Export From Inside a Doc
You don't have to open the full exporter to export one doc. You can start an export from inside the doc itself. The exporter already knows which doc and workspace you're in, so there's nothing to pick.
Open the Export Dialog
Use either of these, anywhere in the doc:
- Add content menu: click the + beside an empty line, open Apps, and choose Export to Markdown
- Slash command: type
/export-to-markdownon an empty line (typing/exportor/markdownis usually enough to find it), and choose it
Export
The dialog shows the doc's name and workspace.
- Leave Include attachments on to get a ZIP with the doc and its images, or turn it off to get just the
.mdfile with the original image links. See Including Attachments. - Check the file name shown under the option. It's the one your browser will download.
- Click Export. When it's done, click Close to go back to your doc.
The export uses the doc's saved content, and nothing is added to or changed in your doc.
When to Use the Full Exporter Instead
Use the full exporter, under Workspace apps, to export several docs, a whole folder or a whole workspace in one ZIP. See Features & How-To.
