Copy to Markdown

Copy any highlighted page as Markdown from the Web Highlights extension or web app, then paste into Obsidian, Notion, Capacities, or any editor that supports Markdown.

How it works

1. Open a highlighted page — In the web app or the browser extension sidebar, go to a page that has highlights.
2. Copy Markdown — Open the three dots (⋮) menu in the top-right and choose Copy Markdown.
3. Paste — Paste into Notion, Obsidian, Capacities, or another tool. Highlights, notes, tags, and (when available) banner images are included in the copied content.

What gets copied

• Highlight text and structure (including formatted highlighting when enabled)
• Notes attached to highlights
• Tags
• Page title, URL, and related metadata where applicable

TIP

Copy Markdown is separate from the Notion and Capacities one-click API exports. Use Copy Markdown when you want full control of where you paste content; use Notion export or Capacities export for direct workspace integration (Ultimate).
