Notion Library

INFO

If you have a lot of items in your Paperhub library, the sync process may take some time to complete, since the Notion API has rate limits.

My Notion sync takes too long or is incomplete

If you have a lot of items in your Paperhub library, the sync process may take some time to complete. The Notion API has rate limits that may cause the sync to be incomplete.

Rate limits are restrictions on the number of requests you can make to the Notion API within a certain time frame. If you have a large number of items in your Paperhub library, the sync process may exceed these rate limits, causing the sync to be incomplete.

We are working on improving the sync process to handle large libraries more efficiently.
