How Conversion Works
For each doc, the exporter asks monday.com for its own Markdown version of the doc, then tidies it up: it fixes spacing, rebuilds notice boxes and quotes, and turns mentions into names and links. If monday.com can't produce a Markdown version (for example, for an empty doc), the exporter converts the doc itself, block by block. Either way you get a standard Markdown file that works in GitHub, Obsidian, VS Code and static site generators.

|---|---|
| inside a table cell |
Written out unescaped, which adds an extra column to that row |
Text in angle brackets, e.g. <draft> |
Removed from the output |
| Layouts and columns | Empty layouts are left out. Layouts with content are exported as a table with one cell per column. |
| Mentions of people or docs you can't access | Left as @{user-<id>} or @{doc-<id>} |
