Key takeaways
- Granola's settings include a native Notion connector plus an API key/MCP integration for tools like Claude and ChatGPT
- Connecting Granola to Notion automatically builds a database of your meeting notes in Notion
- Claude's connectors panel (Customize section) lets you add both Granola and Notion separately
- Once both connectors are added, you can reference and update your Granola notes and Notion database directly from a Claude chat
How do you connect Granola to Notion?
Open the Granola desktop app, go to Settings, then Connectors. Select the Notion connector and, if your account isn’t already linked, complete the connection flow. Once connected, Granola automatically builds a Notion database that organizes all of your Granola notes in a simple, referenceable format.
What is the Granola MCP integration used for?
Inside Granola’s Connectors settings, alongside the native integrations, there’s an API key and MCP integration option. This is what lets you connect Granola directly to tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and other platforms, rather than only syncing through Notion.
How do you add Granola and Notion as connectors in Claude?
Go to claude.ai, open the Customize section, and look at Connectors. From there you add each tool the same way you connected Granola to Notion.
- Select the plus sign to add a connector.
- Choose “Browse connectors.”
- Type in “Granola” and select connect.
- Type in “Notion” and select connect.
What can you do once Granola and Notion are both connected to Claude?
Once both connectors are added, your Claude chat can reference your Notion database and your Granola notes directly, and you can update either one through the MCP connections without leaving the chat.
Full video transcript
In this video, I’m going to share with you how to connect Granola to Notion and then how you can access both of these tools with Claude.
First thing you’re going to do is open up your Granola desktop app and go to your settings. Inside of the settings, go to Connectors. Inside of Connectors, you’ll see a few native integrations as well as an API key and MCP integration, which you can connect to tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and other platforms.
For now, you’re going to select Notion. And if your account is not connected, simply do a connection to your Notion account — for example, connect Notion, connecting Granola. Once the connection is complete, you’ll go back to Granola and see that Notion is connected.
Now, inside of Notion, you’ll have a database built for you with all of your Granola notes organized in a simple and easy-to-reference format.
Now, when you want to connect both these tools with Claude, head over to claude.ai, go to the Customize section, and look at your connectors. As you can see, I have Granola, which I’ve connected, and you connect it the same way that you just integrated Granola with Notion. You’ll select connect for Granola, connect for Notion, and you find these connectors by selecting the plus sign, Add connector, Browse connectors, type in Granola, connect to Granola, type in Notion, connect to Notion.
And now, when you’re inside of your Claude chat, you’ll be able to connect with your Notion database and your Granola notes and be able to update those via the MCP connections.
