An advance method to upload & merge *.csv or *.json files with images to <a href="https://notion.so/" target="_blank">Notion</a> database.

## Core Features

### Advantages over native import

- Merge CSV or JSON with the existing database, using the first column as a key to combine existing rows
- Choose column types manually instead of letting Notion detecting them automatically
- Link or create new entries in relation columns based on their values automatically
- Easily upload files into the designated "Files & Media" column
- Assign a icon for each row for quick identification
- Set a cover or embed an image for each row to enhance visual representation
- Upload image files for covers or icons
- Apply validation options for input data to ensure accuracy
- Automatically analyse and generate captions for images using Hugging Face's open-source AI/ML models

### Disadvantages over native import
 
- Importing each row separately might lead to slower speed
  - To address this, utilise multithreaded upload

## Background

Originally, we developed [csv2notion](https://github.com/vzhd1701/csv2notion) to address the lack of advanced importing support for `*.csv` files in [Notion](https://notion.so). We took inspiration from [Airtable](https://www.airtable.com)’s [CSV import extension](https://support.airtable.com/docs/csv-import-extension).

**CSV2Notion Neo** was created as a spin-off project to address inactivity in the original repository and maintain compatibility with Notion. As Notion changes or updates its backend API periodically, we aim to fix, update and add new features to the tool in a timely manner. Any dependent tools or project that relied on [csv2notion](https://github.com/vzhd1701/csv2notion), can use our **CSV2Notion Neo** tool interchangeably requiring additional augments.

### macOS Release

<details><summary>Privacy & Security</summary>
<p>

For macOS, you have the option of two distinct releases: one packaged within a `.zip` archive and the other in a `.pkg` format. Navigate to the `Privacy & Security` settings and set your preference to `App Store and identified developers`.

<p align="center"> <img src="https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/macOS-privacy.png?raw=true"> </p>

</p>
</details>

Utilise the `CSV2Notion Neo.pkg` installer to install the command-line binary into your system. Upon completion, find the installed binary `csv2notion_neo` located within `/usr/local/bin`. To uninstall, you can utalise this terminal command.

```plain
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/csv2notion_neo
```

<p align="center"> <img src="https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/macOS-installer.png?raw=true"> </p>

### Prerequisite

You must pass a single `*.csv` file for upload. The CSV file must contain at least 2 rows. The first row will be used as a header.

Optionally you can provide a URL to an existing Notion database with the `--url` option; if not provided, the tool will create a new database named after the CSV file. The URL must link to a database view, not a page.

1. To see your Workspace name go to `Settings & members` at the top of the left sidebar. In the window that pops up, click on the `Settings` tab.
2. If your Workspace name is `Acme Inc.`, you are required to provide `--workspace "Acme Inc."` as such.

</p>
</details>


The tool also requires you to provide a `token_v2` cookie for the Notion website through `--token` option.

1. Login to your [Notion](https://www.notion.so/login) account via a web browser.
2. Find and copy the entire `token_v2` value including `v02%3Auser_token_or_cookies%` from your Notion session.

</p>
</details>

**Important notice**. `token_v2` cookie provides complete access to your Notion account. Handle it with caution.

### Upload Speed

Due to API limitations, the upload is performed one row at a time. To speed things up, this tool uses multiple parallel threads. Use the `--max-threads` option to control how fast it will go. Try not to set it too high to avoid rate limiting by the Notion server.

### Duplicate CSV Columns

Notion does not allow the database to have multiple columns with the same name. Therefore CSV columns will be treated as unique. Only the **last** column will be used if CSV has multiple columns with the same name. If you want the program to stop if it finds duplicate columns, use the `--fail-on-duplicate-csv-columns` flag.

### Missing Columns

If a CSV file has columns absent from Notion DB, they will be ignored by default. Use the `--add-missing-columns` flag if you want the tool to add missing columns into Notion DB. Use the `--fail-on-missing-columns` flag if you want the program to stop if it finds a column mismatch.

### Column Types

By default, the tool will try to guess column types based on their content. Alternatively, you can provide a comma-separated list of column types with the `--column-types` option when creating a new database or adding new columns with the `--add-missing-columns` flag. Since the first column in Notion DB is always text, the tool will use the list to set types for the rest of the columns.

By default, new options for `select` and `multi_select` columns are added with default (gray) color. If you want the tool to randomize colors for new options, use the `--randomize-select-colors` flag.

Some column types do not support assigning value to them because the database generates their content automatically. Currently these types include `created_by`, `last_edited_by`, `rollup` and `formula`. If you want the program to stop if it finds such columns in the database, use the `--fail-on-unsettable-columns` flag.

If the tool cannot convert the column value type properly, it will replace it with an empty string. If you want to make sure all values are correctly converted, use the `--fail-on-conversion-error` flag, which will stop execution in case of a conversion error.

The table below describes available codes for `--column-types` and what values are supported by each column type:

<details><summary>Support Table</summary>

### Merging

By default, the tool will add rows to the existing Notion DB. To merge CSV rows with the Notion database, use the `--merge` flag. The first column of CSV and Notion DB will be used as a key to update existing rows with new values. CSV rows that didn't have a match in Notion DB will be added as new.

Since the tool treats rows as unique during merge based on the key column, it will use first found rows with a unique key. To avoid this ambiguity, you might want to validate duplicate row keys with the `--fail-on-duplicates` flag. It will check both CSV and target Notion DB before the merge.

If you want only select columns to be updated, use the `--merge-only-column` option.

If you don't want the tool to add any new rows not already present in the Notion DB during merge, use the `--merge-skip-new` flag.

### Relation Columns

Notion database has a `relation` column type, which allows you to link together entries from different databases. The tool will try to match column data with keys from a linked database.

By default, it will match with the first found row; it will add nothing if it cannot find the match. Use the `--add-missing-relations` flag if you want the tool to create new entries in the linked DB if no match is found. Use the `--fail-on-conversion-error` flag if you want the program to stop if no match is found.

You can also use Notion URLs in columns of this type, and they must belong to the linked DB. The tool will not be able to add missing entries for URLs if you use the `--add-missing-columns` flag.

Since the tool treats rows in the linked DB as unique you can prevent ambiguous matching with the `--fail-on-relation-duplicates` flag. It will check linked DB for duplicate keys and stop the executions if it finds any.

If linked DB is not accessible (linked DB is deleted or your account doesn't have access to it), columns that point to it will be ignored. If you prefer the program to stop in this case, use the `--fail-on-inaccessible-relations` flag.

The tool allows you to add an image to each row with the `--image-column` option. It will use one column from CSV as a data source for the image. It can be either a URL or a file name. The file name must be either an absolute path or a path relative to the CSV file. The tool will upload the file to the Notion server.

By default, the tool will embed an image inside the row page. If you want it to use the image as a page cover, then set the `--image-column-mode` option to `cover`.

Column specified with the `--image-column` option will not be treated as a regular column by default. If you want it to appear in Notion DB, use the `--image-column-keep` flag.

To add custom caption to image block uploaded with `--image-column-mode` set to `block`, use `--image-caption-column` option. To also keep the caption as a Notion DB column, use `--image-caption-column-keep` flag.

### Icons

The tool allows you to add an icon to each row with the `--icon-column` option. The behavior is the same as with `--image-column`; the only difference is that you can use URL, file name, or single emoji.

To also treat `--icon-column` as a regular column, use `--icon-column-keep` flag, similar to `--image-column-keep`.

If you want to set the same icon for each row, use the `--default-icon` option. If both `--icon-column` and `--default-icon` are present, the default icon is used if the row doesn't have anything in the icon column.

### Mandatory Columns

If you want to ensure that specific columns always have value and are not allowed to be empty, then use the `--mandatory-column` option. The program execution will stop if validation fails.

   - Go to the [Hugging Face website](https://huggingface.co/).
   - Click on "Sign Up" in the top right corner.
   - Fill in your details (username, email, password) and complete the registration process.

2. **Log In to Your Account:**
   - If you already have an account, simply log in by clicking "Log In" and entering your credentials.

3. **Navigate to Your Profile Settings:**
   - Once logged in, click on your profile icon in the top right corner of the page.
   - From the dropdown menu, select "Settings."

4. **Access the API Tokens Section:**
   - In the settings menu on the left side of the screen, find and click on "Access Tokens."

5. **Create a New API Token:**
   - In the "Access Tokens" section, you will see an option to create a new token.
   - Click on "New token."

6. **Set Permissions to Write Mode:**
   - Provide a name for your token (e.g., "MyWriteToken").
   - Set the permissions type to "Write" type by selecting the "Write" from the dropdown. This will grant the token write access, allowing you to perform actions that modify data on Hugging Face.

7. **Generate and Copy Your Token:**
   - Click on the "Generate token" button.
   - Your new token will be displayed. Copy it and store it in a secure place, as you will need it to access Hugging Face's API services.

**Note:** Keep your token secure and do not share it publicly, as it grants access to your Hugging Face account and its resources.

We took inspiration from [Airtable](https://www.airtable.com)\u2019s [CSV import extension](https://support.airtable.com/docs/csv-import-extension).\n\n**CSV2Notion Neo** was created as a spin-off project to address inactivity in the original repository and maintain compatibility with Notion. As Notion changes or updates its backend API periodically, we aim to fix, update and add new features to the tool in a timely manner. Any dependent tools or project that relied on [csv2notion](https://github.com/vzhd1701/csv2notion), can use our **CSV2Notion Neo** tool interchangeably requiring additional augments.\n\n## System Requirements\n\n### Linux (x64)\n- Operating System: Linux (64-bit)\n- Architecture: x64\n- Dependencies: None (ensure basic Linux shell tools are available)\n\n### macOS (ARM64)\n- Operating System: macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later\n- Architecture: ARM64 (Apple Silicon)\n- Dependencies: None\n\n### Windows (x64)\n- Operating System: Windows 10 or later (64-bit)\n- Architecture: x64\n- Dependencies: None\n\n## Installation\n\n### Pre-compiled Binary (Recommended)\n\nDownload the latest release of the latest binary release [here](https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/releases).\n\n### With [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) (Recommended for macOS)\n\n```bash\n$ brew install TheAcharya/homebrew-tap/csv2notion-neo\n```\n```bash\n$ brew uninstall --cask csv2notion-neo\n```\n\n### With PIP\n\n```bash\n$ pip install --user csv2notion_neo\n```\n\n**Python 3.7 or later required.**\n\n### From source\n\nThis project uses [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) for dependency management and packaging. You will have to install it first. See [poetry official documentation](https://python-poetry.org/docs/) for instructions.\n\n```shell\n$ git clone https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo.git\n$ cd csv2notion_neo/\n$ poetry install --no-dev\n$ poetry run csv2notion_neo\n```\n\n## Guide\n\n```plain\n$ csv2notion_neo --help\nusage: csv2notion_neo [-h] --token TOKEN [--url URL] [OPTION]...

Release\n\n<details><summary>Privacy & Security</summary>\n<p>\n\nFor macOS, you have the option of two distinct releases: one packaged within a `.zip` archive and the other in a `.pkg` format. Navigate to the `Privacy & Security` settings and set your preference to `App Store and identified developers`.\n\n<p align=\"center\"> <img src=\"https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/macOS-privacy.png?raw=true\"> </p>\n\n</p>\n</details>\n\nUtilise the `CSV2Notion Neo.pkg` installer to install the command-line binary into your system. Upon completion, find the installed binary `csv2notion_neo` located within `/usr/local/bin`. To uninstall, you can utalise this terminal command.\n\n```plain\nsudo rm /usr/local/bin/csv2notion_neo\n```\n\n<p align=\"center\"> <img src=\"https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/macOS-installer.png?raw=true\"> </p>\n\n### Prerequisite\n\nYou must pass a single `*.csv` file for upload. The CSV file must contain at least 2 rows. The first row will be used as a header.\n\nOptionally you can provide a URL to an existing Notion database with the `--url` option; if not provided, the tool will create a new database named after the CSV file. The URL must link to a database view, not a page.\n\n<details><summary>Obtaining Database URL</summary>\n<p>\n\n<p align=\"center\"> <img src=\"https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/database_url.png?raw=true\"> </p>\n\n</p>\n</details>\n\n<details><summary>Obtaining Workspace Name</summary>\n<p>\n\n<p align=\"center\"> <img src=\"https://www.notion.so/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,width=3840,quality=100/https://images.ctfassets.net/spoqsaf9291f/36DSq2EcSv3Q9uUUnRXdMo/9f8e7900ef53569a84c8625097bcc271/Workspace_settings_-_hero.png\"> </p>\n\n1. To see your Workspace name go to `Settings & members` at the top of the left sidebar. In the window that pops up, click on the `Settings` tab.\n2. If your Workspace name is `Acme Inc.`, you are required to provide `--workspace \"Acme Inc.\"` as such.\n\n</p>\n</details>\n\n\nThe tool also requires you to provide a `token_v2` cookie for the Notion website through `--token` option.\n\n1. Login to your [Notion](https://www.notion.so/login) account via a web browser.\n2. Find and copy the entire `token_v2` value including `v02%3Auser_token_or_cookies%` from your Notion session.\n\n<details><summary>Obtaining Notion Session Token (Safari)</summary>\n<p>\n\nEnable Web Inspector\n\n- If you don\u2019t see the Develop menu in the menu bar, choose Safari, Settings, click Advanced, then select \u201cShow features for web developers\u201d.\n- Press `\u2325 + \u2318 + i` to show Web Inspector\n\n<p align=\"center\"> <img src=\"https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/notion_token_safari.gif?raw=true\"> </p>\n\n</p>\n</details>\n\n<details><summary>Obtaining Notion Session Token (Brave, Chrome or Edge)</summary>\n<p>\n\n- Press \u2325 + \u2318 + i (Mac) or  Shift + Crtl + i (Win) to show Developer Tools.\n- Go to Application tab.\n- Copy and obtain your token_v2 value.\n\n<p align=\"center\"> <img src=\"https://github.com/TheAcharya/csv2notion-neo/blob/master/assets/notion_token_brave.png?raw=true\"> </p>\n\n</p>\n</details>\n\n**Important notice**. `token_v2` cookie provides complete access to your Notion account. Handle it with caution.\n\n### Upload Speed\n\nDue to API limitations, the upload is performed one row at a time. To speed things up, this tool uses multiple parallel threads. Use the `--max-threads` option to control how fast it will go. Try not to set it too high to avoid rate limiting by the Notion server.\n\n### Duplicate CSV Columns\n\nNotion does not allow the database to have multiple columns with the same name. Therefore CSV columns will be treated as unique. Only the **last** column will be used if CSV has multiple columns with the same name. If you want the program to stop if it finds duplicate columns, use the `--fail-on-duplicate-csv-columns` flag.\n\n### Missing Columns\n\nIf a CSV file has columns absent from Notion DB, they will be ignored by default. Use the `--add-missing-columns` flag if you want the tool to add missing columns into Notion DB. Use the `--fail-on-missing-columns` flag if you want the program to stop if it finds a column mismatch.\n\n### Column Types\n\nBy default, the tool will try to guess column types based on their content. Alternatively, you can provide a comma-separated list of column types with the `--column-types` option when creating a new database or adding new columns with the `--add-missing-columns` flag. Since the first column in Notion DB is always text, the tool will use the list to set types for the rest of the columns.\n\nBy default, new options for `select` and `multi_select` columns are added with default (gray) color. If you want the tool to randomize colors for new options, use the `--randomize-select-colors` flag.\n\nSome column types do not support assigning value to them because the database generates their content automatically. Currently these types include `created_by`, `last_edited_by`, `rollup` and `formula`. If you want the program to stop if it finds such columns in the database, use the `--fail-on-unsettable-columns` flag.\n\nIf the tool cannot convert the column value type properly, it will replace it with an empty string. If you want to make sure all values are correctly converted, use the `--fail-on-conversion-error` flag, which will stop execution in case of a conversion error.\n\nThe table below describes available codes for `--column-types` and what values are supported by each column type:\n\n<details><summary>Support Table</summary>\n<p>\n\n| Column Type<br />Name   | Column Type<br />Code   | Supported Values | Multiple Values<br />(Comma Separated) |\n| ----------------------- | ----------------------- | ---------------- | -------------------------------------- |\n| **Basic**               |                         |                  |                                        |\n| Text                    | `text`                  | string           | \u274c                                     |\n| Number                  | `number`                | numerical        | \u274c                                     |\n| Select                  | `select`                | string           | \u274c                                     |\n| Multi-select            | `multi_select`          | string           | \u2705                                     |\n| Status                  | `status`                | string           | \u274c                                     |\n| Date                    | `date`                  | any date format  | \u2705 (range)                             |\n| Person                  | `person`                | username, email  | \u2705                                     |\n| Files & media           | `file`                  | file name, URL   | \u2705                                     |\n| Checkbox                | `checkbox`              | `true`, `false`  | \u274c                                     |\n| URL                     | `url`                   | string           | \u274c                                     |\n| Email                   | `email`                 | string           | \u274c                                     |\n| Phone                   | `phone_number`          | string           | \u274c                                     |\n| **Advanced**            |                         |                  |                                        |\n| Formula                 | `formula`               | `---`            | `---`                                  |\n| Relation                | `---`                   | key, Notion URL  | \u2705                                     |\n| Rollup                  | `rollup`                | `---`            | `---`                                  |\n| Created time            | `created_time`          | any date format  | \u274c                                     |\n| Created by              | `created_by`            | `---`            | `---`                                  |\n| Last edited time        | `last_edited_time`      | any date format  | \u274c                                     |\n| Last edited by          | `last_edited_by`        | `---`            | `---`                                  |\n\n</p>\n</details>\n\n### Merging\n\nBy default, the tool will add rows to the existing Notion DB. To merge CSV rows with the Notion database, use the `--merge` flag. The first column of CSV and Notion DB will be used as a key to update existing rows with new values. CSV rows that didn't have a match in Notion DB will be added as new.\n\nSince the tool treats rows as unique during merge based on the key column, it will use first found rows with a unique key. To avoid this ambiguity, you might want to validate duplicate row keys with the `--fail-on-duplicates` flag. It will check both CSV and target Notion DB before the merge.\n\nIf you want only select columns to be updated, use the `--merge-only-column` option.\n\nIf you don't want the tool to add any new rows not already present in the Notion DB during merge, use the `--merge-skip-new` flag.\n\n### Relation Columns\n\nNotion database has a `relation` column type, which allows you to link together entries from different databases. The tool will try to match column data with keys from a linked database.\n\nBy default, it will match with the first found row; it will add nothing if it cannot find the match. Use the `--add-missing-relations` flag if you want the tool to create new entries in the linked DB if no match is found. Use the `--fail-on-conversion-error` flag if you want the program to stop if no match is found.\n\nYou can also use Notion URLs in columns of this type, and they must belong to the linked DB. The tool will not be able to add missing entries for URLs if you use the `--add-missing-columns` flag.\n\nSince the tool treats rows in the linked DB as unique you can prevent ambiguous matching with the `--fail-on-relation-duplicates` flag. It will check linked DB for duplicate keys and stop the executions if it finds any.\n\nIf linked DB is not accessible (linked DB is deleted or your account doesn't have access to it), columns that point to it will be ignored. If you prefer the program to stop in this case, use the `--fail-on-inaccessible-relations` flag.\n\n### Cover Image & Embedded Image\n\nThe tool allows you to add an image to each row with the `--image-column` option. It will use one column from CSV as a data source for the image. It can be either a URL or a file name. The file name must be either an absolute path or a path relative to the CSV file. The tool will upload the file to the Notion server.\n\nBy default, the tool will embed an image inside the row page. If you want it to use the image as a page cover, then set the `--image-column-mode` option to `cover`.\n\nColumn specified with the `--image-column` option will not be treated as a regular column by default. If you want it to appear in Notion DB, use the `--image-column-keep` flag.\n\nTo add custom caption to image block uploaded with `--image-column-mode` set to `block`, use `--image-caption-column` option. To also keep the caption as a Notion DB column, use `--image-caption-column-keep` flag.\n\n### Icons\n\nThe tool allows you to add an icon to each row with the `--icon-column` option. The behavior is the same as with `--image-column`; the only difference is that you can use URL, file name, or single emoji.\n\nTo also treat `--icon-column` as a regular column, use `--icon-column-keep` flag, similar to `--image-column-keep`.\n\nIf you want to set the same icon for each row, use the `--default-icon` option. If both `--icon-column` and `--default-icon` are present, the default icon is used if the row doesn't have anything in the icon column.\n\n### Mandatory Columns\n\nIf you want to ensure that specific columns always have value and are not allowed to be empty, then use the `--mandatory-column` option. The program execution will stop if validation fails.\n\n### AI/ML Options (Hugging Face)\n\nHugging Face is a prominent AI company known for its contributions to natural language processing (NLP) through its comprehensive open-source platform.
