+ 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.
