Official serverRemoteWork management

1. Add the server

Run in your terminal

code --add-mcp '{"name":"notion","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.notion.com/mcp"}'

2. Sign in

VS Code opens the sign-in flow when Copilot first calls a remote OAuth server. Notion is hosted by Notion, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask VS Code (GitHub Copilot) for something Notion can do. Search, read and update Notion pages and databases in the signed-in user's workspace. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

  • · mcp.json uses a top-level servers key, not mcpServers.
  • · code --add-mcp installs a server into your user profile from the terminal.
