It is finding that post again when your research, client brief, or draft already lives in Notion. Copying the text, author, link, and media by hand works twice. It does not work as a habit. A Notion sync closes that gap. LinkedMash imports the saved post, then creates a page in the Notion database you connect. New saves continue to arrive without another export. ![LinkedMash Notion integration connected to Rams Space with 1,543 saved posts synced](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/marketing/export-integrations/real/notion-connected.webp) _The integration page keeps the connected workspace, recipe, sync count, and last sync visible._ **Use Notion when** Each saved post needs room for notes, research, a brief, or a draft. If you mainly need rows to sort and calculate, [Google Sheets](/blog/linkedin-saved-posts-to-google-sheets) or [Airtable](/blog/linkedin-saved-posts-to-airtable) is usually the cleaner destination. ## What LinkedMash creates in Notion The LinkedMash template is not an empty database. Its required properties match the sync: **Post**, **Author**, **Post Link**, **Tags**, **App Imported Time**, and **Post Created At**, plus internal IDs used to keep the connection reliable. The page body holds the full post and available media. - **Post** uses the first line as the page title, so the database remains scannable. - **Author** links back to the LinkedIn profile, while **Post Link** opens the original post and its comments. - **Tags** carries the labels already applied in LinkedMash. - **App Imported Time** and **Post Created At** are different. One records when LinkedMash imported it; the other records when the author published it. - Images, a video URL, or a document URL can appear as content inside the page when that media is available. ![Live Notion database showing 1,543 LinkedIn saved posts with tags, authors, dates and source links](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/marketing/export-integrations/real/notion-database-sample.webp) _A real synced database: titles stay readable, authors and source links remain clickable, and LinkedMash labels arrive as tags._ **See the destination before connecting** Open the [live LinkedMash Notion sample](https://ramspersonal.notion.site/3a4a9a8a2541815287ebd139f5bfdbef?v=676a9a8a2541820d8445081ab7940420) to inspect the database views, properties, authors, tags, dates, and original LinkedIn links. ## Connect LinkedIn saved posts to Notion 1. Import your saved posts with the [LinkedMash browser extension](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/linkedmash/ldadjiiepooimpnjagjidpklcpbnamop). The Notion pages are created from this imported library, not fetched by Notion from LinkedIn. ![LinkedMash showing a completed LinkedIn saved-post import](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/blog/import-complete.jpg) _Finish the import before creating the sync._ 2. Open **[Notion Sync](/integrations/sync/notion)** and start the connection. In Notion, choose **Use a template provided by the developer** so the destination has the properties LinkedMash writes. ![Notion permission step for using the LinkedMash database template](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/integrations/notion/onboard-step2.png) _Authorize the template through Notion instead of copying tokens or passwords._ 3. Choose the workspace and database that should receive the posts. Keep the required synced properties, then add your own views and workflow columns beside them. ![LinkedMash Notion destination database with saved posts, authors and tags](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/marketing/export-integrations/real/notion-database-sample.webp) _The database can hold your existing imported history before new saves begin arriving._ 4. Return to LinkedMash and let the first sync run. After that, new matching saves are added in the background. Use the integration page to refresh, reconnect, or change the connected database. ![Connected LinkedMash Notion recipe with the latest sync time and synced post count](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/marketing/export-integrations/real/notion-connected.webp) _The connected screen confirms where posts are going and when the recipe last ran._ ## Make it a working research database The destination is useful only when work happens on the other side. Add your own **Status**, **Why I saved this**, and **Project** properties. LinkedMash will keep writing its required fields, while those columns hold your judgement. - **Content research:** group by Author, then write the angle you would borrow without copying the post. - **Client research:** add a Project relation and send only relevant posts into each client view. - **Team reading queue:** use Status values such as Inbox, Discuss, Used, and Archive. - **Idea development:** turn the page body into notes or a draft while retaining the source link. ## What stays attached to each saved post - **Readable post text** lives in the page body, instead of forcing you back to a bookmark URL to remember why you saved it. - **Author and original LinkedIn links** remain clickable, so you can revisit the profile, post, comments, or article source. - **LinkedMash labels become Notion tags**, which makes topic, client, campaign, and format views possible immediately. - **Images, video references, document links, and article links** stay with the page when LinkedMash can retrieve them from the saved post. - **Published and imported dates** remain separate, so you can distinguish when the author posted from when you added it to your library. ## Filter by author, label, or keyword A recipe prevents a useful Notion workspace becoming another unfiltered dump. Send one author to a competitor database, one label to a client database, or one keyword cluster to a research database. Prefix a keyword with `!` to exclude it. ![LinkedMash recipe builder filtering Notion saved-post sync by the keyword Claude](https://www.linkedmash.com/assets/marketing/export-integrations/real/notion-filter-recipe.webp) _Recipes can combine author, label, and keyword filters before the Notion connection runs._ ## Limits to understand before you connect - This is a continuous destination sync, not a Notion backup file. Keep a [CSV](/blog/download-linkedin-saved-posts-csv), [JSON](/blog/linkedin-saved-posts-json-export), or [PDF](/blog/linkedin-saved-posts-pdf-archive) snapshot if you also need a portable copy. - Renaming or deleting required template properties can stop the sync. Add your own properties alongside them instead. - Media is linked or embedded from the URLs available in the imported post. A source that later blocks access can affect how that media renders. - LinkedMash can write the saved-post record, but it cannot decide your Status, note, or research conclusion for you. > The sync removes the filing work. Your database still needs a reason for each post to be there. **Connect the database** Import your saved posts, authorize the correct Notion database, and let new LinkedIn saves file themselves with their source context intact. You can also [preview the live sample database](https://ramspersonal.notion.site/3a4a9a8a2541815287ebd139f5bfdbef?v=676a9a8a2541820d8445081ab7940420) first.

No, it is continuous. Connect Notion once, pick a database, and every new LinkedIn post you save flows in automatically in the background. ### Does it bring across images and video? The page includes the post text, author and original link. When a supported media URL is available, the page body adds the image, video URL or document URL as embedded content. ### Can I sync only some of my saved posts? Yes, with a filter recipe. Match on author, label or keyword, and exclude a term by prefixing it with an exclamation mark. Several recipes can run side by side. ### What if my team does not use Notion? Google Sheets, Airtable and Miro have their own native syncs, and the whole library also downloads as CSV, JSON or PDF. ### Can I import the LinkedIn saved posts I already have? Yes. Import the existing library with the LinkedMash extension before connecting Notion. The initial sync can populate the database from that history, then future saves continue to arrive. ### Which Notion properties does LinkedMash create? The database includes the post title and readable body, author, original post link, LinkedMash labels as tags, published date, import date, and internal identifiers used by the sync. Available images, video references, documents, and article links remain with the page. ### Can I add my own Notion views and properties? Yes. Keep the required LinkedMash properties intact, then add Status, Project, Notes, Owner, relations, formulas, and any views your workflow needs. ### Can I preview a Notion database before connecting? Yes. The destination page links to a live LinkedMash Notion sample showing synced titles, authors, tags, dates, and source links.
