    1. ⚡️ Ideas
    2. Complete backup export and import
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff May 20, 2025

    This first part (and what most seem to be talking about here) is implemented now with 'Export workspace to Markdown'! :)

    Tana Learn -> Export workspace

    There is not any in-product full-workspace-importer for Markdown, though it would be possible to community build one using import-tools: https://github.com/tanainc/tana-import-tools. This would be a lossy process for any Tana-specific features though, since those are not replicate in Markdown. If you want a full version of all your data, that is still available in the Tana JSON database dump. :) Community users have used that JSON file for very advanced use cases before, like RAG, 'chat with your workspace', a live graph view and other things previously.

    Also, not mentioned, but we've also fixed a lot of 'Paste markdown' bugs in Tana, so it's a lot better to get Markdown data into Tana that way now. :)

    This seems to be another idea about full-workspace markdown import, since I'm setting this one as 'Fixed': https://ideas.tana.inc/posts/598-native-import-into-tana

    2. Export of single node and its children as a document
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff May 19, 2025

    This is now implemented! (The markdown part in the first post as 'Download as ... markdown').

    You can read about it in Tana Learn -> Copy/paste in Tana -> Download a subset of nodes. :)

    2. View Tana in Firefox Sidebar

    This would be nice to have indeed.

    Extensions are allowed to overwrite Content Security Policy (CSP) if I recall correctly. So you should already be able to embed in an extension.

    2. Exclude content of specified workspaces from showing up in searches
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff Jul 4, 2023

    For the @-mention case, you can go to your home node, and remove the 'Allow content from' on the other workspaces. And that should stop it popping up there.

    For global-search there is a workaround, you can write the ID of your home node, and > and then your search to only search within one workspace. It also works to use Ctrl K -> Search Within on the home node to have it prefill with homeNodeId > for you.

    Surprised there isn't anything basic available yet.

    Depending on what you mean with 'basic', there is the full actual JSON graph that Tana uses available. This is possible to parse and transform into any other output, since this is the core internal model of Tana. So it has everything mentioned in this idea (references, inline references, links, searches, commands, tags, ...everything), except it only links to the media files using an URL (it doesn't include the files).

    Before anyone says so; that isn't what this idea is about. It's about a export that you can use elsewhere or even manually if you choose to leave Tana, not an internal data dump. :)

    2. Tana API ✦ Add data to Tana and access it with API
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff Jun 6, 2023

    There is now an official Tana Input API. So part of this has been done! Please try it out, you can add supertags and fields.

    https://github.com/tanainc/tana-input-api-samples

    There isn't any export API yet.

    2. Recurring Date Field
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff Jun 6, 2023

    It is worth mentioning that this is possible to build now using the Command Node 'Insert relative date'. Like RJ Nestor has done (a demo of it in use here): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ikLbN0JoeY

    2. Voice recording transcription seems to eliminate the recording
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff May 2, 2023

    This was a bug, and it has since been fixed.

    You should be able to play your audio now. :)

    2. Ability to turn off "Time" checkbox when selecting a date
    Odin Urdland Odin Urdland Staff Mar 27, 2023

    We'll fix this in an upcoming release. It should not add a time by default. :)
