This script will import from Apple Notes directly into Notion. Note that data extraction from Apple Notes is very limited. See Limitations below.

When working with your data, always make a backup and/or perform testing in a safe area to ensure that your valuable data is protected!

The script requires python3 and poetry. The easiest way to install on macOS is using Homebrew:

brew install python3 poetry

This application uses poetry to manage dependencies. This protects your local environment and makes running the application more reliable.

To initialize the environment, simply run:

poetry install --sync

At any time, you may re-run he above command to get the latest supported version of all dependencies.

You will need an integration for your Notion workspace. This can be set either using the command line or by setting the environment variable NOTION_ACCESS_TOKEN. Be sure that your target import page is shared with your integration.

For more information on setting up the workspace integration, visit the official Authorization Guide.

Run the script to get a list of configuration options:

poetry run notes2notion --help

Simply run the script with the desired options when ready:

poetry run notes2notion --auth NOTION_ACCESS_TOKEN --page 2fac8b5571d04310bb2c695cf3d1422b

Apple Notes only exports a limited set of the formatting from the original note.

• Many colors, font sizes, font styles, etc are not preserved.
• Underline is not preserved due to a limitation in Markdown.
• Hyperlinks are not preserved during Apple Notes export.
