💾Settings → Data

Pane for app-level data switches. The sync manual is Reload and sync. This page does not become a second sync book.

What this is / when to use it

Data settings are the few toggles that apply to the whole app: whether end users may refresh, default auto-sync participation, and links into Databases.

Before you start

Databases are already linked.

Build it

  1. Open Settings → Data.

  2. Confirm the linked database list (or jump to Databases).

  3. Set any app-wide refresh / cache switches the pane shows.

  4. For per-database sync, leave this pane and use the sync manual.

Every control

Control
What it does

Linked databases list

App-wide refresh

Default for end-user reload when screens inherit it.

Cache / offline notes

PWA may cache chrome; row freshness still follows sync. See Add To Home Screen.

What users see

Only what you enabled (a reload button, fresher rows). They do not see this pane.

Limits and plans

Meters: databases, pages, properties, blocks, file uploads, two-way sync frequency. Plans.

Example

Turn on app-wide “allow reload” so every list can show a refresh control, then disable it on a public catalogue screen.

Fix problems

Data stopped syncing: troubleshooting page + sync manual, not this short pane.

Reload and sync. Notion property types.
