Key features
Any Database
Use your existing Notion database as it is. Just pick the database and choose which columns hold names, emails, and phone numbers.
Two-Way Sync
Changes made in Notion or in the connected app are synced automatically in both directions. You can also set up a one-way sync.
All Your Columns
Sync text, numbers, dates, checkboxes, selects, multi-selects, URLs, emails, phone numbers, and rollups, not just basic contact details.
Smart Name Handling
Use a single Name column or separate first and last name columns. SyncPenguin splits or combines names so they fit the other app.
Multiple Emails & Phones
Map separate columns for work, home, and other emails, and for work, mobile, and other phone numbers.
Affordable & Scalable
With SyncPenguin you only pay for changes to your data, regardless of how many contacts you initially have, or will have in the future.
Supported fields
Things to note
- Your Notion database needs a 'Last edited time' column. SyncPenguin uses it to detect changes, and you can add one in Notion in a few clicks.
- Each connection syncs one Notion database. To sync several databases, add a separate connection or sync for each one.
- The database must be shared with SyncPenguin when you connect your Notion account. Otherwise it won't appear in the list.
- At least one name column and one email column must be mapped so contacts can be matched reliably.
- Formula, relation, person, files & media, and status columns can't currently be synced.
- Rollup columns can be read and synced to other apps as text, but can't be updated from other apps.
- Text is synced as plain text, so formatting such as bold, links, or mentions isn't carried over.
- For date columns that contain a date range, only the start date is synced.
- Up to three emails (work, home, other) and three phone numbers (work, mobile, other) can be synced, each mapped to its own column.
- Changes are picked up on regular sync intervals rather than instantly.
- If you only map a single full name column, the first word is used as the first name and the rest as the last name.
