1

Open Cleft

Launch Cleft and open Settings by clicking the gear icon

2

Access Integrations

Navigate to the “Integrations” tab in Settings

3

Connect to Notion

Find the Notion section and click “Connect Notion” to begin authorization

4

Grant Permissions

Review and accept the requested permissions in Notion:

  • View and edit selected pages
  • Create new content
  • View and create comments
5

Select Pages

Choose which Notion pages Cleft can access

  • We recommend creating a dedicated “Cleft Inbox” page
  • Only grant access to pages where you want notes to appear

If you select one database, Cleft will automatically send all notes to that database when you press the send button.

Features

​
Automatic Syncing

  • Notes created in Cleft appear in Notion without manual export
  • Create new notes using voice or text input
  • Notes are processed and formatted according to your custom instructions

​
Core Features

  • Dedicated Inbox: You may create a database page for Cleft notes
  • Selective Access: Choose exactly which pages Cleft can modify
  • Format Preservation: Notes maintain their structure in Notion
  • One-way Sync: Changes in Cleft sync to Notion automatically

​
Best Practices

  • Create a dedicated “Cleft Inbox” page
  • Use Notion’s database features to organize notes
  • Set up templates for consistent formatting

​
Troubleshooting

If you encounter sync issues:

  1. Verify your permissions are still active
  2. Check that selected pages are accessible
  3. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the integration

Changes made directly in Notion won’t sync back to Cleft. The integration is one-way: from Cleft to Notion.
