Notion isn't a dedicated flashcard app, so there's no export button. Here's how to move toggle-list or database flashcards into Anki.
Last updated October 2026
Notion has no flashcard export feature because it isn't built as a flashcard app; people build flashcards manually with toggle lists (question in the toggle header, answer inside) or a database with Question and Answer columns. Notion's own CSV export of a database gives you exactly the two columns Anki needs. For a page built with toggle lists, you'll need to copy the pairs into a spreadsheet by hand before exporting to CSV and importing into Anki.
Skip the manual steps: use the free converter
Upload the CSV from your Notion database export and download a ready-to-import .apkg. Extra columns like tags and dates are ignored, so there's nothing to trim or map.
Open the Notion to Anki converterOpen the database
Switch to table view so you can see the Question and Answer columns (or whatever you've named them) clearly.
Export as CSV
Click the ••• menu in the top right of the database page → Export → Markdown & CSV. Notion downloads a .zip; unzip it to get the .csv with your columns intact.
Trim extra columns
For Anki's own CSV import, open the file in a spreadsheet and delete any columns beyond Question and Answer (tags, dates, status), or your fields will misalign. The Notion to Anki converter skips this step and ignores extra columns.
Import into Anki
File → Import, select the CSV, map Question to Front and Answer to Back, choose Basic or Cloze, pick your deck, and click Import.
Notion's export doesn't cleanly separate a toggle's header from its hidden content into two columns, so a page built with toggle-list flashcards needs manual copying: paste each question into Column A and its answer into Column B of a spreadsheet, then follow the same CSV export and Anki import steps above.
Building flashcards from Notion notes instead?
If you're starting from general Notion notes rather than existing flashcards, export the pages from Notion as a PDF and upload it to StudyCards AI to generate an Anki-ready deck directly, skipping the toggle-list step entirely.

Upload your class notes or a PDF to StudyCards AI and export a ready-made .apkg, no rebuilding toggle lists as spreadsheet rows.
