In my case, I have already synchronized everything using the plugin I mentioned, and didn’t want to create another few hundred duplicate notes in my vault. If you haven’t synced Readwise to Obsidian before, and you just want to pull in everything, leave it disabled. In this section, you can choose which books/podcasts/other content in Readwise you want to export. So my Page metadata section looks like this: I don’t see the need for Page metadata since this is what I use YAML front matter for, so I removed the matadata section and the document tags (I never use those either). I did make some changes in this section just to tweak how I want information to be displayed. Here are the things you can change in this section Use Custom FormattingĬustom formatting is disabled by default, and lets you choose how the final note looks. I left this enabled in case I read a book that has the same name as a blog post about the book, for example. Disabling this option means all new notes will be created in the directory specified in the Obsidian plugin settings, which we’ll cover later. For example, Kindle highlights will appear in the folder Books. When enabled, Readwise will put your highlights in different folders depending on its source. Group Files in Category Foldersīy default, this will be enabled. On the Obsidian Exports page, you’ll be presented with a few options. If you don’t want to change any of the configuration settings, you can then skip ahead to triggering the sync on Obsidian, but let’s run through the options anyway. You’ll need to sign into your Readwise account if you haven’t already.Īt this point, your Readwise account will have been connected to the Readwise Official plugin, but you won’t have triggered any syncs yet. Head back to the Settings menu and scroll down to the “Plugin Options” section, and then click Readwise Official.Ĭlick connect as highlighted in orange above, and a browser window will open, showing the Obsidian Export options. Connect your Readwise account to the Obsidian plugin Then, click Browse and search for Readwise Official. You’ll need to turn Safe mode off for community plugins if you haven’t already. In your Obsidian vault, go to Settings > Community plugins. From Readwise on YouTube Install the Obsidian plugin.
