QUESTIONS · EXPORTING
How do I export NotebookLM to Markdown?
Short answer
NotebookLM has no Markdown export. NotebookLM Ultra Exporter adds one for notes, reports, chat history, sources, mind maps, flashcards, quizzes and data tables. Open the item, click Export and choose Markdown, or copy Markdown to the clipboard. Markdown export is free with no daily quota.
What to know
- Headings, lists, tables, code blocks and equations are kept as Markdown syntax.
- Suits Obsidian, Notion, Logseq, GitHub and static site generators.
- A whole notebook can be written as a folder of Markdown files.
Google changes these menus often. The item's own menu in your notebook shows what is built in today.
Free or Pro?
Free, with no daily export quota and no website account needed. Pro covers the extension only; it does not include a Google subscription or raise NotebookLM's own limits. Current prices are on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
Are images included in Markdown?
