Blocks

blocks

Wrapper for Notion API blocks.

Blocks are the base for all Notion content.

For validation the Pydantic model fields specify if a field is optional or not. Some fields are always set, e.g. id, when retrieving an object but must not be set when sending the object to the Notion API in order to create the object. To model this behavior, the default sentinel value Unset is used for those objects, e.g. 

class SelectOption(GenericObject)
    id: str | UnsetType = Unset
Be aware that this is important when updating to differentiate between the actual set values from default/unset values.

CTB_co = TypeVar('CTB_co', bound=ColoredTextBlockTypeData, default=ColoredTextBlockTypeData, covariant=True) module-attribute

GO_co = TypeVar('GO_co', bound=GenericObject, default=GenericObject, covariant=True) module-attribute
