Sync Jupyter notebook with Python session

I'm starting to use Python and Jupyter notebook for data analysis. I like Jupyter notebook but I sometimes prefers to use Spyder to have a quick look at the objets saved in memory (variables, dataframes, ...)

That's why I'd like to know if it's possible to have a shared workspace between a Python session open in an IDE (like Spyder or Rodeo) and a notebook, so I can share object and avoid executing the same code twice to have the best of both world.

At least in theory, Spyder supports connecting to an external IPython kernel (e.g. one managed by Jupyter Notebook) via the "Connect to existing kernel" option: https://pythonhosted.org/spyder/ipythonconsole.html

The connection info for that can be obtained as described in http://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples/Notebook/Connecting%20with%20the%20Qt%20Console.html#Manual-connection

Unfortunately, that isn't actually working for me with Fedora 24's Spyder (2.3.9) and IPython (3.2.1), so I'm marking this answer as Community Wiki.
