readwise_onyx_boox

provide them in the files in notion_integration/notion_key.txt and notion_integration/notion_database.txt

notion_processing.py --filepath output.csv

Notion Template to duplicate with the supported schema: https://adamverano.notion.site/119999ea1a1d442c8889ef2bd25db803?v=800f2a9cf95c4480b0e454aaf7db3c00
