I am curious if Dynalist will import JSON files. I would like to bring my data from Roam Research. Thanks!
JSON is a format, not a specification, so it really depends on how they implemented their export.
Could you post some sample JSON data so we can take a look?
sorry, I did mean format. I’ll post something shortly. Thanks!
I’m not sure if this is helpful but this is what I can grab from the JSON export:
array [1]
0 {5}

It appears that Roam allows now a Markdown export as well. Is that easier to import to Dynalist?
Unfortunately Markdown needs to be rendered and then copied. For example you can use this website: http://demo.showdownjs.com/
Paste Markdown on the left, and on the right you’ve got HTML that you can copy & paste into Dynalist. It’s indeed a pain for a large number of pages
