How to Add Live Data Widgets to Notion (Charts, Trackers & More)

Ever wish you could turn your Notion databases into beautiful bar charts, line graphs, or progress trackers that update in real-time? With Blocky, you can sync live Notion data into customizable widgets — no code, no formulas, just drag, drop, and embed.

Let’s walk through exactly how to do it.


🧠 Why Live Data Widgets Matter

  • Visualize your progress from Notion tables instantly

  • Track KPIs, tasks, or goals with real numbers

  • Automate reports and dashboards without manual updates

  • Enhance collaboration by showing up-to-date info in a clean format


🛠 Step-by-Step: Embed Live Data From Notion

1. Connect Your Notion Workspace

Head to your Blocky Dashboard and click the Connect Notion button. You’ll be asked to grant permission to access specific databases.

✅ Tip: You can always change permissions later from your Notion integrations settings.


2. Choose a Widget Type

Once signed in and choose a widget like then hit create in the display:

  • Bar Chart

  • Pie Chart

  • Line Graph

  • Progress Tracker


3. Select Your Notion Database

A popup dialog will appear asking you to select a database from your connected workspace.

You’ll then:

  • Choose the Label Field (e.g., task name, project, category)

  • Choose the Value Field (e.g., number, percentage, count)

🎯 These fields tell Blocky how to generate the chart based on your data.


4. Customize the Widget Appearance

  • Adjust colors, borders, opacity, and legend settings

  • Toggle between vertical or horizontal charts

  • Format numbers or enable tooltips

All customization is visual — no setup files or code required.


5. Copy & Embed in Notion

Click Copy Embed, then:

  • Open your Notion page

  • Type /embed and paste the URL

  • Resize the widget as needed

Boom — your Notion page now displays live-updating data with a visual edge.
