How to sync your Screvi highlights to Notion automatically

How Notion Sync Works

Screvi can sync all your highlights to a Notion database. The sync is one-way — highlights flow from Screvi to Notion. Each source (book, article, etc.) becomes a Notion page, with your highlights as quote blocks inside it.

Setup

  1. Go to Integrations > Notion Sync in the web app
  2. Click Connect Notion
  3. Authorize Screvi in the Notion popup
  4. Screvi automatically creates a "Screvi Highlights" database in your workspace
  5. Click Sync Now to run your first sync

What Gets Synced

Each source or article becomes a page in the Notion database with:

  • Title — book or article name
  • Author — author name
  • Category — Book, Article, Tweet, Podcast, YouTube, PDF, or Personal Note
  • Highlights count — number of highlights
  • URL — link to the original source
  • Last Synced — timestamp of the last sync

Inside each page, highlights appear as quote blocks. Notes appear as callout blocks, and favorites are marked with a star.

Auto-Sync

Toggle Daily Auto-Sync to have Screvi sync new highlights to Notion every day automatically. The sync only runs if you have new highlights since the last sync.

Manual Sync

Click Sync Now at any time to trigger an immediate sync. Only new highlights are synced — existing Notion pages are updated, not recreated.

Reset & Disconnect

  • Reset sync data — clears tracking so the next sync re-exports everything (Notion pages are not deleted)
  • Disconnect — removes the connection. Your Notion pages remain untouched.
