How to save selected Coda document content as Markdown
A Markdown export helps keep readable Coda content in an editable text document. The result is useful for reference or a handoff when the selected page's structure is preserved.
Start with the right material.
- What you provide
- selected readable content from one Coda document page.
- The intended result
- Selected document content as Markdown.
How the workflow works.
Keep headings, lists and readable links in order. Represent the supplied content rather than attempting to recreate interactive controls, formulas or hidden data sources in plain text.
What to check in the result.
Preview the output and compare important sections with the source. Call out content that was not readable, and do not describe a selected-page export as a complete document or workspace backup.
Preview the Markdown to check headings, lists and links as well as the words. Keep source references with the document so a reviewer can trace important statements back to the material you supplied.
Learn from the worked example.
The downloadable Markdown example shows one possible organization of the result. Read it alongside the source example and notice which statements are recorded facts, proposed wording or questions still needing an answer.
The supplied example is illustrative. It is not a recorded run on your data.
