Notion Training: Advanced

After you master the basics of working in Notion, there's many more powerful features to discover! In this video, you'll learn:
00:00:12 → What are databases?
00:02:51 → Using database views to stay organized
00:06:04 → Add content to databases faster with templates
00:08:07 → Connect databases with relation & rollup
00:10:59 → Using Linked Databases to create advanced dashboards

[@oussamatarhi6454]

The fact that all this features are in a single app is MIND BLOWING

[@mathtuition9948]

This app is from the future ,It is simply amazing ! Complexity tuned into simplicity. Hats off for this app . Thank you Notion team. I can see Notion will replace microsoft apps in the future if you guys keep refining it, but its already on its way, great job !

[@kametayturar]

It can be better with password protection

[@ThePhiloctopus]

I just had a look at Notion's API and their rate limits and response sizes alone will mean they will never replace Microsoft power platform. The capability of notion is a tiny fraction of what you can do on power platform and that is unlikely to ever change because Microsoft is big enough to always be able to throw just enough resources to stay one step ahead.

[@DustinMillerPolyInnovator]

The fact that every entry is it's own page I think is an undermarketed selling point. Honestly was the number one reason I moved my entire life over to notion.

[@xaneriaann]

I agree. My entire family, business, and personal life is in Notion. That being said, the fact that I can't create a database-like list that can be quantified (such as a task database where I can track how many are complete vs how many remain) that can be implemented into a template makes project management for myself difficult. I have some projects that have 64+ steps and I'd rather not have to create each of those steps, EVERY TIME I create that project, in my master task list. I don't know how complicated it would be to add a function that can count your /todo list ✔, but it is a dream.

[@LigeVerloR]

@@xaneriaann I want to say this might be possible. Have you looked in to August Bradley's youtube videos?

[@xaneriaann]

@@LigeVerloR I have. I am an avid watcher. Unfortunately, I'm not able to clearly explain in text what I'm looking for but unfortunately, that's not something I've seen be possible. Thank you!

[@xeasonchan9401]

I wish Notion would have Mind Map View, so we can organize the pages and texts in a more intuitive way. And I think it's not really hard to do, we could simply add "parent" and "SubPages" property in a page, and Notion could show it like a tree data structure.

[@dmy_tro]

try roam research

[@DrJohnPollard]

Totally agree on this one. Surprised it's not there already.

[@DavidChurcheese]

The dev team can't even implement an offline mode or a way to change very base global default settings like region and date formats. So I guess you're going to be (very) patient. :(

[@DrJohnPollard]

@@DavidChurcheese I've moved on to Coda. Seems way better on all levels including a dev team that is working.

[@DavidChurcheese]

@@DrJohnPollard Yeah I'm thinking about doing this too... Notion seemed SO promising and they did so much advertising through influencers that I was lured and started using it (thankfully I didn't pay for premium). But yeah, now I feel like I want an app that isn't in constant Beta testing...

[@devw538]

It's crazy how much I love this youtube channel.

[@rkai3]

It is great that even the developers of notion use notion to organise how Notion improves.

[@Grandspb]

This video is like the final touch to the training that now enables us to create whatever we want with Notion. Easy to grasp, conscise and incredibly helpful!

[@mosijahi3096]

I’d like to see Notion get better in the mobile, there seems to be a priority to desk top. Notion could at least allow the Desktop version to be accessed via iOS through the web browser, Coda does so I don’t understand why Notion stopped doing it.

[@BurOnOz]

Perfect Video. After trying all other consumers' educational videos. This video made complexity into simplicity for me! Thank You so much, I liked the style of the author.

[@Muhammed.Yaseen]

I was taking notes using Notion for my Salesforce training, and I just realised that they have so much in common!!

[@nw2kr8bc3t]

Personal thanks to the notion team for making this amazing app and giving out all of this amazing information on how to use it. I have been using it for a couple of days and it already saved me time and brought out the creative juice's in my writing. All hail the database!!!

[@evraya1]

Oh my, I just listed the fourth item explained in the video as a question and here you got it. Notion is a reflection of synopsis of your brain, this is right as Google is. Humanity celebrates its existence nowadays. Be blessed for bringing this app from the area of ideas

[@raphaelvordermark9448]

I love that notion is extremely flexible but also incredible easy to use

[@CCoburn3]

I paid for a class on Udemy to learn Notion. The class is the top-ranked class on the subject. But I've learned more in these two videos than in his entire (expensive) class. Good job!

[@carmenx4236]

Her voice is so soothing and thank you for the informative video!

[@bigma100]

Wow, I'm absolutely blown away by this incredible tool! 😍 It's so versatile and adaptable, making it a perfect fit for almost any situation or task. I also wanted to take a moment to appreciate the Notion KZbin channel. It's undeniably the best channel out there, and this teacher's voice is just so captivating and beautiful! 🙌 Their way of explaining things makes learning a delightful experience, and I can't thank Notion enough for providing such valuable content. Keep up the fantastic work, Notion team! You're making a positive impact on so many lives with your amazing tools and educational content. I can't wait to see what you have in store for us next! 💯🎉

[@joxe_rg]

Awesome. Best note app I have ever seen. Words cannot express my excitement.

[@shaileshjaiswal3434]

Great video! Can you make a video on how to use Notion for academic research?

[@silviamadrisa]

Yes! For some reason the templates for students and academics are the same, but they are really for students. Would love to see some tutorial for academic research that includes managing a team and RAs, not just the literature search.

[@Shazlys]

Incredibly helpful video. Thank you.

[@TheRandomvgshow]

Loved it I need to play more with roll ups to understand better

[@richiekho8938]

Some random tips: There are other ways to quickly set the block type: 1. `1.` can quickly add a numbered list block. 2. `*` can quickly add an unordered list block. 3. `#` can quickly add a Heading 1 block. 4. `##` can quickly add a Heading 2 block. 5. `###` can quickly add a Heading 3 block. 6. Triple backtick can quickly add a code block. 7. `@` can quickly mention a person. There are also other ways to set the styles of a text : 1. ``text`` will style 'text' as a code. 2. `*text*` will style 'text' as *italic.* 3. `**text**` will style 'text' as **bold.** 4. `***text***` will style 'text' as ***italic-bold***.

I study with lots of images and I love taking screenshots (because xrays and stuff) and I am craving for an option for easy draw over the pic option, nowdays my one option is screeshot and quickly write over it; would love if they could make an integration for this, especially since I am using it on a computer, but once in a while will use and Ipad and I am so up for keeping on with notion. It's such a powerful tool.

that's cool, thanks! could you explain could I linked 2 database with my work and personal tasks in one database but not show personal tasks in work database?

[@orlandosalazar9295]

How can I create people even when they are not using Notion?

[@evraya1]

Hey, thanks for the video. I wonder for a while already why is it forbidden to make the record of the database also the database. So we can insert inline databases only, but not the database entirely, why is that? Thanks

[@DavidChurcheese]

Is there any way to change the default date format and get rid of the worst possible format that is MM/DD/YYYY? It's painful enough that Americans won't switch to the metric system, so if we could at least avoid that date illogicality that would be great.

how to calculate something ? like we do on Excel with formula =sum( ... i really intresting with Notion , but confuse with this one .. looking for your feedback

[@kamikkaze5164]

This aap, idk what to say, but its incredible!!! Also I'm wondering which app didi you use for managing the Notion project

[@MatheusAugustoGames]

I'm guessing a beta version of it. Like compilers compiling compilers.

[@simpleprogrammingcodes]

Is there some kind of API or plugin system? For example I have a lot of books and other kinds of info in Zotero with tags, description and so on. But I cannot import it in Notion. It would be possible if I could write a simple CSV reader (for CSV files coming form Zotero) that imports data into Notion they way that makes the most sense for use in Notion. Also Zotero has very useful browser extension to generate book entries from web pages (Amazon book pages, Wikipedia articles, Google Book pages, internet pages, and so on). It would be nice to be able to do the same with Notion. Also it would be useful to write a function that exports Notion book list into bib format in order to use it with Emacs org mode. All of these tasks would be possible with API. So it would be very useful to a lot of people in a lot of cases.

[@gabrielaesqueda3712]

Can we have multi view in desktop and Gantt charts? 🙏🙏🙏🙏

How to freeze header, like we do in case of MS Excel. This is required esp when you have over 100 rows of data to deal/enter and too line disappear

Can I link separate calendars to make a "master calendar" with the relations or rollup features?

I’ve tried this but it doesn’t seem to work, the best way is to use the same database with different views and filters so all the information is inside

[@gs_f]

"every entry is its own page": can't understand that. That doesn't seem the case in my own database: it only works for cells in one single column. Even though I'm juggling the different property types.

[@scotia4040]

Tables are organised with the entries in rows, with the name and then the properties (which can be whatever kind of property you choose). When the video refers to an 'entry', they are referring to the entire row, not just an individual cell. You can access the entry's page by hovering over the name column, and then pressing 'open'. Hope that helps :)

Evernote is more simple than this! Notion and other hybrid notetaking/project management apps like taskade and coda are too overwhelming! Not a fan of evernote btw. Their recent hiccups have me rethink about switching to some other note taking app. Dont know maybe Notion is the answer. Hehehe
