How it works
- Export your Session Buddy data as JSON from Settings → Export.
- Drop the JSON file here, or paste the export into the fallback text box.
- The converter recursively walks the file, finds every tab URL, and groups links by the nearest session and window it can identify.
- Choose which sessions to include, then download bookmarks HTML, CSV, or Markdown.
Move a Session Buddy export into portable bookmarks
Session Buddy exports have changed across versions, so a converter that expects one exact file layout breaks easily. This tool takes the safer route: it reads through the whole file, checks every nested part, and collects links wherever it finds a web address that starts with http or https. When the surrounding data includes a session name, title, generated timestamp, or windows list, that context becomes the bookmark folder name.
To get the export, open Session Buddy, go to Settings, choose Export, and select JSON. JSON is the recommended format because it is more likely to preserve sessions and windows. The resulting bookmarks file imports into Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and most bookmark managers.
A small pushback: do the export before uninstalling Session Buddy or any session manager. Extensions that store saved tabs in the browser's internal storage can lose that data when the extension is removed. A bookmarks HTML backup is boring, but boring is exactly what you want when you are rescuing years of saved tabs.
