# What does 'Export Notes' do?

The 'Export Notes' feature allows you to download all of your campaign notes as markdown files in a ZIP archive. This makes it easy to backup your notes, share them with others, or view them in any markdown-compatible application.

It's available under the three-dot menu on you campaign home.

### What gets exported

- All campaign notes (shared with the entire campaign)
- All private notes (your personal campaign notes)
- Complete folder hierarchy and organization

### How it's organized

> The exported ZIP file is structured as follows:
>
> {campaign-name}-notes.zip/
> ├── Campaign/
> │   ├── {folder-name}/
> │   │   └── {note-title}.md
> │   └── {note-title}.md
> └── Private/
>     ├── {folder-name}/
>     │   └── {note-title}.md
>     └── {note-title}.md

### Features

- Preserves your folder structure and note hierarchy
- Converts rich text formatting to standard markdown
- Handles duplicate note names automatically
- Skips trashed notes
- Creates separate folders for campaign-wide vs. private notes

Note

The export converts your notes from the collaborative editor format to clean markdown that can be opened in any text editor or markdown viewer.
