🔧 How It Works

1. Connect Your Google Drive

Before you can create or edit documents using Google Docs, you'll need to connect your Drive:

• Go to your Editor Home Page
• Click the ☰ burger menu in the top-left corner
• Select Organization Settings
• Find the Google Drive Integration section
• Click Connect and follow the prompts to link your Google account

Once connected, you’re ready to use Google Docs with Sonat.

2. Create a New Google Document

From your home page:

• Click the ⋮ (three dots) next to the New Document button

• Choose Create Google Document

  

• Enter your desired title and slug
• Sonat will automatically create and open your linked Google Doc

3. Add Google Docs as Topics Within a Document

If you're already working inside a standard Sonat document:

• Click the ▼ dropdown next to the New button (top-left of the editor)
• Select Google Doc

• This allows you to embed Google Docs as topics inside your current document structure — perfect for modular documentation

4. Publish Your Changes

After editing in Google Docs (whether from a new doc or a topic within a doc):

• Click the Publish button in Sonat
• Then click View Live to see your published content in action  

Your Google Docs are now beautifully integrated into your Sonat-powered documentation — ready for your team or customers.
