Notion Keyboard Shortcuts — All 89, From the Official Docs

Notion does not have one shortcut system, it has three, and most cheat sheets blur them together. The first is ordinary modifier shortcuts — Ctrl + B for bold, Ctrl + F to search a page. The second is markdown-style triggers, where typing a character followed by a space transforms the block: # then space becomes a heading, [] then space becomes a checkbox. The third is the slash menu, where typing / anywhere in an empty block opens a searchable command list.

Knowing which system you are in matters, because they fail differently. A modifier shortcut works on the current selection and does nothing if nothing is selected. A markdown trigger only fires at the start of an empty block — type # mid-sentence and you just get a hash. A slash command only appears in an empty block too, and pressing Esc dismisses the menu if you actually wanted to type a slash in your prose.

Notion's own documentation writes modifiers as cmd/ctrl because the same key does the same job on both platforms. This page lists the Windows and Linux form, so read Ctrl as Cmd and Alt as Option if you are on a Mac. Two shortcuts genuinely differ by platform — the database peek-view navigation keys — and those are noted inline.

The linking commands are worth separating out because they look interchangeable and are not. Typing @ mentions a person or an existing page inline. Typing [[ opens a menu that shows page-linking options first. Typing + opens the same menu but shows page-creation options first. All three can reach all outcomes; the difference is only which option the dropdown puts under your cursor by default, which is why [[ feels faster for linking and + feels faster for creating sub-pages.

The slash commands below are the block types Notion documents by name. There are more blocks available in the menu than the help centre lists explicitly — the menu is searchable, so typing / followed by any word will filter it. Everything on this page is taken from Notion's official keyboard shortcuts article.
