Notion 7.22: simple table cell merging, workspace API rate limits and Workers runtime

What's new

• Cell merging in simple tables: merge cells to create multi-column headers or group related rows into structured layouts without database overhead.
• Workspace API rate limits: shared across all of a workspace's connections and scaled to plan, so one runaway integration can't starve the others.
• Notion Workers: a hosted sandbox runtime for custom code (deploy via CLI), usable for example for Database Sync from external APIs without running your own infrastructure.
• Database Sync: mirror any API-backed data source into a Notion database via Workers.
• Offline indicator + tab navigation fix: clearer connection-state UX.

Why it matters

Workers pushes Notion from a doc tool toward a full platform — a coding agent (including a customer's own AI) can deploy integrations without devops scaffolding. For teams with many connections, workspace rate limits are the first guardrail against 'one integration eats everything.'

How to try it

Update desktop/mobile to 7.22.0; merging is selection → Merge cells in a simple table; Workers and Database Sync live under the Notion Developer Platform CLI.
