How to integrate Notion in Morgen Calendar

Brenna

Integrate Notion with all your calendars to effortlessly start scheduling your tasks. Morgen's integration with Notion is designed to help you can realistically plan, deliberately schedule, and track progress of your Notion tasks right in your calendar.

How to connect Morgen and Notion

From Morgen desktop app:

  • Open the Task panel by clicking the check mark icon in the left rail
  • Click on the ... at the top of the task manager to open the dropdown menu
  • Select Connect a task integration
From the task panel menu select Connect a task integration.

This will open Morgen's integration widget. Click the ‘Add account’ button, then select Notion from the dropdown menu.

Select Notion from the list of integrations to get started.

You will be prompted to sign in to Notion, grant Morgen permission to access to the Notion databases that you select. Then click on Select Pages to choose which Notion pages containing the databases you want to allow Morgen to access.

Morgen only asks for access to those pages you select to integrate.

Next, select the pages you want to sync to Morgen. You will then be asked to map the properties from your Notion database to Morgen, informing what information to include in tags, which tasks should be imported, how task status should sync between the two, and more. All other database properties will be shown as labels without the need to map anything.

Consider what tasks are important for you to plan in your calendar and what information you will need to do so.

Your Notion tasks in Morgen

Once you save your configurations, you will be directed back to Morgen. Notice that you now have a Notion tab in your task manager, populated with tasks from the selected Notion databases.

We recommend you take a moment to tune the way your Notion tasks are displayed. You can do so by open the task manager dropdown menu, and changing the way your tasks are grouped and ordered, as well as which tags are visible.

You can change the way your tasks are organized and grouped, what information they display, and which tasks should be visible in the side bar.

You can click on any of these tasks to see their details, including notes, priority levels, and due dates.

Note: Your Notion task details are locked. You cannot modify the task in Morgen, such as changing the due date or adding more notes. You can do so directly in Notion by simply clicking Open in Notion in the task widget.

See the details of your Notion tasks in Morgen. Note the content here is locked and can only be updated in Notion.

Now you're ready to start planning and time blocking your Notion tasks in Morgen.
