Troubleshooting

Server not starting

• Ensure Node.js is installed and accessible in your PATH
• Verify your notion_token is correct and starts with ntn_
• Check Zed's logs: View > Open Log or run zed --foreground

Can't access certain pages

• Make sure the page/database is shared with your integration
• The integration only has access to explicitly shared content
