#Perplexity does not let you export your data, but if you live in #Europe, you can request it anyway appealing to the #GDPR.
It takes over a month to have your data, but once you do... you notice that they give you a json, an excel file, and an assets directory.
My wanted use case, was to have the conversations in a readable format, and in particular, wanted to import some of them into my #Obsidian vault.
Have so generated a #script to convert these exports into #markdown files.
Unfortunately, they do not give us the references used to generate the responses on the GDPR export... which are present when exporting from the web interface. Massively disappointed on that... It's one of the main reasons why I use their service... references 😅 have so made the script remove those empty links`[n]`.
The script was created making massive use of #AI #LLM, but it works, and have made it so it is an easily usable script. It uses the `uv` #python package manager.
It's on version 0.0.1 so super #experimental, but has already converted successfully all my 626 notes. (except for assets, need to work on that part)
feel free to clone it, modify it, improve it 🙂 The license is #GPLv2 . #FOSS #FLOSS
