Integrating Notion with Looker Studio extends the power of both tools, converting operational data into business intelligence.

Kondado’s role

With Kondado, there’s no need to develop complex pipelines or depend on manual exports.

Just configure your data source and the platform will automatically update your reports according to the frequency defined in your plan—ensuring your analyses are always based on the latest data.

What to analyze in a Notion report inside Looker Studio

The replication opens up several applications across different business areas.

For example:

  1. Project management: task completion rate, average execution time, weekly progress.
  2. Sales and CRM: pipeline tracking, opportunities, and conversions.
  3. Internal operations: team productivity, employee engagement, process bottlenecks.
  4. Digital marketing: replication of content planning in Notion with performance metrics in Looker Studio.

When centralized in a Looker Studio dashboard (Via Kondado), these indicators become a powerful decision-making tool. In just a few steps, you’ll have an interactive panel with centralized information.
