Send meeting recaps to Notion

Notion is one of the most popular places to keep meeting recaps. Dimmy talks to it directly: it uploads your recap markdown to a page or database you choose, using your own Notion integration token. No Dimmy server sits in the middle, and it works the same on Windows and macOS.

Connect Notion (one-time setup)

Dimmy uses a private (internal) Notion integration token. The Connect wizard walks you through it. Open Dimmy → Settings → Integrations → Notion → Connect Notion.

Step 1: prepare your Notion workspace

1. 1Open the Notion integrations page (the wizard has an Open Notion integrations button, or go to notion.so/my-integrations).
2. 2Click New integration, name it Dimmy, pick your workspace, save.
3. 3Copy the Internal Integration Secret. That's your token (it looks like ntn_… on newer tokens, or secret_… on older ones).
4. 4Open the Notion page or database you want recaps to land in. Click ··· → Connections → add your new Dimmy integration. Until you do this, Dimmy sees zero pages.

Step 2: paste your token

1. 1Paste the token into the wizard's token field.
2. 2Click Verify. Dimmy pings Notion and shows "Connected as <bot> in <workspace>" on success.

Step 3: pick a destination

1. 1Click Refresh list. Dimmy shows every page and database your integration can see.
2. 2Pick one from the dropdown. That's where recaps will be created.
3. 3If your page isn't listed, you skipped the Connections step above. Add the integration to it in Notion, then Refresh again.

Send a recap

Open a finished meeting's Done view. Click the Send recap to Notion button (the Notion mark in the toolbar). Dimmy creates a new page from the recap markdown under your chosen destination and shows a confirmation with an Open in Notion button.

Auto-send every meeting

If you want every recap in Notion without clicking, turn on Settings → Integrations → Notion → the auto-send toggle. When on, each meeting's recap uploads to your destination as soon as the recap finishes. When off, you send per meeting from the Done view.

Good to know

• Free Notion accounts work. There are no per-plan API limits, only Notion's standard rate limit (about 3 requests/second).
• Only the recap markdown leaves your machine when you (or auto-send) trigger an upload. The token and destination stay on device.
• Notion parses the markdown server-side, so headings, bullets, tables, and code fences come through as real Notion blocks.
• Disconnect any time: Settings → Integrations → Notion → Disconnect. Dimmy forgets the token and destination; your Notion content is untouched.

Bonus: dictate straight into Notion

Separate from recaps, you can dictate into any Notion text field like any other app. Click into a page, press your Dimmy hotkey, speak, release. Pair it with the Summarize style for brain dumps that become bullets. See Long voice notes that become structured recaps.

Advanced: let Claude build richer Notion pages

The built-in integration creates one page per recap. If you want Claude to do more (set page properties, file under a specific database, combine several meetings), you can connect Notion's own MCP server to Claude alongside Dimmy's MCP and ask in plain language.

• In Claude Desktop: open Settings → Connectors, add Notion's hosted MCP at https://mcp.notion.com/mcp, and sign in. (Same per-page sharing rule applies: add the integration to the pages you want Claude to touch.)
• In Claude CLI: claude mcp add --transport http --scope user notion https://mcp.notion.com/mcp

Then chain Dimmy and Notion in one prompt, for example:

text
Read my last Dimmy meeting (dimmy_get_recent_meetings, then dimmy_get_meeting). Write a recap with dimmy_get_recap_template. Then create a Notion page in my "Meetings" database with that recap as the body, the meeting title as the title, and today's date in the Date property.

Troubleshooting

• Destination list is empty: you haven't added the Dimmy integration to any page. In Notion, open the target page → ··· → Connections → add Dimmy, then Refresh.
• Verify fails: re-copy the Internal Integration Secret (it's easy to grab a truncated string). Make sure you copied from the right integration.
• "Notion not connected" when sending: finish the Connect wizard first (token + destination). The Send button can't do anything without both.
• Page created but looks thin: very deeply nested markdown can flatten. Keep the recap template to 2 levels of bullets.
