Connect External Tools

Connect your Notion workspace to Arkain and let the AI build apps and containers using your actual project docs — no copy-pasting required.

Notion is the first tool you can connect to Arkain. More services are on their way, so you'll be able to expand your workflow as new integrations become available.

With your docs connected, turning ideas into working projects has never been faster. Start building with your own context today!

---

1. Connect your tools

On the Dashboard page, click the connector icon () in the bottom-left corner of the Snap and the Side Chat(Dashboard) input box to open the Connect your tools popup.

2. Connect Notion

Click the Connect button next to Notion. A Notion login popup will open.

Select the workspace you want to connect, check "I know and trust this URL", and click Continue to grant access.

Once connected, the Notion icon() will appear next to the connector icon in the input box.

3. Enter your prompt

With Notion connected, describe what you want to build in the prompt input box. There are two ways to reference your Notion content:

Option A — Let the AI search your Notion automatically : Just describe what you need in natural language. The AI will search your connected Notion workspace to find relevant docs and use them as context.

e.g. Build a web app based on the developer resume PRD doc in Notion

Option B — Paste a specific Notion page URL : Copy the URL of a specific Notion page and paste it directly into the prompt along with your request for more precise context.

e.g. https://www.notion.so/your-page-url Build a web app based on this doc

The Side Chat(Dashboard) will open and show a "Creating Snap prompt..." indicator while the AI reads your Notion content and prepares the project.

4. Generate with Arkain Snap

Once the AI finishes, you'll see "Arkain Snap is ready" in the Side Chat along with a generated project summary. Click the [Generate with Arkain Snap] button to proceed.

If you've reached your container limit or have insufficient credits, you'll be prompted to upgrade your plan or purchase more credits before proceeding.

5. Your project is being built

Arkain Snap will open a new page showing "Context pulled from your tools", confirming your Notion content was used as reference. The AI will then plan and build your project automatically.

Once complete, use the Side Chat to make further refinements.

Notion context is available at the project creation stage only. It cannot be used inside the Workspace.

Disconnect Notion

To disconnect Notion, click the connector icon (🔗) in the bottom-left corner of the input box to open the Connect your tools popup. Click the Disconnect button next to Notion. Once disconnected, the Notion icon will disappear from the connector button.

Disconnecting Notion does not affect any containers or projects that were already created using Notion context.
