Who makes a database API with no way to change records in the database?

  You can update the properties of a page in a database using a PATCH request to v1/pages, details here: https://developers.notion.com/reference/patch-page https://developers.notion.com/reference/patch-page (I work at Notion, but not on the API team)

    Yeah, I found that later. Still seems odd there isn't a direct API for it.

      Is this not the direct API? Databases are just a bag of pages that have the same properties. I would kinda expect that updating a record would just be a page operation.

        There is a direct API for listing databases for instance. That isn't done through the pages stuff. Just a nit I guess but using the page patch API for databases updates is just weird to me.
