Obsidian Configuration Tutorial
Data Settings → Obsidian Configuration
Cherry Studio supports integration with Obsidian, allowing you to export an entire conversation or a single message into an Obsidian vault.
This process does not require installing any additional Obsidian plugins. However, because Cherry Studio imports into Obsidian using a method similar to the Obsidian Web Clipper, it is recommended that users upgrade Obsidian to the latest version (the current Obsidian version should be at least 1.7.2).If the import fails due to the conversation being too long.
