keep-it-markdown VS yarle

GOOGLE KEEP - like your usage of TODOIST, but this is my capture tool. I like Tiago Forte's thoughts on capture tools and PARA, so this isn't a todo-list, just a capture of ideas that may become a project or resource later in obsidian. I've chatted with the dev on keep-it-markdown which logs into google and downloads keep notes as markdown, so I don't have to copy/paste into obsidian even - https://github.com/djsudduth/keep-it-markdown

Instructions on use are in the README.md file here - https://github.com/djsudduth/keep-it-markdown

Used Keep It Markdown software https://github.com/djsudduth/keep-it-markdown [I think that's the right one] to export 625 Google Keep Notes via API and convert them to Markdown files. Then imported into those programs.

This was not easy at all. I could not find a simple guide that didn't require any knowledge of coding. After some serious Googling, I found this method 1. Export your notes from Google Takeout 2. Import your notes into UpNote. 3. Highlight all of your notes and export them to Markdown. Unfortunately, you need to sign up for a premium account to do this. I don't plan on continuing to use UpNote, so I opted for the 0.99 USD/month plan which I've already cancelled. To rescue 672 notes, this was worth it for me. 4. Import the Markdown files into your vault.

There is a project called keep-it-markdown which enables keep notes to be converted to markdown using the keep API. The resultant markdown can be used in obsidian, logseq, Joplin or notion. You can also get markdown notes imported into keep https://github.com/djsudduth/keep-it-markdown

For those of you using the kim.py downloader (https://github.com/djsudduth/keep-it-markdown) and having problems with login being rejected all the time, I found a solution for windows that worked for me:

I just looked more at the OP, I thought it stored the audio as well but it looks like not? I'll look more into Google Keep, the Google Takeout thing might be good enough for me in the short term if I can't find a better bulk export but that's super kludgy. keep-it-markdown is all I've found so far that might be better.

FWIW, I exported all my Evernote notebooks just recently from my old free account. Used https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert them to Markdown. It also has support for various PKB formats, like Obsidian. Hope that helps!

I then used a 3rd-party tool called YARLE (Yet Another Rope Ladder from Evernote) to convert each .ENEX file into a folder of .md files and a folder of linked attachments.

https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert to Obsidian MD.

Using https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle you will dump all your evernote notes in md format in a directory. You will open the directory as a vault.

Here's how to do it:

1. Download the legacy Evernote v.6.25.3.x. Evernote has removed it from their website but you can get it at FileHippo. Download this now - I downloaded 6.25.3.9348 and used it, but now it's gone from FileHippo... not sure why. https://filehippo.com/download_evernote/6.25.1.9091/

2. Follow the undocumented trick for downloading all notebooks at once. This will preserve tags as well. Archived here: https://archive.ph/XDnqN - scroll down to KoZz's comment posted on "Tuesday at 11:53 AM".

3. Then if you want to move to Obsidian, use YARLE but note the template that automatically loads doesn't work (it has spaces and breaks other rules). https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

4. Template block definitions here: https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle/blob/master/Templates.m... FWIW, I used this as my template (paste in the "Set Template" window for YARLE):

    {content-block}{content}{end-content-block}

Have You tried this? https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

There's a tool called Yarle, aka "Yet another rope ladder from Evernote" that helps you migrate your data to Markdown:

I was never a big Evernote user, but I did use Yarle to migrate some old Evernote data to Obsidian.

That's why I developed Yarle, The ultimate converter for Evernote to Markdown. It is platform-independent, it has UI, no installation requited, supports conversion to standard markdown, or special cases like Obsidian, Logseq or Tana. You could give it a try by downloading it here: https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

Download and use a tool like Yarle.
