Description from store
Copy as Markdown is a browser extension that helps you copy the following things as Markdown to your system clipboard:
On the web page:
- Selection Text as Markdown
- A Link on the Page
- An Image on the Page, with or without wrapping link
Exporting tabs in the current window, either all or highlighted tabs:
- Current Tab as Link
- List of Links
- Task List (for GitHub-Flavored Markdown)
- Including your tab grouping
You can add Custom Formats to satisfy your needs!
You can also specify keyboard shortcuts to speed up your workflow.
Known Issues
- Cannot grab image.alt when copying image
- On Microsoft Windows, copied page link doesn't come with the link title
[Important] About Permissions
When using certain features such as tab exporting, you will be promoted to grant optional permissions, so that Copy as Markdown may read data from your browser. You may revoke permissions anytime on the Options page, from Extensions > Copy as Markdown > Extension Options.
Copy as Markdown respects your privacy. It does NOT actively collect your browsing history, and will only access tabs when you use tab exporting features.

- (2025-06-19) Justin Yeh: Something that actually does what it claims it is supposed to do? In 2025? Madness!
- (2025-05-16) Kenny Heimbuch: Only seems to work with smallest of selections.
- (2024-11-29) Marcus Widerberg: Awesome! Very nice! Does what it says, configurable. Handles permissions super clear. Wow!
- (2024-11-23) Aman Shah: best tool i used so far
- (2024-10-26) Jeffrey Song (kuunuu): Thank you very much for your efforts! There's a doubt I want to ask, how do you use tabGroups? There are no related options in the popup
- (2024-10-01) Nikhil Kundra: Love this thing, thank you for making it!! Only thing: when I have some tabs auto-suspended due to the Great Suspender (the new, clean version lol)... Jira does seem to parse out the URL from The Great Suspended string and appears like it's going to paste an embedded URL/hyperlinked text... but it fails to remain a clickable, hyperlinked URL after save. Example if you can help! [Google](chrome-extension://bhjpanlkhkaenfmobbmmpffcjalfmpip/suspended.html#ttl=Google&pos=0&uri=https://www.google.com/) Otherwise, I'll just have to "mass-unsuspend" tabs (which takes up some memory and can slow productivity down for a bit) just to copy the Headers/URL of all tabs, paste them in a comment to store them for later, and then close the tabs. Thank you for the great work regardless 🙏

- (2024-06-02) Jue Ling: I like it, but I wonder there can be an option without bullet characters? Not *, not +, not -, just lines of URLs without bullet characters?
- (2024-04-11) Steve Clarke: This was great, but it seems like at some point the copied link(s) started having a markdown bullet prepended. I don't see any way to change this. A setting to not add the bullet would be welcome!
- (2024-04-02) Bruce Zhang: Suggestion: When right-clicking on a hyperlink in a webpage, it would be helpful to be able to copy both the link and the link title at the same time, similar to how we can copy the link title when copying a tab's link. Currently, only the link itself can be copied, and the title cannot be copied.
- (2024-02-03) Farshad Bolouri: Totally unusable, even 1 star is too much
- (2023-12-12) Timur Shtatland: Works quickly and reliably. I am frequently editing markdown documents and adding links there. For example, I use Stack Overflow and other Stack Exchange sites, as well as GitHub wiki and README and other documentation pages in various code repositories. I routinely use "Current tab link" and "All tabs link". My wish list: * Make left click on the extension icon be equivalent to "Current tab link". * Make cmd/ctrl-left click be equivalent to "All tabs link". * Make right click open the same menu that currently opens on left click. Thank you!

- (2023-07-30) Steph Solmundson (Yellow-Submarine): Doesn't work intuitively... I haven't gotten it to work on a the websites I use. It requests to see people's browsing history. Seems invasive, useless. I don't doubt it works for other people, but this isn't acceptable functionality for the privacy they breach.

- (2023-07-26) Victor Movileanu: Why is reading browsing history data necessary? I am happy there is a tool like this and I don't have to build it myself, but I am skeptical when I see it requires this permission.
