Getting Started with Live Charts in Notion

Say Goodbye to Static Screenshots

If you’re still copying and pasting screenshots of your metrics into Notion, you’re not alone. But there’s a better way.

With Chartivo, you can embed live, interactive charts that update automatically. No more manual updates, no more outdated data.

Why Live Charts Matter

Static screenshots have three major problems:

1. They go stale immediately - The moment you paste a screenshot, the data is already outdated
2. They waste your time - Manually updating charts across documents takes hours every week
3. They lack context - Team members can’t drill down or explore the data

Live charts solve all of these problems.

How to Embed Live Charts in Notion

Here’s how to get started in 5 minutes:

Step 1: Connect Your Data Source

First, sign up for Chartivo and connect your Stripe account. We only request read-only access to your data.

Click "Add Data Source" → Move to "Stripe" Section → Add your Stripe API key

Step 2: Create Your Chart

Use our no-code chart builder to create your visualization:

• Choose your chart type (line, bar, pie, etc.)
• Select the metrics you want to display

Step 3: Embed in Notion

Once your chart is ready:

1. Click the “Share” button
2. Copy the embed URL
3. In Notion, type /embed and paste the URL
4. Resize as needed

That’s it! Your chart will now update automatically.
