How to import from Notion
- 1Open your recipe database page in Notion and click ⋯ (top right) → Export.
- 2Choose Export format: Markdown & CSV and switch on Include subpages, so the ingredients and method inside each recipe page come too.
- 3Click Export and keep the .zip that downloads. If Notion emails you a link, download the .zip from there.
- 4Final step: Come back to this page and click "Open Upload dropzone" on the right (or below on mobile). Pick the file you just exported and we'll parse every recipe automatically.
Frequently asked
Is the import free?
Yes. Importing recipes is always free — even for anonymous visitors. You only need an account to save what you import to your permanent cookbook shelf.
Will my Notion photos come with me?
Yes. Where photos are embedded (Paprika, Mela, Recipe Keeper, Cookmate, Evernote) we extract them from the file. Where they're linked via URL, we fetch and rehost them to our own storage so they never break — even if the source site goes down.
How does deduplication work?
Every import compares title + first ingredient against your existing recipes in the target cookbook. Exact matches are skipped. We show you the skip count when the import finishes so you can spot anything unexpected.
How big an import can I do?
Files up to 500 MB each (photos included) and URL batches up to 500 at a time. Big files upload in pieces with a progress bar, and if your connection drops you can pick the same file again to carry on where it stopped. That's typically enough for a lifetime of home cooking.
