By Example: How Truto Helps Engineers Build Faster Integrations - Notion

Notion is a powerhouse. To leverage it to the fullest, you also need a powerful integration.

With our Notion integration rollout, we believe we've exceeded expectations - the integration supports reading from over 40,000 pages. It also offers an upgrade over the standard Notion page selector by introducing the ability to select pages based on parent-child relationships, among other features.

The integration enables users to connect their Notion accounts and select the files they wish to sync. This feature is incorporated with RapidForm. RapidForm is our solution that allows your users to easily choose specific files or folders in their accounts.

This approach also helps ensure that you maintain strong data integrity and privacy by requesting access only to specific files and pages from your customers.

Enabling RapidForm will help your engineering team skip over tedious UI tasks, and save time.

How it works

  • Connect a Notion account

  • Use the OAuth app provided by Truto or your OAuth app to authorize

  • Chooses specific files to sync

This RapidForm UI represents a significant improvement over the standard Notion page selector. Truto's RapidForm enables customization of the form field, including parent-child selectors, and provides a separate tab for viewing all selected pages. During our tests, it easily accommodated large Notion accounts with over 40,000 pages.

  • RapidForm can be initialized at any point using our Link SDK. This will enable your users to select additional files or pages at a later point in time.

  • All pages are stored as variables for easy access in RapidBridge and other places. You can learn more about variables here.
