Import your pages from Notion

Export from Notion as HTML, pick the zip or folder, review what comes across, and import.

You can bring pages across from Notion, sub-pages, images and files included. Notion's export is read in your browser, and nothing is saved until you have reviewed it and chosen Import. An import only adds pages: it never changes or replaces one you already have.

In Notion, export as HTML with sub-pages.
Open the page's ••• menu and choose Export, or export your whole workspace from Notion's Settings. Pick HTML, and turn on Include subpages.
In DigiPages, choose Import from Notion… from the ••• menu at the top of the page list.
It is the button after new folder and new page, just under the word PAGES.
Pick what Notion gave you.
Choose zip files for the download, or Choose a folder if your browser unzipped it — Safari does by default. You can also drop either one on the box. A large workspace can arrive as several zips; pick them all together.
Review the list, then press Import.
Every page has a checkbox. Untick anything you don't want.

Pages that look like ones you already have are flagged, with a link to your page so you can compare. Already here means the title and the text both match, and it starts unticked. Same title and Similar title stay ticked, because a title alone is weak evidence — you may well want Notion's “Notes” beside your own. Common titles such as Untitled are flagged but never unticked for you. Importing the same export a second time therefore starts with everything unticked.

Unticking a page keeps its sub-pages ticked. They go under your existing copy of that page when there is one, and into the import folder otherwise; the list says which. Select subtree and Deselect subtree tick or untick a page and everything under it at once. A link to a page you skipped as a duplicate points at your copy instead.

Images and files count toward your storage — 100 MB on every account unless you have been given more. The review shows how much the ticked pages would use against what you have free, and Import stays greyed out until it fits; untick image-heavy pages, or free space on Account → Storage. Large images are scaled down the same way as one you paste, so the import usually takes less than the estimate.

In Notion	In DigiPages
Text, headings, bold, italic and links	The same.
Bulleted and numbered lists	Lists. A numbered list you restarted stays restarted.
To-do lists	To-do lists, with ticked items still ticked.
Code blocks	Code blocks in the same language. TSX and JSX become TypeScript and JavaScript; a language without highlighting here comes in as Plain text.
Toggles	Toggle lists.
Callouts	Callouts, with their emoji and colour.
Columns	Columns, at the same widths.
Simple tables	Tables, header row included.
Inline equations	Inline equations, from their LaTeX.
Images	Images, stored in your account.
Attached files	Files, if the type is one DigiPages accepts.
Sub-pages	Pages nested the same way and in Notion's order, each linked from its parent where Notion linked it.

A few things come across simpler than they were in Notion:

Databases come in as a plain table.
Attachments of a type DigiPages refuses — a .zip, for example — come in as just their name.
A link to a Notion page that was not in the export stays a link to Notion.
Bookmarks and embeds become a link to the page they showed.
Page icons, covers and comments are not imported.

The review lists everything that will be simplified before you import, and the report lists it again afterwards.

Everything new lands in one folder, named for the day — Imported from Notion, followed by the date. Keep the tab open while it runs. If it is interrupted, what did land is in that folder, and archiving the folder removes all of it to Trash in one go.
