Re-importing
You can import the same pages, documents or databases again. Xenith recognizes what it imported before, so it updates instead of duplicating.
Pages
- A page you haven't edited in Xenith is updated if the source changed.
- A page you have edited is left exactly as it is and counted in the report under "Left as it is".
- Where you put a page and what you named it stay as you set them.
- A page you deleted in Xenith is created again.
- A page deleted in the source is left alone in Xenith and counted.
- Importing into a different project makes separate copies; projects never share imported pages.
Databases
- Rows are matched by their Notion page, so a row isn't duplicated.
- A cell you edited in Xenith keeps your value while the other cells of the row update.
- New columns, options and rows from Notion are added. A column you deleted stays deleted. A column you renamed keeps your name.
- Views you made are never replaced.
- Rows deleted in Notion are left alone and counted.
Re-importing is a one-time copy, not a connection. To keep a Notion database up to date as you work, see Sync a Notion database.
Word files
Word files are identified by their content: identical bytes change nothing, and an edited file becomes a new page. See Import Word files.
