I would also like to add that this is not a Claude Code-specific issue; the web version has the same problem.
Tool calls to Notion also fail.
I feed the url to Claude, this is what Claude told me:
I want to mention that I don’t fully agree with Claude on this. I believe the issue is actually related to the URL and session format change.
Thanks for adding, hope this gets resolved soon
Note that this may be an intermittent issue on Notion's side and may not be Claude native.
