Bulk Import

Bulk Import adds many sources to one Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM) notebook at once. You can bulk import links, open browser tabs, an RSS feed, a CSV file or a crawled website into a target notebook.

Why use Bulk Import?​

Adding 40 links one at a time takes all afternoon. Here you paste them once and wait.

How do I use it?​

  1. Click Bulk Import in the sidebar.
  2. Under Target Notebook, pick the notebook that will receive the sources. Click + New to make a new one.
  3. Under Import Method, choose a panel. They are below.
  4. Fill it in and start the import.

The five panels​

Paste one web address per line. Kortex checks them and imports the good ones. Click Import Links.

Next to it is Domain Router. It sends each link to the notebook your rules pick. It needs Kortex Pro.

Browser Tabs​

Lists the pages open in Chrome right now. Tick the ones to import. You can filter the list.

The Open tabs panel

RSS Feed​

An RSS feed is a list of a website's newest articles that a computer can read. Paste a feed address and Kortex lists its latest items. Tick the ones to add. See What is RSS.

CSV Upload​

A CSV file is a simple spreadsheet. Put your links in it and upload it. A sample file is there to start from.

The CSV panel

Web Crawler​

A crawler starts on one page and follows its links, like a person clicking from page to page. You set how deep it goes. It lists what it found before you import.

The Crawl panel

While it runs​

A progress bar shows how far the import has got. Click Stop to end it early. What was already added stays.

What if something goes wrong?​

  • If some links did not import, check that each is a full address that starts with https://.
  • If a crawl finds too many pages, make the depth smaller and try again.
