Should be an essential feature in my opinion really.

Preferably in a format that is diff'able by git (like markdown or CSV) - so data could be exported and stored (or even synced) via a GitHub repo.

It could be zipped into a single file.

Hey @annieappflowy bumping this new spawn of your 2013 FR #3334

Using AppFlowy as a knowledge base for LLM context window really needs bulk export of .zip of markdown files or something else that allows power users to plug data into more limited use environments.

I believe this issue also loosely resembles #7680 in terms of not having to manually export page by page, even if they are nested. Being able to bulk manage nested pages like Notion, Obsidian or Outline is a must.

Did team assign this to any dev? Do you need support?

Hi @canokaue , thank you for the insight. We do plan to support it. The developer who will work on this is currently working on mobile search, which is a missing feature highly requested by our community.

Would like to see the ability to import and export notes from Appflowy in a format that allows you to use the exported file and import it to another Appflowy self hosted instance.
