# Import & Export

## Import Your Content into Taskade

Already have notes, docs, or spreadsheets in other tools? You can bring everything into Taskade in three steps.

### Quick Start: Import in 3 Steps

1. Go to [taskade.com/create](https://www.taskade.com/create)
2. Choose your import method (see below)
3. Pick how you want to use the content:
   * **Upload as Knowledge** — your AI agents can learn from it
   * **Import as Context** — use it as reference material
   * **Convert to Projects** — turn it into actionable tasks and workflows

{% hint style="info" %}
**Imported content becomes part of your Workspace DNA.** That means your AI agents can learn from everything you bring in — docs, spreadsheets, presentations, and more.
