Prepare Your Vault (Optional)

If you want to keep your Cleft notes organized, you might want to create a dedicated folder:

Connect Cleft to Obsidian

  1. Open Cleft Settings (press ⌘ + , or click the gear icon)
  2. Go to the “Integrations” tab
  3. Click “Connect to Obsidian”
  4. Select your vault and choose your dedicated Cleft folder

Cleft uses one-way sync: changes made in Cleft will sync to Obsidian, but changes made in Obsidian will not sync back to Cleft. Audio recordings stay in Cleft - only the transcribed text syncs to Obsidian.
