Notion MCP notion-ai-search is missing from tools/list and connector search needs notion-connector-search

Symptom

notion-ai-search no longer appears in the client tool listCannot find notion-connector-search in the tool list after reconnectingSearch returns only Notion pages and databases, no Slack or Drive hits

Cause

From October 20, 2026, hosted Notion MCP notion-search searches only Notion pages and databases. Connected sources moved to the new notion-connector-search tool, which is listed only when the user has AI search and the workspace has a connected source. notion-ai-search is hidden from tools/list but still callable by name. Workspace-owned connections keep their selected tools. In ChatGPT the new tool appears only after OpenAI reviews the updated Notion app.

Fix

Refresh the client's tool list or reconnect Notion MCP, then call notion-connector-search for Slack, Drive, GitHub, mail and calendar, optionally passing sources to narrow it. Use notion-fetch with a result id or url to open a connector result (Outlook, Google Calendar and Confluence results cannot be fetched).

ApplyCopy

Call tool notion-connector-search with {"query": "...", "sources": ["slack"]}

Affected
