# Sonoran Notepad
Write field notes in FiveM and synchronize them through your signed-in Sonoran CAD tablet.
The in-game notepad syncs directly with Sonoran CAD, keeping your notes updated between FiveM and the CAD in real time. Highlight names, license plates, and other information to run quick lookups and view NCIC results without leaving the notepad.
The paper interface keeps titled field notes, navigation, removal, and linked CAD results together.
## Features
* **In-Game Notepad** – Quickly open and edit notes without leaving FiveM.
* **Sonoran CAD Sync** – Notes automatically stay synced with your Sonoran CAD notepad.
* **Quick NCIC Lookups** – Highlight names, plates, and other information to run lookups directly from your notes.
## CAD sign-in and synchronization
The notepad syncs with the [CAD's tablet resource](https://docs.sonoransoftware.com/cad/integration-plugins/in-game-integration/available-plugins/tablet) submodule. Once signed into the tablet, add the **notepad** to your custom layout. Notes will sync between the in-game tablet and the CAD.
The notepad is still available for standalone use in-game, if not using Sonoran CAD and the tablet resource.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.sonoransoftware.com/store/sonoran-notepad.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
