Understanding block usage
Learn more about block usage depending on your plan and how many people are in your workspace 🟨
跳至常見問題In Notion, the pages you create can contain much more than plain text. Every page you create can be composed of many blocks — from lines of text to table rows, images, videos, and more. Every piece of content you add is counted as a new block. Learn more about blocks here →
Restrictions on block usage apply to workspaces that are on the Free Plan and have more than one workspace owner.*
Plan | Workspace size | Block usage |
|---|---|---|
Free | 1 workspace owner only | Unlimited |
Free | 2+ workspace owners* | 1,000 blocks per workspace. After this, your workspace will need to upgrade to a paid Notion plan in order to continue creating content. |
Plus, Business, Enterprise | 1+ workspace owners and/or members | Unlimited |
*People added to workspaces on a Free Plan can only join as workspace owners.
We count blocks based on the amount of content created in your workspace since signing up — deleting blocks, or emptying the trash, will not reduce your block count.
If you find yourself approaching 1,000 blocks in your workspace, it might be worth considering an upgrade to a paid plan. Paid plans offer unlimited blocks and additional features for teams collaborating in Notion. Visit our pricing page for more details.

What are my options if I don't want to upgrade to a paid plan?
If you prefer not to upgrade at this time, you can remove additional members from your workspace so that your workspace has only one member. Workspaces with only one member have access to unlimited blocks. You can add collaborators as guests to continue working with these users in a more limited capacity.
