How to make a request to Notion API using Python

Below is a Python script that uses the requests library to interact with the Notion API and read a specific page. This script automates the process described earlier.

Prerequisites:

1. Notion Account: Ensure you have a Notion account and a page you want to read.
2. API Token: Obtain an integration token from Notion by creating an integration at Notion Integrations.
3. Install the requests library if you haven't already:

pip install requests

Python Script:

import requests

def get_notion_page(page_id, token):
    url = f"<https://api.notion.com/v1/pages/{page_id}>"

    headers = {
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {token}",
        "Notion-Version": "2022-06-28",
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    }

    response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

    if response.status_code == 200:
        print("Page details:")
        print(response.json())
    else:
        print(f"Failed to retrieve page. Status code: {response.status_code}")
        print(response.text)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Replace these variables with your actual values
    page_id = "your_page_id"
    token = "your_integration_token"

    get_notion_page(page_id, token)

How to Use:

1. Replace "your_page_id" with the actual ID of the Notion page you want to read.
2. Replace "your_integration_token" with your actual Notion integration token.
3. Run the script.

Running the Script:

Save the script to a file, for example notion_read_page.py, and run it using Python:

python notion_read_page.py

The script will send a GET request to the Notion API and print the details of the specified page.
