How to Start the Import

1

Open Craft

Open Craft (native app or web).
2

Start the import

Click the Import icon at the bottom of the left sidebar and select Import from Evernote. This opens the import page at docs.craft.do/import/evernote.

Export Your Notes from Evernote

Exports can only be done from the Evernote desktop app — it is not possible to export from Evernote Web. See Evernote’s export guide for detailed instructions.
1

Open the Evernote desktop app

Launch the Evernote desktop application on your computer.
2

Select the notebook(s) to export

To select multiple notebooks, hold Shift while clicking.
3

Export as .enex

Right-click on the selected note(s) and choose Export…. Select ENEX as the file format.
When exporting from Evernote, you can choose what to include in the .enex file. Make sure to select the data you want to bring into Craft:
  • Tags
  • Comments
  • Tasks
  • Reminders
If any of these are not included in your exported .enex files, they will not be imported into Craft. There is no way to add them after the fact without re-exporting from Evernote.

Upload and Import

1

Upload your .enex files

Drag and drop your .enex files onto the upload area, or click to browse. You can upload up to 50 files at a time.
2

Choose your destination

Select the Craft Space where you want your Evernote notes to appear. Optionally select a destination folder to organize your imported notes.
3

Configure options

Optionally toggle Include comments to import comments from your Evernote notes.
4

Start the import

Click Import. You’ll see a progress bar as your files are uploaded and imported. You can close the page at any time — the import will continue in the background.

After the Import

Once complete, you’ll see a confirmation with a button that takes you to Craft, where you’ll find your imported documents.

Troubleshooting

Make sure you selected ENEX as the export format in Evernote, not HTML or another format.
You can upload a maximum of 50 .enex files per import. Split larger exports into batches.
Re-export from Evernote and make sure to include them in the export options.
Try restarting the import. If the issue persists, contact support.
