Changelog

Track the evolution of ChatGPT to Obsidian with our complete changelog. See what’s new, what’s fixed, and what’s improved.

Current source baseline — v8.2.0

• Redesigned popup workflow: The popup now validates the Download Folder, exposes six filename presets and the Download Images toggle, and groups four export actions: current chat, Custom Preview, opened tabs, and Bulk Page
• AIExportHub account access: Users can sign in to verify premium access automatically, disconnect the account, subscribe from the extension, or continue using purchase-email verification
• Custom Export Preview: Preview the complete conversation, select individual messages, keep only prompts or responses, show or hide chat time, and save the selection as Markdown
• Opened-tabs export: Export unique regular and Group Chat conversations opened in the current Chrome window, with progress shown in the popup
• Conversation-count optimization: Bulk Download estimates totals from the first three history pages for speed and provides a refresh action to load the exact total
• Dedicated Library and Images workflows: Filter by filename/date, select visible items, download individual files or ZIP archives, skip downloaded IDs, and generate Markdown/HTML indexes
• Account-aware free limits: The UI reports remaining daily exports and provides direct Sign In, Subscribe, and Activate actions when a limit is reached
