This guide walks you through migrating your Notion data to Knowlix. You can export your entire workspace at once or export individual pages and databases. Make sure you are signed in as a workspace owner or admin to access workspace-level export settings.

​
What You Can Migrate

Notion content falls into two categories — pages and databases — both of which can be exported:
  • Databases — tables, boards, calendars, and galleries (export as CSV)
  • Pages — documents, notes, and wikis (export as Markdown)
  • Subpages — nested pages within any top-level page
  • Database entries — all rows with their properties and values
  • Custom properties — all column types including text, select, date, checkbox, number, relation, and formula fields
What does NOT export: Comments, page history, database relations between separate databases, file attachments, and embedded media are not included in Notion’s native export.

​
Step 1: Export Your Data from Notion

You have two options: export your entire workspace at once, or export individual pages or databases one at a time. This is the fastest way to get all your data out of Notion in one go.
  1. Click Settings in the left sidebar (or press Cmd/Ctrl + ,)
  2. Go to Settings in the left panel, then scroll to the Workspace section
  3. Click Export all workspace content
  4. In the export dialog:
    • Export format: Select Markdown & CSV
    • Include subpages: Toggle on
    • Create folders for subpages: Toggle on (recommended for organization)
  5. Click Export
  6. Notion will prepare a .zip file — click Download when it is ready
The .zip will contain:
  • A CSV file for each database
  • A Markdown (.md) file for each regular page
  • An index.html sitemap to help you navigate the export
PDF export for entire workspace requires a Business or Enterprise plan. For most migration purposes, Markdown & CSV is sufficient.

​
Option B: Export a Single Page or Database

Use this if you only want to migrate specific content.
  1. Open the page or database you want to export
  2. Click the ••• icon in the top-right corner of the page
  3. Click Export
  4. In the export dialog:
    • Export format: Select Markdown & CSV
    • Include subpages: Toggle on if the page has nested sub-pages you want to include
  5. Click Export — a .zip file downloads to your computer

​

​
Step 2: Upload to Knowlix

Once you have your .zip export from Notion:
  1. Go to Settings > Import in Knowlix
  2. Select Notion as the source platform
  3. Upload the .zip file directly — Knowlix will unpack and detect your databases and pages automatically
  4. Knowlix maps each Notion database to the corresponding module (e.g., a task database maps to AI Project)

​
Step 3: Review & Confirm

Before the import is finalized, Knowlix shows you a field mapping preview. Here you can:
  • Verify that Notion database properties (e.g., “Status”, “Assignee”, “Due Date”) are correctly matched to Knowlix fields
  • Choose which databases and pages to import and which to skip
  • Map Notion select/multi-select options to the equivalent values in Knowlix
  • Click Confirm Import to start the migration
