Import Highlights

How to Import from Readwise

How to migrate your Readwise highlights to Screvi

How It Works

Screvi syncs your highlights directly from Readwise using the Readwise API. It imports all your books, articles, and other sources along with their highlights, notes, favorites, and tags.

Setup

  1. Go to Integrations in the web app
  2. Find Readwise and click Connect
  3. Enter your Readwise API access token (find it at readwise.io/access_token)
  4. Click Sync to start the import

What Gets Imported

  • Books, articles, tweets, podcasts, and other sources
  • All highlights with their text content
  • Notes attached to highlights
  • Favorite markers
  • Color tags
  • Timestamps

Articles (with URLs) are saved to your Screvi Articles library. Everything else goes to your Sources & Highlights.

Incremental Sync

After the first full import, future syncs only fetch new highlights added since the last sync. You can also trigger a full re-sync at any time.
