# Notion Search

Blocks for searching pages and databases in a Notion workspace.

## Notion Search

### What it is

Search your Notion workspace for pages and databases by text query.

### How it works

This block searches across your Notion workspace using the Notion Search API. It finds pages and databases matching your query text, with optional filtering by type (page or database).

Results include titles, types, URLs, and metadata for each match. Leave the query empty to retrieve all accessible pages and databases. Pagination is handled automatically up to the specified limit.
