## Prerequisites

* **Workspace Owner** access to your Notion workspace, so you can assign the integration account as a Workspace Owner.

## Setup

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add Notion in AccessOwl">
    Either add a new application or open Applications and click the +-symbol, then continue.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Assign the integration account as a Workspace Owner">
    Follow the setup instructions in AccessOwl and assign the integration account the **Workspace Owner** role in Notion.

    <Note>
      The integration account is assigned as Workspace Owner because it needs to both add and remove members on your behalf. Lower roles like Membership Admin can add members but not remove them, which would prevent AccessOwl from completing deprovisioning.
    </Note>

    <Warning>
      If you plan to assign user access to closed teamspaces, ensure the integration account has access to them.
    </Warning>
