#notion #node #express #api

Today we will learning send data to Notion by API

Setup new project

At here I use "Express application generator" for fastest setup new project

Steps:

1/ Install express-generator

npm install -g express-generator
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

2/ New project with name InjectionRegistrationNotion

express **--view=ejs** **InjectionRegistrationNotion**
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

image

cd InjectionRegistrationNotion
npm install
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3/ Start server and get ready for write code

npm start // for start server this project
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Access to localhost:3000

Great! Everything ready for next step

Let's make a Form Injection Registration

For write User Interface, I used ejs engine because it friendly with HTML native

Now, We can check UI will be update in browser

Process Server Side With API Notion

Because this is a small example. So I will write all code in "routes/index.js" for everyone easy follow

We need to make a new router for handle when Form submit

router.post("/", async function (req, res, next) {
//To be get parameter before Form submit and send data to server. We can use
const {name, email, phone, address, sex, note} = req.body;
//Just for debug
console.table({name, email, phone, address, sex, note});
//Redirect to form when before submit
res.redirect('/');
});
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

We can check data before submit

In web

image

In terminal be for click to "button Send"

Here we have done for get data from Form submit to Server, The next step we will send this data to Notion

Send data to Notion by API

First step we can install package "@notionhq/client"

npm i @notionhq/client
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

image

Register to use the package

//Required package
const {Client} = require("@notionhq/client")
//Setup config
const notion = new Client({
    auth: process.env.NOTION_TOKEN,
})
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Send data to Notion by API

await notion.pages.create({
        parent: {
            database_id: process.env.NOTION_DATABASE_ID,
        },
        properties: {
            Name: {
                title: [
                    {
                        text: {
                            content: name,
                        },
                    },
                ],
            },
            Email: {
                email: email,
            },
            PhoneNumber: {
                rich_text: [
                    {
                        text: {
                            content: phone,
                        },
                    },
                ],
            },
            Address: {
                rich_text: [
                    {
                        text: {
                            content: address,
                        },
                    },
                ],
            },
            Gender: {
                select: {
                    name: gender
                },
            },
            Note: {
                rich_text: [
                    {
                        text: {
                            content: note,
                        },
                    },
                ],
            },
        },
    });
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Setup file .env

NOTION_TOKEN=secret_heBrP3242423424322iHM8UzmjnALYvJ4WoeLA
NOTION_DATABASE_ID=ccfe5824942343224aa20ec85e1c2f7e
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

We wrote the code

Access to link http://localhost:3000/ and fill data click button "Send"
