Copy Link or Image as Markdown code
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.
Latest reviews
- (2023-11-21) Daniel Grossfeld: Incredibly useful to preserve links from multiple tabs for documentation.
- (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.

- (2016-10-22) @Yu-Cheng Chuang 拜託增加「快捷鍵」對「選中的頁面鏈接」支持啦~ 這個擴展我覺得超棒但沒什麽人提及的功能就是: 一個標題有點長的頁面鏈接 可以選中標題的一部分,然後右鍵->Copy as Markdown -> 鏈接 這樣可以完美得獲取一個簡練的標題+完整的網址 可惜的是,現在步驟有點多 有沒可能再註冊一個快捷鍵 用來快速完成上述步驟呢? 謝謝作者這麽棒的小工具。 配合現下流行的 (支持 Markdown 語法的)IM 比如 telegram, 聊天真的是不要太快捷 \(^o^)/
- (2016-01-06) Rex Schrader: Does what it says on the tin. Very nice.

- (2015-09-10) coash Gerrie: 哈哈哈哈 本来要是没有我就想做的.
