Hello - I have a considerable number of docs in markdown. The wiki docs / other docs, is not really compatible with simply copy-pasting markdown you have. Anything that can be done?

ah, right, that will work. Actually my docs are in a database and happen to be in markdown format in a text field. I can get a json dump of them, then use jq to cook up a script to push them in via curl. Problem is slogging through to figure out what is useful or not. :slight_smile:

This is indeed , the notion app well made as well embed , but maker user experience for non code user who did not know makdown format

As a general comment being able to paste markdown would be rather nice, especially for us people who write notes in markdown in text editors and then want to paste them quickly in. (e.g. customer raises an issue on the phone, and I capture some notes in using a text editor)

With the recent idea of using Fibery for public docs and other things , it seems like being able to get any existing docs into Fibery will be important. Most people will not want to use API for this. At a minimum markdown pasting should be supported. And ideally bulk Markdown import to map to individ…

I’m getting close to doing a big migration of multiple processes and 100s of associated docs into Fibery, or rather I’m wanting to do this, but have no ability to utilize the API myself (not a coder). This kind of import option, or at least a basic markdown paste interpretation, seems increasingly v…

OK, well… there’s a workaround that might be manageable for a short while, if you use a Database for your “docs” (which IMO is often a good idea anyway): Create a Button that Overwrites (or appends/prepends, if you prefer) your Entity Description Enable “Ask for user input” for the contents Copy m…

[image] Oshyan: can I put all my docs into a CSV and import to Entity Rich Text that way? If the contents of the docs are not too big, you can actually do the following: - create a simple text field (called ‘Scratchpad’ or something) - define an automation that copies contents of this simpl…

Hmm, OK that’s good to know. But can’t I just import to a Rich Text/Description field anyway? From a quick test import (without actually committing the data) it appears that Rich Text is available for mapping from source data. Am I missing something?

You’re absolutely right - it is possible to directly import into rich text. My fault for not checking that first - I had used the method suggested a while back for a different reason; I can’t recall if import to rich text was available at that time. So yeah, if your source text is formatted as mark…

Wiki doesn’t support copy-pasting markdown at the moment.
The workaround I can offer now is to use direct fibery api to update whole document with markdown content: https://api.fibery.io/#update-rich-text-field
