Agents can now read documents, update task trackers, and access tools without manual setup each time.\n\nAdmins gain **MCP controls** to track which agents are connected, when they were last used, and revoke access per user. The update also expands **MCP connections** to **150+ tools**, enabling agents to pull data from platforms like **HubSpot**, **Stripe**, and **Cloudflare**. Notion’s **Skills API** syncs workflows across **ChatGPT**, **Claude**, and other models, while **column permissions** in databases restrict agent access to specific fields. Synced databases for **GitHub**, **Jira**, and **Salesforce** were rebuilt for speed and reliability. Additionally, Notion added **version history** for agent-driven edits and lets **ChatGPT Plus/Pro** users apply their subscription to Notion’s AI features on **Business** and **Enterprise** plans.","keyPoints":["MCP Connect links agents like Claude or GrokBots to Notion workspaces for shared context","Admins can monitor agent connections and revoke access via MCP controls","New Skills API syncs workflows across ChatGPT, Claude, and other models"],"whyItMatters":"Notion’s integration of agents into its platform reduces friction for teams switching tools or models, while tighter data syncs with tools like HubSpot and Stripe streamline workflows.
