Importing all GoogleKeep notes to Joplin

Here is few steps how to transfer Google Keep notes to Joplin on Windows.

  1. Go to https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout and request notes from Keep. Unzip downloaded file.
  2. Download python script from
    [SOLVED] Importing from Google Keep
    For example that named keep20191210-to-enex6.1.py
    Copy that script directly to Keep folder unzipped in step 1.
  3. Download and install Python - for example Python 3.9.0 or newer
    https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
  4. Start Windows command line - shortcut Win key + R and type "cmd" (Command Line). Type "cd 'path to Keep directory' ". For example "cd c:\Keep". The last row in the cmd window should start with that directory path.
  5. Run the script in that cmd "py keep20191210-to-enex6.1.py" (or other name of the script). After that there should be keep.enex file in that directory ready to be imported in Joplin (File - Import - ENEX)

Note: script mentioned above is not able to transfer everything (for example pictures). So be careful and check if everything seems ok.

Optional: If there is error in the step 4 about date/time you need to download and install library file from
https://pypi.org/project/parsedatetime/ (for example parsedatetime-2.6-py3-none-any.whl). Using cmd from step 4 you need to type "pip install parsedatetime-2.6-py3-none-any.whl" in the directory where that library file is downloaded.
