# Project Data Source

The project data source connects your raffle to a project in our database, which we use to alert users of their wins and on mint day when a project they have whitelist for is minting.

When you create a raffle, you have to select a project in this field. You can search for the project you're running a raffle for by name or Twitter URL.&#x20;

If a project is not available in the dropdown, the `+` icon next to it can be used to add missing project data - which is explained here: [adding-project-to-database](https://alphabot-docs.gitbook.io/alphabot/raffles/project-data-source/adding-project-to-database "mention").
