[Question] How do you export Bookmarks?
At the moment, there is no functionality to export bookmarks directly from Webmarks. However, it is designed so that you can grant any other app or code access to the raw data (if you have a remote storage account connected).
Is there some kind of standard format for bookmark collections that you would be able to import elsewhere? If so, I would consider adding an export button for that, as it should be easy to implement.
Hello there!
Many thanks for considering an export function. Here are some details:
Most apps accept this format: Netscape Bookmark File Format (Internet Explorer) | Microsoft Docshttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/platform-apis/aa753582(v=vs.85)?redirectedfrom=MSDN
Here is an example: Format of HTML bookmarks file | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Supporthttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1319392
Format of HTML bookmarks file | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Supporthttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1319392 I want to set up a bunch of bookmarks in FF [84.0.1] and I cannot find out what the acceptable bookmark format is. [the bookmarks will come from someone else so I'd like to write a program to generate the appropriate import file]. support.mozilla.org

Greetings @raucao have you had a chance to look at exporting bookmarks. Many thanks.
Hey @navigator8. I haven't looked at it yet, I'm afraid.
However, I'm currently testing a new version of Webmarks, which has support for folders and readlater items, as well as a progress indicator for syncing many bookmarks in one go (e.g. during initial sync). Once that's live, I will have a look at export and import of bookmark files, since it's definitely needed (and needed both ways).
