This is a simple Readwise “export template” (Exports to RoamResearch).

I know many of you’re not interested in this. And I know this template is not a big deal for many.

I am just publishing this for those few still using RoamResearch as their second brain.

The above screenshot shows how your exports will look in Roam Research.

How to use this template?

  1. Go to https://readwise.io/export/roam/preferences
  2. Please copy the code below and paste it into the appropriate section (refer to the attached screenshot at the end of this post).
  3. Start to export.

If you want the old notes to be replaced, you must delete them from your Roam graph (database). Beware, you will lose all your comments on the pages. Note: Search with the tag “#readwise” to pull all the pages exported by ReadWise.

The typical export configuration page looks like the screenshot below.
