How do I import notes from Markdown files?

  1. Open the Notesnook app (web or desktop)
  2. Go to Settings > Import & export > Notesnook Importer and select "Markdown". The Notesnook Importer app list with Markdown selected
  3. Drop your .md files, or click anywhere inside the box to browse and select your .md files. You can also provide a .zip file containing all your .md files. Then click "Start importing". The Notesnook Importer drop zone, ready to accept the export file
  4. Once the importing completes you should see all your notes in Notesnook. If you face any issues during importing, feel free to report them on GitHub.

Supported formats

  • 100% support for CommonMark syntax
  • GitHub flavored markdown (task lists, tables etc.)
  • Obsidian flavored markdown (embedded files, comments etc.)
  • Subscript and superscript (H~2~O and 19^th^)
  • Highlights (==highlighted==)
  • Images and links (links that point to files get added as attachments)

Note: For best results, it is recommended to ZIP all your .md files and their attachments so they can be found by the importer.
