Share Content with Connection

The connection can only access pages and databases you explicitly share with it. You need to share each top-level page or database that contains data you want Parable to sync.For each top-level page or database:
  1. Open it in Notion
  2. Click ••• (three dots) menu in the top right
  3. Click Add connections
  4. Search for and select Parable
Child pages automatically inherit access from their parent. Share at the highest level that covers the content you need — for example, sharing a team workspace page gives the connection access to all pages nested underneath it.
Any page or database not explicitly shared (or nested under a shared parent) will be invisible to the connection.
