Obsidian wikis store knowledge as interconnected Markdown pages; exporting their knowledge graph into standard formats enables external analysis, visualization, and integration with other tools without re-running in-app queries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Export the wiki's wikilink graph to structured formats: graph.json, graph.graphml, cypher.txt, and graph.html for Gephi, Neo4j, or custom tooling.
  • Optional visibility-based filtering to exclude internal or sensitive pages before export.
  • Use cases include archiving knowledge graphs, performing graph analytics, or visualizing relationships in external tools.

Quick Start
