Create and Organize Notes

A Recoble note is the basic unit of work. Use it to organize text, images, tables, links, and child notes in one document.

Create a New Note

  1. Click the Add button at the top of the left sidebar.
  2. In the window that opens, choose Blank note.
  3. Enter a note title in the title area.
  4. Click the body and start writing.

💡 Tip: To create a note directly without the window, click the ▾ next to Add and choose Note. If you have saved templates, you can also pick one from My templates in the same list.

💡 Tip: Giving a note a title first makes it easier to find in the sidebar and in search results.

Bring In Content from Elsewhere

You can move text from other services or files into notes.

  1. Click the Add button in the sidebar.
  2. Under Import at the bottom of the window, choose Import from another space or Import from a file.
  3. Follow the instructions to choose what to import.

✋ Note: Import from a file supports Notion, Evernote, Word, Markdown, and Hangul (HWP) files.

Write the Body

In the editor, you can use blocks such as paragraphs, headings, lists, tables, and images.

  1. Type in an empty line.
  2. Use the toolbar or the slash (/) menu to add heading, list, table, and image blocks.
  3. To organize items like a table, put a workboard in the note with the Link workboard block.
  4. If you like, add a cover or an icon above the title to decorate the note.

✋ Note: You cannot edit locked notes or shared notes where you only have view access.

Organize with Child Notes

Use child notes to group related notes under a bigger topic.

  1. In the sidebar, drag a note and drop it under another note.
  2. Expand the parent note to see its child notes.
  3. In the body, choose Create child note from the slash menu. Recoble creates a child note and puts a link to it in the body.

✋ Note: You cannot put notes or workboards under a workboard. Put them under a note instead.

Find Notes Again with Tags and Search

  1. Click the Add tag field above the note title.
  2. Enter a tag.
  3. Find related notes from the tag list in the sidebar or the search field.

Frequently Asked Questions
