Create a timeline

There are several ways to add timeline view to Notion:

Full-page timeline

• Create a new page in your workspace.
• Click on Timeline in the grayscale menu provided.

• If you want to create a full-page timeline inside another page:
  • On a new line, type /timeline and select Timeline - Full page.
  • Now when you go back to your original page, you'll see this timeline nested inside it.

In-line timeline

You can add an in-line timeline to a page that contains many different types of content.

• On a new line, type /timeline, then hit enter.
