a publish date this week, check each brief, and write the missing meta descriptions into the page properties. Or have it turn a messy page of call notes into a campaign brief using your template. If Notion is where your content lives, our Notion tool page covers the app itself.
Some tools depend on your plan. SQL queries through notion-query-data-sources share a usage cap unless you're on Business or Enterprise with Notion AI. Meeting-notes queries need Business plus Notion AI, and searching connected sources like Slack or Google Drive needs Notion AI. notion-search is limited to 30 requests a minute.
The caveat: Claude can edit everything you can edit. Workspace owners can see and revoke MCP connections under Settings → Connections. The hosted server also needs an interactive OAuth login, so fully unattended scripts still have to use the regular Notion API.

How to set up the Notion MCP Server
Works with: Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code
claude mcp add --transport http notion https://mcp.notion.com/mcp
Then type /mcp inside Claude Code and finish the OAuth flow. Add --scope user to use it across all projects.
3. Cursor: create .cursor/mcp.json (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for every project):
{
"mcpServers": {
"notion": {
"url": "https://mcp.notion.com/mcp"
}
}
}
4. ChatGPT / Codex: add this to ~/.codex/config.toml, then run codex mcp login notion:
[mcp_servers.notion]
url = "https://mcp.notion.com/mcp"
5. Clients that only support local servers: bridge it with mcp-remote:
{
"mcpServers": {
"notion": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.notion.com/mcp"
]
}
}
}Alternatives
Notion's older open-source server. Token-based and fine for unattended scripts, but no longer actively maintained.
Lets Claude add Notion pages or database items as one step in a bigger multi-app action.
