Uploading SVG to Notion Pages
Notion accepts SVG file uploads in image blocks (/image command). The SVG displays inline on the page but Notion converts it to a raster representation for rendering — the original SVG file is preserved for download. For crisp display at all zoom levels, upload SVG directly rather than converting to PNG first.
- Type `/image` in Notion and upload SVG file
- SVG uploads preserved as original file for download
- For guaranteed visual quality, export SVG to 2× PNG before upload
SVG Icons for Notion Workspace
Notion page icons support emoji, custom images, and links to external images — including SVG URLs. For SVG page icons, host the SVG file publicly (GitHub raw URL, CDN, or your own server) and paste the URL into the Notion page icon URL field. This displays the SVG as the page icon.
- Page icon URL: paste direct link to publicly hosted SVG
- GitHub raw: host SVG on GitHub and use raw.githubusercontent.com URL
- Icon packs: Notion icon SVG packs available from Notionery and Minimal Notion
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I embed an interactive SVG chart in Notion?
Not directly — Notion renders SVG as a static image. For interactive charts in Notion, use the Embed block (/embed) with a URL to a hosted interactive SVG page. Services like Observable, Datawrapper, and chart.js hosted pages can be embedded in Notion via the embed block.
How do I use an SVG logo as a Notion workspace icon?
Go to Notion Settings > My Account > Profile photo (or workspace icon). Notion accepts image uploads but not SVG directly for workspace icons. Convert your SVG logo to a 280×280 PNG and upload as the workspace icon for the best display quality.
