Embeds, bookmarks & link mentions

1. Click the + that appears to the left when you hover over a new line. Choose Embed or one of the common embed types listed above. Press enter.

2. In the menu that appears, paste the content's URL or embed link.

   • You can also use /embed to upload and display your own image, audio, video, or file. Just select Upload and choose the file from your computer.

Notion allows you to embed external content from over 1,900 domains via the Iframely service. This enables you to bring videos, screencasts, slide decks, images, audio, code repositories, and more into your Notion pages, so that you can keep all context in one place. As needed to display embedded content, Iframely and the embedded app may receive the IP address of the content's viewers.

Here is a selection of some of the commonly used apps that you can embed into your Notion pages:

While pretty much any online content can be embedded on a page, Notion also has preconfigured embed blocks for some of the commonly used media types (e.g., File, Image, PDF, Video) and apps (CodePen, Loom, Miro, Tweet).

These can be added specifically from the / menu or by clicking + in the left margin that appears when you hover over a new line. Try it out by typing /tweet to embed a Tweet, or /maps to embed an interactive Google Map.

In Notion, you can embed:

• HTML files

• PDF files

• Audio

• Video

• Images

In most cases, Notion will recognize an embeddable URL when you paste it into your page. You can also paste copied images.

1. Paste the embed URL provided by the content's source.

   • For example, this should start with https not <iframe.

2. In the menu that appears, select Paste as bookmark.

Most embeds can be resized to suit their content and the format of your page.

• Hover your mouse over your embed, then drag the black bars that appear on the sides.

• Use drag-and-drop to move embeds around your page. Hover over the embed in question, then use the ⋮⋮ icon that appears as a handle to drag it.

• You can also drag and drop embeds into columns.

It's easy to link back to where the embed came from.

1. Hover over your embed and click Original. Your browser will take you to its source.

2. You can also hover over the embed and click ⋮⋮ on the left or ••• at its top right corner.

3. Select View Original and your browser will open to the source page.

As your project evolves, you'll likely need to update embedded content. You can replace both content you've embedded from elsewhere online, or content you've uploaded in order to embed and display it on your page.

1. Hover over the embed and click ⋮⋮ on the left or ••• at its top right. Choose Replace.

2. When prompted, choose Embed link or Upload.

3. Paste the new URL from the online service, or select the new file.

Bookmarks are one way to incorporate web links into your Notion page. They appear like distinct blocks with the page title, description and URL displayed.

1. Copy and paste the URL.

2. In the menu that appears, select Paste as bookmark.

Link mentions are another way to incorporate links into your Notion page. They appear inline, similar to text, and are more subtle than bookmarks.

1. Copy and paste the URL.

2. In the menu that appears, select Paste as mention.
