Notion databases as an Apple TV dashboard, from roadmap to OKRs
Notion is where a lot of teams keep the roadmap, the OKRs and the content calendar as databases with a Status property. Dance Party reads the pages you share with it and turns those databases into an Apple TV dashboard for the office display, so the roadmap is something people see, not a link they have to open.
- Read-only
- OAuth connection
- One connection per workspace
Popular Notion dashboards
What teams running Notion put on the screen, and what you would ask DJ Agent to get it.
Roadmap status from the Notion database
For product, engineering and anyone who asks when something ships
The roadmap database is current in Notion but invisible outside it. Counting items by Status on a screen shows at a glance what is moving and what is blocked.
- Roadmap items per Status value in your database
- Items marked Blocked, called out in red
- Items with a ship date this quarter, from a date property
Ask DJ Agent“Count the items in our Notion Product Roadmap database by Status, and flag anything marked Blocked.”
Key results progress
For leadership and team leads
OKRs set in January are forgotten by March unless they stay visible. A bar per key result, read from a progress property in the OKR database, keeps the quarter's goals in the room.
- Each key result's name and progress percent from a number property
- Average progress across the objective as the headline
- Filtered to the current quarter with a select property
Ask DJ Agent“Chart progress for each key result in our Notion OKRs database for Q4, using the Progress property.”
Content calendar: publishing this week
For marketing and content
A content calendar in Notion has a publish date and a status on every post. Listing what goes out this week, and what is still in draft, makes the Thursday deadline obvious on Monday.
- Pages with a Publish date in the next seven days
- Each page's Status, like Draft, In review or Scheduled
- The channel or owner, from a select or person property
Ask DJ Agent“List posts in our Notion Content Calendar with a Publish date this week, sorted by date, with their Status.”
Weekly update page in the lobby
For everyone in the office
Many teams write a weekly update page in Notion. Showing its latest bullet points on the lobby screen reaches the people who never open the wiki.
- Headings and bullet points from a shared Notion page
- The page's last-edited time
- A to-do block's checked state, when the page has one
Ask DJ Agent“Show the bullet points under This week on our Notion Weekly Update page.”
What Dance Party reads from Notion
Dance Party reads Notion through its public API with a connection you approve in Notion. It can only see the pages and databases you shared with it, and pages nested under them. It only sends read requests.
Databases
Notion API docs ↗- Database schemaProperty names and types, like Status, Owner, Due or Progress, so widgets use your fields.
- Database rowsUp to 300 rows per read, filtered and sorted by any property, such as Status is In progress.
Pages
Notion API docs ↗- Page propertiesTitle, dates, selects, people, numbers, formulas and last-edited time.
- Page contentHeadings, paragraphs, bullets and to-dos on a shared page, read block by block.
Search
Notion API docs ↗- Search by titleFinds a shared page or database by name, so you can say OKRs instead of pasting a link.
How to connect Notion
Before you start
- An owner or admin of your Dance Party workspace makes the Notion connection.
- A Notion member who can open the pages and databases you want on screen. On Enterprise plans, a workspace owner may need to allow the connection first.
- No integration token or developer setup. You pick pages in Notion's own screen.
- 1In Dance Party's Integrations page, find Notion and click Connect Notion.
- 2Notion opens. Check the workspace in the top right, review what Dance Party can do, and click Select pages.
- 3Tick the pages and databases to share, such as Product Roadmap or OKRs. Pages nested under them come along. Click Allow access.
- 4Back in Dance Party, the Notion card reads Connected.
- 5To share another page later, open it in Notion, click the ••• menu, choose Connections, and add Dance Party.

One Notion connection per workspace
A workspace connects one Notion workspace, and every Notion widget reads the pages shared through that connection. To show pages from a second Notion workspace, connect it from a separate Dance Party workspace.
Read-only, and only for the pages you picked. Dance Party never creates, edits or comments on a Notion page. To stop sharing one page, remove Dance Party from that page's Connections menu. To cut it off entirely, open Settings, then Connections in Notion, click ••• next to Dance Party and choose Disconnect.
From Notion to your office display
Once Notion shows Connected, the rest happens in plain English. No code, no drag-and-drop.
1. Describe it. Tell DJ Agent what you want to see.

Notion dashboard questions
Can I show a Notion database on a TV in the office?
Yes. Share the database with Dance Party when you connect, ask DJ Agent for the view you want, and assign it to a screen running the Dance Party Apple TV app.
Can Dance Party see my whole Notion workspace?
No. It sees only the pages and databases you ticked when connecting, plus pages nested inside them. Everything else stays private.
Why can't DJ Agent find my Notion page?
It has not been shared with Dance Party. Open the page in Notion, click •••, choose Connections, add Dance Party, and ask again.
Does it use my own Notion properties?
Yes. Dance Party reads your database schema, so a widget counts by your Status options and charts your Progress numbers, not generic fields.
How many rows of a Notion database can one widget read?
Up to 300 rows per read. For bigger databases, filter to what matters on screen, such as this quarter or Status is not Done.
Can Dance Party edit my Notion pages?
No. It only sends read requests to Notion. It cannot create, edit, move or comment on pages or database rows.
