Thanks - I partly got this to work but it only seems to import the title of the note, not the content. I'm trying to import my 1000s of nvALT text files into Quiver. Any help much appreciated.

@pl0

it gets the title from the file title. see in the code where it mentions "content" on line 50?

Just change that to be something else, For example you make it the first line by making

content = {"title": lines[0], "cells": cells}
