Overview
The purpose of this guide is to help you connect your Notion workspace with HostBuddy so you can easily use and manage your Notion resources and documentation within the platform. This connection allows you to select which Notion pages or documents apply to specific properties, making it simple to share accurate guest manuals, SOPs, and other resources directly through HostBuddy.
Before starting, make sure your Notion workspace is well-organized. Many Notion accounts include both guest-related materials and internal data. To avoid confusion, categorize your guest manuals clearly with proper labels. This ensures that when you connect Notion to HostBuddy, you can easily find and select the correct pages to share with guests, and keep internal pages private.
STEPS
Step 1: Open Integrations Settings
Log in to your HostBuddy account.
Go to Settings > Integrations > Third-Party Apps > Notion
Step 2: Selecting Notion Account
Click the Notion tab under Connected Integrations.
A pop-up window will appear after clicking Notion.
In the pop-up, go to the upper right corner and open the account drop-down menu.
Select the correct Notion account you want to connect to HostBuddy.
Step 3: Select Pages to Sync
Click Select Pages.
You can either use the search bar to find your page or click the drop-down arrow to browse and select pages manually.
After selecting the desired pages, click Allow Access.
This will bring you back to the Third-Party Apps page.
Step 4: Reload and Confirm Connection
Reload the Third-Party Apps page.
You will now see that Notion is connected.
You can start mapping specific Notion pages to properties within HostBuddy.
Step 5: Map Notion Pages to Properties
Select the Notion pages you want to link to which HostBuddy property.
Click Save.
Another good example:
If you have a Notion page called “House Rules,” you can link it to a specific property in HostBuddy. When a guest asks about rules or policies, HostBuddy can automatically reference that page to provide the correct information.
Step 6: Confirm Successful Connection
A green pop-up will appear saying: “Notion Property Mappings Saved Successfully.” This confirms that the integration is active.
Go to your Properties page > Property Setup for the connected property under Resources, you will see the linked Notion page listed.
Click Auto-fill to import relevant details from the linked Notion pages.
