Connect Airtable or Notion as a Data Source

In your workspace sidebar, click New to open the New dataset picker, then choose Airtable or Notion from the available integrations.

You'll land on the import page for that source.

The first time, click Connect to Airtable or Connect to Notion. ChartBrick redirects you to the provider to grant read-only access, then brings you back.

For Notion, you choose which pages and databases the integration can access during authorization — share whatever you want to chart before continuing. Once connected, the account is remembered for this workspace; you can add more accounts later and pick between them in the Account selector.

With an account selected, choose your data:

• Airtable — pick the Base, then the Table (the table list loads after you choose a base). Both dropdowns are searchable. If the table has saved views, an optional View dropdown appears.
• Notion — pick the Database. Only databases you shared with the integration appear. If one is missing, share it in Notion, then click Reload — Notion's index can take a few seconds, and ChartBrick keeps retrying for a short while right after you connect.

Click Import. ChartBrick reads the rows, detects column types (numbers, dates, text), snapshots the data so charts load fast, and takes you to the new dataset.

On the dataset page, click Blank chart to start from scratch, or Generate with AI to get charts suggested from your columns.

The dataset is a point-in-time snapshot, so later edits in Airtable or Notion don't appear automatically. Click Update data on the dataset page to pull the latest rows.

Go to Settings → Connections to see every connected source and the datasets and charts using it. Only workspace admins can manage connections.

Each connection has a refresh icon — Manage shared pages for Notion or Re-authorize Airtable for Airtable — to re-grant or adjust access, and a trash icon to delete it. If a token expires, the connection shows a red Reconnect required badge; use the same icon to reconnect. Deleting a connection keeps the data in datasets you already created, but they can no longer refresh from the source.
