Bulk import from md and other apps
in progress
Steffen Bleher
Upload a zip folder of markdown files to capacities.
Considerations
- upload as a specific type and use front matter content to determine type and set properties
- upload to a specific space
Goal:
Maximize data integrity from other apps as best as possible. Requested apps:
- Notion
- Obsidian
- Roam
- Logseq
- RemNote
Supported syntax:
- #hashtag for tags
- front matter properties try to match to properties of type
- tags in front matter
- if front matter specifies a type try to match that to a capacities type

Please don't focus this only on importing from other note taking apps! That's usually a one-off exercise.
What's much more frequent is starting a list of stuff you want to have in Capacities. That would be much better served through a "simple" import from csv or json and much appreciated.
For example, I (extremely) regularly want to import a list of [X].
What I do now is to
- create a blank custom object (type) first so what I import is easily findable/accessible.
- go to list mode and enter titles and descriptions of stuff I want to expand on later.
- add custom properties as needed.
- expand (enter property values) for each item, either in list view or going through the list in preview mode.
csv / json import - even with only the default properties after creating a blank custom object (type) - would be extremely useful in this use case - as I often get my lists by querying something else and downloading that as csv or json.

I'd love to move off Dynalist but without a suitable import system Capacities isn't practical. Hopefully this feature addresses this.

Import of a Logseq Graph would be great.
Thanks for working on the import feature.

I agree with this sugestion. I desire to moved my obsidian's notes to capacities but upload one by one is a hard work and boring work.

Yes please, proper formated Google Keeep JSON import would be so appreciated! Good 10 years worth of notes and knowledge there

Just started trying out Capacities, and I have a good amount of data from various sources that I'd like to import. A bulk import that accepts CSVs (as a few people have mentioned) would be ideal. Otherwise I have a lot of work ahead of me. Thanks!

I've just heard Capacities from Instagram, and I love it. Can't wait to 100% switch from Notion to you guys asap.

Can we add Akiflow? They'll collaborate in any way possible.
