Today's video
we are looking at notions brand new Evernote
Importer and we're going to be looking into what it can do what it can't do and
giving you a review of how to get started so guys, let's dive in
So in the last month or so notion how added a brand new Web Clipper and now they have this new Evernote
Importer so from the perspective of Evernote users this is looking very much on the up you
have the ability to clip stuff and you now have the ability to
import
now if you want to access this one is today's a launch date so all you have to do is refresh your notion account and
It should appear in the import area now in this demonstration I wanted to import once all notebook and that was our wedding
planning notebook so hopefully it will give you a full explanation of how to do this so when you actually access the
Important you will get $5 credit to your account if you use the feature so that's a huge bonus there
Now all you need to do is press the importer button and you'll both be brought to an authorization
Screen from evernote now once you sign into Evernote account you actually have to choose whether you're gonna give it one year
Or just one day access and of course be happy with all of the access abilities they're
Suggesting now once you've authorized your account you will be prompted to select
all of the notebooks that you want to import in this case I was just important the wedding
2018 notebook but you could select or deselect all and go through all of the notebooks there's
Also a little search bar there too if you're looking for a specific
notebook - now once you hit import it will begin importing all of the
individual notes
into a database view in this case it was actually a list view and of course you can change the view of the database to
gallery to table and many more viewing options now they automatically sort it based on the
descending order of the
creation day and
You can change that up in the top right corner and if you wanted to as well you could change the filter too as well
As select on when it was last updated?
Now in terms of the original notes the original notes imported pretty well I noticed that all of the less imported Wow
Some of the tables that I pre created in Evernote
Transported really really, well and all of the image came across too so here's a few examples of that
Now one thing to note as well is the emails that I forwarded
Into Evernote didn't transfer fully across I'm not sure this is a beta edition but if there's any notes of the team let me know
About I'll include them on the screen now as of course this was a beta version I was playing around with and definitely
pre-launch so from general opinion
I did think this import worked actually pretty
well and it did surprise me I
Changed it in gallery view and all of the images came across full bleed which
was pretty nice and in my opinion it it's pretty good in terms of what it has the ability to do
The good thing as well is if you
Had any tags associated this you can re add them but I'm not sure the importantly
Collects that and brings that on board as a property so I do apologize
I did a little bit of a test with Oh an old
Accounting module that I did at university and it looks like the tanks imported pretty
well and you can of course toggle them on and off using the properties area so the good news is tags do import to
PDFs as well I noticed were in the same notion
Format of course you could open them up inside of a web page and Hassocks in there now one thing I was pretty impressed with
is if you do want to go back to the importer at any given time you can quickly Riaan ports tough quite easily so if
You wanted to trial this with just one of your areas then you can do that and then
We select everything and re-imported, we do remember it will
Probably take you a bit of time to reorganize everything in terms of putting it in the right pages but the good news is all
Notebooks will transfer across in this list view now if you want my opinion
I was pretty impressed by the way that they
Evernote imported this over as you can imagine it was something that I thought would be a bit tricky but it looks actually
Pretty good and I think when you guys get the launched version today it
Probably will have most of the bugs fixed in it other thing to note is it's great
That you are able to get new credit from this $5 is great you can also access new credit
just by going to the web clipper which is three dollars and also
accessing the system share on the iOS and Android apps for three dollars - that's one of the huge bonuses and
Collectively that's 11 dollars if my math is right which will give you pretty much a free
Month on notion do remember as well if you're on the free block plan this is probably going to knock you over that
especially if you're adding in plenty of notes
What I particularly liked about this as well is you can see how many notes you'll be importing per notebook
Which is something a very small detail but
Something super valuable in case you didn't want to go over that block limit so guys let me know in the comments what you thought
about this experience if you honestly
Great to hear so guys thanks very much make sure to have a great week key productive and I'll see you guys very very soon
Cheers
