# Set up Notion authorization for Postman Flows

To run Postman Flows templates that use Notion, you need to set up authorization between Notion and Postman. To set this up, you will do the following:

1. Create an internal integration in Notion.
2. Create a new page in Notion.
3. Run the flow as a [scenario](/docs/postman-flows/build-flows/configure/scenarios/) to create a Notion database.

Before you get started, you need:

* A [Notion](https://www.notion.so/signup) account
* A Postman [environment](/docs/sending-requests/variables/managing-environments/) to run the flow

## Create an internal Notion integration

To create a Notion integration to use with Postman Flows, do the following:

1. Log in to [Notion](https://www.notion.so/profile/integrations) and navigate to **Integrations**.

2. Select **New integration**.

3. Select the workspace where you want to install the integration.

4. For **Type**, select **Internal**.

5. Select **Save**.

6. Copy the value of the **Internal Integration Secret**, and then save it as a [variable](/docs/sending-requests/variables/variables-intro/) in your Postman environment named `Notion_Secret`.

## Create a new page

To create a new page in Notion, do the following:

1. Open the Notion workspace where you created the integration.

2. Create a new page in the **Private** section of the sidebar.

3. Copy the ID number from the new page's URL. For example, in a URL like `https://www.notion.so/Example-1234567890abcdef`, the ID number is `1234567890abcdef`.

4. Save the ID number as a variable in your Postman environment named `Notion_Parent_ID`.

5. In the upper right corner of your page in Notion, open the ellipsis menu. Select **Connect to** and then select the integration you created.

## Create a database

To create a database on the new page in Notion, do the following:

1. Return to the flow template.

2. Run the flow using the **Create Database** scenario.

## Next steps

After you've completed your Notion configuration, you can return to the flow template or set up authorization for another integration in Postman.
