How to Export Notion templates?

Exporting Notion templates is a valuable feature that allows users to share their customized templates with others or easily transfer them between personal workspaces. Notion provides two methods for exporting templates: as a .zip file or by sharing a public link. In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to export Notion templates using both methods.

Exporting as a .zip File

Exporting as a .zip file is ideal if you want to share or backup your Notion templates offline. Here's how to export your templates using this method:

1. Open the Notion Workspace that contains the template you want to export.

2. Go to the template you wish to export and click on the ••• menu located at the top right corner of the template.

3. From the dropdown menu, select "Export."

4. A dialog box will appear with two export options: "Export as Markdown & CSV" and "Export as HTML."

5. Select the desired export format depending on your needs. Keep in mind that exporting as Markdown & CSV preserves the content in a plain text format, while exporting as HTML maintains the template's formatting and layout.

6. Once you've selected the preferred export format, a .zip file containing your template will be downloaded to your device.

7. Extract the contents of the downloaded .zip file to access the exported template files.

By following these steps, you can easily export your Notion templates as .zip files and share them with others or store them offline for future use.

Sharing a Public Link

If you prefer to share your Notion templates online and allow others to access and duplicate them directly into their own workspaces, you can use the public link sharing feature. Here's how to share a Notion template using a public link:

1. Open the Notion Workspace that contains the template you wish to share.

2. Go to the template you want to export and click on the ••• menu located at the top right corner of the template.

3. From the dropdown menu, select "Share."

4. In the sharing options panel that appears on the right side of the page, click on "Copy Link" to generate a public link to your template.

5. Share the copied link with the intended recipients through email, chat, or any other preferred communication method.

6. When someone accesses the shared link, they will have the option to duplicate the template into their own Notion Workspace by clicking on "Duplicate."

By utilizing the public link sharing feature, you enable others to easily access and duplicate your templates into their personal workspaces without the need for manual exporting and importing.

Final Thoughts

Notion's ability to export templates as .zip files or share them via public Links provides users with great flexibility in distributing and sharing their customized templates. Whether you prefer offline sharing or online collaboration, these export options make it easy to transfer your templates between workspaces or share them with others.

Note: It's essential to ensure that the content you are exporting complies with any relevant privacy or intellectual property regulations to avoid any legal issues.
