How to Save Perplexity Threads for Import into AILibrary

Locate Perplexity thread export options and check what export formats can be imported into AILibrary.

Important: Provider interfaces and export contents can change. Confirm the provider’s current procedure before exporting private data.

Step 1 — Export your Perplexity conversations

  1. Sign in to Perplexity and open Library or History to locate the thread you want to save.
  2. Open the thread and inspect its sharing or export menu, if available for your account and plan.
  3. Save the available export locally. Some Perplexity interfaces offer single-thread document exports such as PDF, Word or Markdown.
  4. Before importing, confirm that the saved file matches an import format supported by your installed version of AILibrary; document/PDF exports are not necessarily supported as conversation imports.

Export guidance: Perplexity guidance on thread exports.

A reliable bulk history-export route suitable for direct AILibrary import could not be confirmed from public documentation. Do not assume that a PDF or shared URL can be imported as a native conversation.

Step 2 — Import the export into AILibrary

  1. Open AILibrary and choose File → Import Source.
  2. Select Perplexity from the available providers.
  3. Choose the provider export file in the format supported by your version of AILibrary. If the file is not recognised, do not convert it by changing its filename extension.
  4. Check the imported conversation count and sample messages, then organise or export them.

Step 3 — Search, organise and export

Once a compatible export is imported, use AILibrary’s full-text search, tags, notes, favourites and document exports. Keep the original source archive securely in case you need to repeat the import.

Troubleshooting

  • No conversations imported? Check that your export contains conversation history and that you selected the matching import source.
  • Export unavailable? Check your account or organisation's permissions and the provider's help page.
  • Unexpected formatting? Export formats evolve. Try the latest AILibrary release and consult support.
  • Privacy: Keep original archives secure and avoid sharing private conversation exports in support requests.

Organise your Perplexity history
