Agent access

Notion MCP is a remote MCP server hosted by Notion at https://mcp.notion.com/mcp; MCP clients connect after OAuth authorization and act with the user's permissions. Limiting which clients members can connect needs the Enterprise plan. source, source 2, source 3, source 4, source 5, source 6 · checked October 31, 2026

On by default?Not published as of October 31, 2026

High credit consumption models stay off until an owner or admin turns them on. source, source 2, source 3 · checked October 31, 2026
Trains on customer data?By default, neither Notion nor its AI providers use Customer Data to train models, and contracts bar providers from training on it. Customers can opt in to share workspace data through the AI LEAP Program. source, source 2, source 3 · checked October 31, 2026
RetentionEnterprise: most models offer zero data retention; the few that do not are off by default and need the workspace owner to opt in. Free, Plus and Business: the AI provider keeps data for 30 days or fewer. source, source 2, source 3, source 4 · checked October 31, 2026
Where data is processedThe sub-processor list gives Global as the processing location for Anthropic, OpenAI and Google; embeddings are stored in Turbopuffer in the USA, Germany, Korea and Japan. source · checked October 31, 2026
Model providersThe sub-processor list names Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, X.AI and Cerebras for hosting models; Fireworks, Baseten and Modal for compute to serve models; Parallel Web Systems for web search and hosting models; Exa for web search; and TypeSafe AI for classification models.

Connections to outside MCP servers

Notion Agent and Custom Agents connect to outside MCP servers on Business and Enterprise. Admins choose which servers members can connect from an approved list, whether custom MCP servers are allowed, and can remove a member's connection. A Notion Agent connection uses the member's own account; a Custom Agent connection belongs to that one agent and uses the credentials of whoever authenticated it. source, source 2, source 3, source 4, source 5, source 6, source 7 · checked October 31, 2026
