I used this import feature:

 ![chrome_evVym2mlOf](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/b/b3c91f6524bc2e35a2d9f47babfbc0bb134ab6ec.png)

But that results in the markdown files to be Fibery Documents, not entities.

- Is there a straightforward way to bulk-convert these Documents into database entities?
- Maybe create a custom integration?
- If not, what would be a GraphQL snippet look like that does that?

BTW I think there is already a feature request to improve Markdown import.

Did anyone accomplish something similar (fetching stand alone documents in a space) with a script?

Why don’t you combine the source files and use the CSV import to get them directly into Fibery as entities?

If you have a specific problem with markdown, it’s probably best to start a new thread (or contribute to an existing one that covers your question)

I like to regularly import complete Google Drive folders with Google Docs in it, and convert these to entities, without having to do a complicated extra step in between; the Google export conversion to MD is already an extra step.

Have you thought of using a third party tool, e.g. Zapier, Make or Ply?
