Gmail to Notion Chrome Extension: Save Emails to Notion Instantly

Transform your email workflow with the ultimate Gmail to Notion integration. Stop wasting time copying and pasting emails—save them directly to your Notion workspace with AI-powered extraction, customizable databases, batch operations, and smart automation. Perfect for busy professionals who use Gmail and Notion daily.

Why You Need Gmail to Notion Integration

Are you tired of manually copying emails from Gmail to Notion? As someone who manages everything in Notion—tasks, projects, knowledge base, and more—I was spending 10-15 minutes daily just transferring email content. Every important email required the same tedious workflow:

Copy the email subject → Paste into Notion
Copy sender information → Paste into Notion
Copy the email date → Format and paste
Create a link back to Gmail → Manually construct the URL
Copy email content → Clean up formatting and paste

By the time I finished, I'd lost my focus and wasted valuable time. And the worst part? I often lost crucial metadata like email threads, labels, and attachments.

The solution? A seamless Gmail to Notion Chrome extension that does all of this automatically with a single click.
