Description

Looks like the latest Notion updates have broken even the newest forks of this project. `collection.add_row()` works fine on existing databases, but if you create a new database, `collection` comes back as `NoneType`.

Research direction

Start by tracing collection.add_row() and the code that populates collection when a new Notion database is created. Reproduce the NoneType failure against a newly created database, compare it with an existing database, and confirm that add_row() works in both cases.
