Knowledge Items to Anki

Hi,

Anki is a powerful tool for memorizing knowledge. So I would like to request a feature that can automatically transfer knowledge items to Anki as flashcards. Maybe the title can be on the front side, and the content attached to the title can be on the back side. I am not sure if this feature takes a lot of time to get launched, or can it be launched in the future? But I am keen on this feature and thanks for your consideration.

Regards,

Mingming

Hi, Mingming

Thank you for your feature request. I had a look at the Anki manual. Apparently this tool can import plain text files with semicolon separated content.

Please find attached a macro that exports the knowledge items' core statements, full text, reference and page range to such a file.

Here's how you run a macro in Citavi: https://github.com/Citavi/Macros

I hope this helps to get you started.

Best regards

Hi Sebastian,

Thank you for the Macro. However, the csv file the Macro exported is so messy that I can't import it into Anki. I will transfer knowledge items to Anki manually anyway. Hope the feature comes out soon. By the way, AnkiConnect, an add-on of Anki, facilitate the connection between Anki and other Apps. I am not a developer, so I have to leave the work to the amazing Citavi team. Thanks again!

Best,

Mingming

Hi, Mingming,

could you upload a sample file showing what Anki expects from an import file? I can check then if the macro can adapted easily. Thank you.

Best regards

Sebastian
