Migrate Evernote HTML exports into a Notion database

evernote2notion

Migrate your Evernote notes into a Notion database — with full fidelity.

• Converts Evernote's HTML export (higher quality than ENEX) into native Notion blocks
• Uploads images, PDFs, and other file attachments using Notion's file upload API
• Resumes automatically if interrupted; skips already-imported notes
• Handles Notion API quirks: rate limits, payload size limits, WAF-blocked content

Installation

pipx install git+https://github.com/koichikawamura/evernote2notion.git

Setup

1. Export your notes from Evernote

In Evernote, select all notes → File → Export Notes → HTML. You'll get a folder of year-named subfolders:

my-export/
  2018/
  2019/
  ...
  2025/

2. Create a Notion integration

1. Go to https://www.notion.so/my-integrations and create a new Internal integration.
2. Copy the Internal Integration Secret (starts with secret_).

3. Share a Notion page with the integration

1. In Notion, open (or create) the page that will contain your imported notes.
2. Click "…" → "Add connections" and select your integration.
3. Copy the page ID from the URL — it's the 32-character hex string at the end:

   https://www.notion.so/My-Page-3a8f2b1c4d5e6f7a8b9c0d1e2f3a4b5c
                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   

Usage

export NOTION_TOKEN=secret_xxx

# Test: parse notes and report block counts without uploading
evernote2notion --export-dir my-export --dry-run

# Import a small batch first
evernote2notion --export-dir my-export --parent-page-id <PAGE_ID> --limit 10

# Import a single year
evernote2notion --export-dir my-export --parent-page-id <PAGE_ID> --year 2022

# Import everything
evernote2notion --export-dir my-export --parent-page-id <PAGE_ID>

# Remove duplicate pages (if you re-imported notes)
evernote2notion --parent-page-id <PAGE_ID> --deduplicate

Progress is saved to import_progress.json in the current directory after every note. If the run is interrupted, re-run the same command and it picks up where it left off.

What gets imported

Each note becomes a page in an "Evernote Notes" Notion database:

Property	Type	Description
Name	Title	Note title
Year	Select	Year the note was created
Created	Date	Original creation timestamp
Updated	Date	Last updated timestamp
Tags	Multi-select	Evernote tags
Source URL	URL	Original URL (for web clips)
Source	Select	Source app (web.clip, mobile, etc.)

Note content is converted to native Notion blocks: paragraphs, headings, bullet/numbered lists, checkboxes, code blocks, tables, quotes, dividers, images, PDFs, and other file attachments.
