To bring past ChatGPT conversations into NotebookLM, use AI chat history import in NotebookLM Ultra Exporter Pro. It reads your recent chats through the ChatGPT account already signed in to the browser, lets you filter by keyword, and imports one source per chat or a merged source.

## Quick facts

| Item | Detail |
| --- | --- |
| Where | Import center, AI chats method |
| Plan | Pro |
| Allowance | Pro only. No extension daily quota; individual tools still have task caps. |
| Data flow | The material you select is sent to Google NotebookLM. Capture reads the source site from your browser. |

## Steps

1. Install [NotebookLM Ultra Exporter](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/notebooklm-ultra-exporter/afchokljnhhggkhedfbmkcmdagjmjchj) in desktop Chrome, then refresh any open NotebookLM (Gemini Notebook) tab.
2. Connect Pro: open the extension's account panel and sign in with the Google account you bought Pro with.
3. Sign in to ChatGPT in the same browser.
4. Open the import center, choose AI chats and grant access to the site.
5. Enter a keyword or leave it empty for all recent chats, then tick the chats or Q&A to import.
6. Confirm the target notebook and submit.

## Limits to know

- It uses the site interface, which can change and temporarily break the import.
- No API key is requested; it needs a valid signed-in session and site permission.
- With a keyword you can import only the matching questions and answers.
- Google's own limits still apply: sources per notebook, file size and accepted file types are decided by NotebookLM, and Pro does not raise them.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is it free to import your ChatGPT history into NotebookLM in bulk?

No. This import method is part of Ultra Exporter Pro. The basic methods (links, pasted text, files, tabs, the current page, RSS and YouTube) are free within 20 imports per day.

### Can updated chats be re-imported?

Yes. Save the import as a recipe with scheduled checks; an updated chat is re-imported and the old source for the same chat is removed.

### Does importing count toward the NotebookLM source limit?

Yes. Every imported item becomes a source in the notebook and counts toward its source limit, which depends on your Google plan. To free up slots, see [merge sources into one](https://nlmexporter.com/guides/import/merge-sources-to-notebooklm).
