Dear Obsidian Team,
I’ve found that one fundamental usability feature is currently missing: an import/export settings function. This feature would greatly benefit users who want to:
- Migrate their workspace across multiple devices;
- Backup or share their configuration (including themes, community plugins, hotkeys, etc.);
- Teach others by sharing pre-configured environments;
- Set up a consistent environment quickly after reinstalling Obsidian.
While copying the .obsidian folder works, it’s not intuitive for new users and lacks fine control over what gets exported/imported. A native UI for exporting and importing settings—just like Chrome, VS Code, and many modern apps provide—would be highly appreciated.
Thank you for considering this idea. Looking forward to more amazing improvements in future versions of Obsidian.
