Markdown to Notion

Load a Markdown file into Notion with GitHub Actions.

How does it work?

This action will read your Markdown file and convert it to Notion blocks using martian.
It will then append a synced block to your page containing the result of the conversion.
By default, the action will delete the first synced block it'll find in the page: this way it's able to quickly update your page without causing duplicates. Please keep in mind that you're not supposed to add other blocks to the page, otherwise the action may not work properly.

FAQs

How do I get a token?

Create a new intergration and save its token to a new repository secret.
Share your page with your integration and update your workflow to use the secret.

How do I find the page ID?

Go to your page in Notion, then look at the URL. Notion URLs are formatted like this:

https://notion.so/<TITLE>-<PAGEID>
https://notion.so/<TITLE>-<PAGEID>#<BLOCKID>

Both <PAGEID> and <BLOCKID> (when present) are dash-less UUIDv4 strings, here's an example: 17e70ad9dc1941adbd2d19155fc4ac8f.
To get the page ID, simply copy the first ID in the URL.

https://notion.so/title-01ff8594fa8a4fb192cf017f8fdbf8d4
-> ID: 01ff8594fa8a4fb192cf017f8fdbf8d4
