Notion (Optional)

Connect to Notion for client and matter management:

  • API token setup
  • Database IDs for clients and matters

Coming Soon

Notion integration is a forthcoming feature and has not yet been fully tested. Use at your own risk. We recommend using local-only mode for production work until this feature is officially released.

Not Required

Notion integration is optional. Certum Draft works perfectly well in local-only mode, storing client details with each matter.

Set the locations for your matters and templates:

  • Matters folder - Where matter folders are created
