How to join your team that’s using Notion
If you’re joining a team that is already using Notion, here’s your guide to getting started. We take a look at some pages, databases, and features to get you oriented.
This video provides new users with a tour of a team workspace on Notion.
The sidebar holds teamspaces with top-level pages, which are the highest-level homes for information.
Top-level pages boast sub-pages, where teams can store all the information they want.
Every Notion page is composed of content blocks, which could be text, callout blocks, videos, or embeds.
Notion databases are highly customizable, and can store complex information that can be displayed in different ways.
Notion is a place where things get done. You can tag team members in comments or in the body of a page for specific feedback.
When someone mentions you in a workspace, you'll be notified in your
Inbox, located towards the top of your sidebar.Not all pages in a team's workspace are shared with everyone, as specific sharing settings may be applied to pages.
You can use the
Quick Findfunctionality to find a particular doc or database, as well as ourQ&Afeature, powered by AI.
Your sidebar just got better
While the information presented in this guide is still useful, some elements of the sidebar have been updated — making sharing with the right groups easier. Learn about how teamspaces give every team a home for their important work.
