Import your Markdown

Drag a folder, or a few .md files, anywhere onto NoteFlare. You can also use Account → Import a Markdown folder…. Files are read and encrypted in your browser, then uploaded in batches.

Dropping a folder of Markdown files to import

To try it, use the examples/sample-notes folder from the repository.

Part of the note Where it comes from
Title title in YAML frontmatter, else the first # Heading, else the file name
Labels tags from frontmatter (Obsidian style works), plus the sub-folder the file lives in
Color, pinned, archived color, pinned and archived in frontmatter
Trip.md
---
title: Trip to Da Lat
tags: [travel]
pinned: true
---
- [ ] Book flights
- [ ] Pack a jacket
  • .obsidian, .git and node_modules folders
  • Files that are not Markdown
  • Notes you already have, with the same title and body. Importing twice is safe.

Drop the vault folder. Frontmatter tags become labels, sub-folders become labels, and .obsidian/ is ignored. Wiki-links and embeds are kept as plain text.
