Export ChatGPT conversations
How to export all your ChatGPT conversations in one file, what the file contains, and how to use it in another tool or keep it as a backup.
Import conversations
Start with the conversations you already have
Months of chats in ChatGPT and Claude hold prices, plans and decisions. Upload them once and your tools can come back to them whenever you need.
From export file to working memory
- 1
Export your chats
Request your data file from ChatGPT or Claude settings. The download link arrives by email.
- 2
Upload and review
Upload the conversations file and choose the ones you want. Nothing is saved before you review it.
- 3
Use it in any tool
What you import becomes part of your memory, readable by every connected tool.
Step-by-step export instructions are in the guide to exporting ChatGPT conversations.
Why import at all?
When AI tools move your memory from one to another, they move a short summary about you, not the detail of your work.
The detail is in the conversations themselves: why you turned that offer down, what you agreed with the supplier, how you reached that decision.
Worth knowing before you upload
- Import accepts the official export files from ChatGPT and Claude.
- There is an upper limit on file size and on conversations per upload. Bring a large archive in batches.
- Review what you import, and leave out anything unrelated to your work or containing other people's data.
- Do not upload passwords or access keys, even if they appear in an old chat.
No past conversations?
Start with the setup questions. Your tool asks about your work, projects and preferences, and saves your answers as notes you can review.
Common questions
Does import keep running after the first time?
No. Import happens when you upload a file. After that, things are saved when you ask for them to be saved as you work.
Do my chats stay in ChatGPT after import?
Yes. Import copies, it does not move. Your chats stay where they are.
Can I import Gemini conversations?
Import currently covers ChatGPT and Claude files. Anything from other tools can be saved as you work in them.
