Importing from other apps
Watch the videoBringing things in
Bring your snippets over from another text expander in a few clicks instead of retyping them one by one.
+ New in the toolbar has importers for:
- TextExpander (CSV export from Import/Export → Export in their web app)
- aText (CSV)
- Browser extension package (JSON from the TypeFire Chrome extension)
Imports show a preview and let you pick the destination collection first. Header rows are detected and skipped.
What transfers: abbreviations, bodies (plain stays plain, HTML becomes rich text), and labels as titles.
What does not: fill-in fields (%fill:...%), date macros (%Y, %m) and nested references. Use TypeFire's own tokens instead.
