Obsidian allows you to easily migrate your notes from Notion using the [[Importer|Importer plugin]].
## Export your data from Notion
Obsidian uses Notion's HTML export format. You can find Notions's instructions on how to export your entire workspace [on Notion's website](https://www.notion.so/help/export-your-content). Note that you must be a workspace admin to see this option.
1. Go to **Settings & members** at the top of your left-hand sidebar.
2. Select **Settings** in the sidebar of that window.
3. Scroll down and select the **Export all workspace content** button.
4. Under **Export format** select **HTML**.
5. Enable **Include subpages**
6. Enable **Create folders for subpages**
7. You will receive a `.zip` file via email or directly in the browser.

## Import your Notion data into Obsidian
You will need the official Obsidian [[Importer]] plugin, which you can [install here](obsidian://show-plugin?id=obsidian-importer).
1. Open **Settings**.
2. Go to **Community Plugins** and [install Importer](obsidian://show-plugin?id=obsidian-importer).
3. Enable the Importer plugin.
4. Open the **Importer** plugin using the command palette or ribbon icon.
5. Under **File format** select **Notion (.zip)**
6. Choose the `.zip` file with Notion files you want to import. *It's recommended to import all your Notion at once so internal links can be reconciled correctly.*
7. _Optionally_, select a folder for the import Your Notion pages and databases will be nested inside this folder.
8. Enable **Save parent pages in subfolders** to keep the Notion structure. *Note that in Notion you can write content in Folders, this is not possible in Obsidian and these pages will be added as a subpage under the folder.*
9. Select **Import** and wait until import is complete
10. You're done!
## Troubleshooting
If you run into issues while importing from Notion:
- Make sure you use **HTML** as the export format in Notion, **not Markdown**.
- If Obsidian appears to freeze during import, disable community plugins and try again.
Run into something else? Search [the Importer repository](https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-importer/issues) to see if others have experienced it.
