Notion embed guide

How to Add a Countdown timer to a Notion Page.

Notion supports live embeds through its /embed block: paste a link, and the content renders inside the page. That makes adding a Countdown timer to Notion one of the simplest embed workflows there is, as long as the widget lives at a hosted URL.

Step by step

Embed the Countdown timer in your Notion page.

01

Create the widget in Fugte

Start from the Countdown timer starter, generate a variation with the built-in AI, or paste your own code.

02

Customize and publish it in Fugte

Text, colors, images, numbers, and options are no-code settings, so you can match your branding without touching code. Publishing gives the Countdown timer a stable hosted link and an embed snippet.

03

Type /embed in Notion

On the Notion page where you want the widget, type /embed, choose the Embed block, and paste the hosted link.

04

Resize and share

Drag the block's handles to size the Countdown timer, then share or publish the page as usual. The widget stays interactive for viewers.

Good to know

Notion specifics worth planning around.

Embeds work on free Notion plans, in private workspaces, shared pages, and published Notion Sites.

The widget is sized by dragging the embed block handles: set a height that fits the content to avoid inner scrollbars.

Teammates can move or delete the embed block, but the widget itself is edited in the widget editor, so nobody can break it from inside Notion.

The link stays stable: edits made in the widget editor show up on the Notion page automatically.
