In this tutorial, we will learn how to update a checkbox value in a Notion database using the Notion API. Each entry in the database is treated as a page, and we will assume that you have the entry stored in a variable called page
with its unique ID available as page.id
. Additionally, we will assume that you have already initialized the Notion client.
To begin, make sure you have imported the required Client
module from '@notionhq/client'
and properly initialized the Notion client by providing your authentication token stored in the process.env.NOTION_API_KEY
.
import { Client } from '@notionhq/client'
//...
const notion = new Client({ auth: process.env.NOTION_API_KEY })
To update the value of a checkbox named “Ready” to true
, use the following code snippet:
await notion.pages.update({
page_id: page.id,
properties: {
Ready: {
checkbox: true,
},
},
})
With this code, you can programmatically update the checkbox value in your Notion database using the Notion API.
