Notion API search returns nothing until you share pages with the integration

Not specified by the original author.

When Notion search comes back empty, dont debug the query, check sharing. The search endpoint only sees content shared with your integration. Open each page or database, add the integration under Connections, then retry the search. Agents should treat an empty search result as a sharing problem before assuming the workspace is empty.

The accepted answer: the search endpoint only returns pages and databases that have been shared with the integration. Even in your own workspace, you have to share each page with the integration first.
