Move an Obsidian Vault Into Ordovia Without Starting Over
Short answer: Ordovia can bulk-import the .md files from an Obsidian vault. Your Markdown notes and wikilink-style connections can continue inside Codex, where they can also connect to Quests, projects, books, and the daily command center. The import is a migration step, not live two-way sync.
Import the notes you already own
A migration should not force you to copy and paste years of writing. Select the Markdown files from your vault and bring them into Ordovia in bulk. Start with a backup of the original vault so you always have a clean return point.
Markdown first, app second
Plain .md files keep the core of your knowledge readable outside any single tool. Ordovia’s Codex supports Markdown editing, Preview and Split views, plus wikilinks and backlinks, so the writing workflow remains familiar after import.
Know what an import is not
Import is not a live two-way connection to Obsidian. App-specific plugins, themes, automation, and unsupported attachment behavior do not automatically become Ordovia features. Review a small sample first, then move the rest when the result matches your expectations.
Connect knowledge to daily work
The reason to move is not merely to view the same archive elsewhere. Link imported notes to the Quest, project, book, or Challenge they support. That is where a vault stops being a separate knowledge island and becomes part of a daily operating system.
Frequently asked questions
Can I import an entire Obsidian vault?
Ordovia supports bulk import of Markdown (.md) files from an Obsidian vault. Back up the vault and test a representative sample before a large migration.
Is the import a two-way sync with Obsidian?
No. It is a one-time import workflow, not live two-way synchronization.
Will every Obsidian plugin and attachment move?
No. Markdown content and supported links are the focus; plugin-specific behavior, themes, automation, and unsupported attachments should be reviewed separately.
