How it works

1

Create your database in Notion

If you already have your database created in Notion, you can skip this step.
On your Notion page, type /database. Name your database and add a column for each question. Set the property type and, if using Select or Multi-select, enter the answer options.Screenshot of the Notion form creation page

Connect your Fillout form to Notion

In the side menu under Fillout, open My forms and create a form with New form. Choose to Connect to Notion.
Choose how to get started dialog with Build with AI in Zite, Blank form, Connect and Import existing forms
Under Pick an integration, choose Notion. Then click Connect to Notion and sign in to your Notion account.Select pages you’d like to allow Fillout access to. You can add and remove pages to this integration anytime in your Fillout dashboard.Screenshot of the Notion form creation page
A form can only connect to one database and table at a time. However, Google Sheets is an exception because each new connection creates a new sheet.
Then, choose the Database you’ll be using with your form.Screenshot of the Notion form creation page
Don’t see your database in the dropdown list? Check you have connected to the correct workspace and granted access to the page where your database is.

To update your Fillout form after editing your Notion database, click the refresh icon on the left-hand panel.
To connect a new question to your Notion database, or check an existing connection, click a field’s settings icon and go to Connected in the right-hand panel.Screenshot 2025-11-12 at 1.24.30 PM copy.pngAlternatively, you can manually map fields in the Integrate page.You can also add content to the body of a Notion page. See this help article.

Publish & Share

Once you’ve finished creating your form, Publish and share it. Form responses will now automatically populate inside your Notion database.
Fillout also has features like branching and conditional hide/appear logic, so you can show each respondent only the questions that apply to them.

​
Notion properties you can’t fill in

Person and Last edited by properties can’t be used in Fillout forms. To record a person, add a Select property with their names in Notion and map that instead. It saves the name as text, not as a Notion user. Formula, Rollup, Created by, Created time and Last edited time properties are read-only. Respondents can’t fill them in, but you can show their values on update forms with answer piping.

​
Specify a condition

You can run your integration only when a specific condition is met. Check out this guide.
