Custom Markdown Preview

Custom Markdown Preview lets you inspect and shape the final Markdown before downloading it.

Use it when a conversation contains long research output, code, generated images, presentation notes, or tool activity and you want control over what goes into your Obsidian note.

Open Custom Preview

1. Open a Genspark conversation.
2. Click the extension icon.
3. Click Custom Preview.
4. A new preview tab opens.

The preview renders the conversation in a Markdown-like layout so you can review structure before saving.

Select messages

Each message block has a selection control. You can include or exclude:

• Your prompts
• Final Genspark answers
• Intermediate Bot progress
• Tool calls

Quick filters help you switch selections faster:

• All
• Clear
• Only Prompts
• Only Responses

The selection count shows how many message blocks will be exported.

Use export settings

Click Export Settings in the preview tab to review the same export options used by the popup:

• YAML frontmatter
• Final replies
• Intermediate assistant progress
• Tool calls

Use these settings with message selection to create either a clean reading note or a complete technical archive.

Preview supported Markdown

The preview is designed to help you inspect:

• Headings
• Lists
• Tables
• Links
• Quotes
• Fenced code blocks
• Mermaid diagrams
• YAML frontmatter
• Images

If generated assets are available, the final export can include asset references and local files next to the Markdown.

Export Markdown

After selection:

1. Confirm the selected message count.
2. Click Export Markdown.
3. Save the file through Chrome Downloads.
4. Move the Markdown and related asset folder into your Obsidian vault.

Recommended workflows
