Import Data

The Data tab in Settings lets Pro and Lifetime users import posts from bookmark and read-later apps, browser bookmark HTML, or a plain URL list. Duplicate URLs do not create a second post.

Where to find it

Go to Settings → Data → Import. The Import button has been moved here from the dashboard.

Social platforms

To import from X, Bluesky, LinkedIn, Threads, Truth Social, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, Pinterest, Facebook, or YouTube, use the browser extension's platform-specific Grab feature. See the Importing Content section for details.

How to Import

1

Go to Settings → Data

Open the Data tab in Settings.
2

Choose your source

Select the app or file type. Savebase shows where to export it and the expected filename.
3

Choose how sources are filed

Match social URLs to Savebase's platform sources, or keep the originating app name.
4

Choose your file

Click Choose file and select the export from your device.
5

Review and confirm

Preview the posts found, then click Import to add them to your library.

Duplicates are skipped

If a post with the same URL already exists, Savebase does not add a new row. Incoming notes replace the existing note, and incoming tags and folders are added to that post.
