Notion

This guide walks you through preparing your Notion environment for MCPMark and authenticating the CLI tools.

1 · Set up Notion Environment

  1. Duplicate the MCPMark Source Pages Copy the template database and pages into your workspace from the public template following this tutorial: Duplicate MCPMark Source.

  2. Set up the Source and Eval Hub for Environment Isolation

    • Prepare two separate Notion pages:
      • Source Hub: Stores all the template databases/pages. Managed by SOURCE_NOTION_API_KEY.
      • Eval Hub: Only contains the duplicated templates for the current evaluation. Managed by EVAL_NOTION_API_KEY.
    • In Notion, create an empty page in your Eval Hub. The page name must exactly match the value you set for EVAL_PARENT_PAGE_TITLE in your environment variables (e.g., MCPMark Eval Hub).
    • In Notion's Connections settings:
      • Bind the integration corresponding to EVAL_NOTION_API_KEY to the Eval Hub parent page you just created.
      • Bind the integration corresponding to SOURCE_NOTION_API_KEY to your Source Hub (where the templates are stored).

  3. Create Notion Integrations & Grant Access

    a. Visit Notion Integrations and create two internal integrations (one for Source Hub, one for Eval Hub).

    b. Copy the generated Internal Integration Tokens (these will be your SOURCE_NOTION_API_KEY and EVAL_NOTION_API_KEY).

    c. Share the Source Hub with the Source integration, and the Eval Hub parent page with the Eval integration (Full Access).

    Source Page Create Integration API Access Grant Access Source Grant Access Eval

2 · Authenticate with Notion

*.bash
Shell
# First, install Playwright and the browser binaries
playwright install
# Then, run the Notion login helper with your preferred browser
python -m src.mcp_services.notion.notion_login_helper --browser {firefox|chromium}

The verification script will tell you which browser is working properly. The pipeline defaults to using chromium. Our pipeline has been fully tested on macOS and Linux.

3. Running Notion Tasks

  1. Configure environment variables: make sure the following service credentials are added in .mcp_env.
*.txt
Plaintext
## Notion
SOURCE_NOTION_API_KEY="your-source-notion-api-key"   # For Source Hub (templates)
EVAL_NOTION_API_KEY="your-eval-notion-api-key"       # For Eval Hub (active evaluation)
EVAL_PARENT_PAGE_TITLE="MCPMark Eval Hub"           # Must match the name of the empty page you created in Eval Hub
PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSER="chromium" # default to chromium, you can also choose firefox
PLAYWRIGHT_HEADLESS="True"
  1. For single task or task group, run
*.bash
Shell
python -m pipeline --exp-name EXPNAME --mcp notion --tasks NOTIONTASK --models MODEL --k K

Here EXPNAME refers to customized experiment name, NOTIONTASK refers to the notion task or task group selected (see Task Page for specific task information), MODEL refers to the selected model (see Introduction Page for model supported), K refers to the time of independent experiments.
