# Fix Notion connection & permission errors

> Use this when Notion modules fail with 401 or a permission error — grant your Notion integration access to the page/database and re-set the Make connection.

By far the most common Notion issue is a **permission error**: the integration token is
valid, but it hasn't been **granted access to the specific page or database** you're
automating. Issuing the token is only half the setup.

## When you need this

<Warning>
  **Symptom:** Notion modules fail with **`401`**, a permission error, or "the connection page
  has no permission" — even though the token looks correct.
</Warning>

## Fix

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a Notion integration token">
    In Notion, create an internal integration and copy its token. This is the value you put
    in the **Notion Token** field of the Make connection.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Grant the integration access to the page or database">
    Open the **page or database you want to automate**, and add your integration to it via
    its **Connections** menu (top-right **•••** → **Connections** → add your integration).
    Add it at the **top-level** page/DB so child pages inherit access.

    <Note>
      This is the step most people miss. A token with no access to the target page returns
      `401` / permission errors on every call.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Register the connection in Make">
    Enter the **Notion Token** (and, for unofficial operations, the **Space ID** and
    **User ID**) on the Make Notion Plus connection. Manage your connections at
    [make.magicmealkits.com/connections](https://make.magicmealkits.com/connections).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test with a simple value first">
    Run the module with a **plain text** input to confirm the connection works, then build up
    to your real payload. This isolates a permission problem from a data/formatting problem.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Still failing? Re-set the connection

If access is granted but calls still fail, the stored session may be stale. **Re-register the
Notion connection** — log out of Notion, then reconnect while logging back in. Re-creating the
connection clears most cookie/session errors.

<Note>
  For other Magic Meal Kits products (Plaud, Tiro, Threads) the per-service credentials are
  stored server-side — reconnect those accounts from
  [make.magicmealkits.com/connections](https://make.magicmealkits.com/connections). Notion is
  the exception: the token is supplied per request. See [Authentication](/authentication) and
  the [Notion API overview](/api-reference/notion/overview).
