Importing from SillyTavern

Export a character from SillyTavern as JSON, convert it for AiRP, and import it.

Import and export guide1 min read

Open Import

Export your character from SillyTavern

Export the character as JSON rather than PNG. A PNG card keeps its text hidden inside the image, where an AI tool can't read it.

  1. In SillyTavern, open the character list and select the character.
  2. In the row of buttons under the character's name, choose Export and Download (the file icon with an arrow).
  3. Choose JSON. Your browser saves the file.
  4. Open the file in a text editor, such as Notepad or TextEdit, and copy all of its text.

Convert it for AiRP

Other sites lay out characters and stories differently from AiRP, so convert your export before you import it. Use your own AI tool with our prompt, or use ours.

Your own AI tool

Copy our prompt into any AI tool and replace [STORY BRIEF] with the text you copied, or attach the file. It returns JSON for you to import.

Get the prompt
Ours: Convert with AI

Paste the text you copied into Convert with AI on the Import page. It uses the same prompt, takes up to 40,000 characters, and may cost credits.

Open Convert with AI

Import it

With your own tool, paste the JSON it returns into the box under Choose a file on the Import page. With ours, it lands there for you. Read the preview, then choose Import or Open in the editor. The story is saved as a private draft, so add a cover, an Intro, tags, and content labels before you publish.

Tips for SillyTavern exports

Best practices
  • A lorebook is part of the export only when it's attached to the character. World Info you keep separately isn't included, so add it to your brief or add those entries as tidbits in the editor.
  • SillyTavern exports one character at a time. For a group, export each character and give them all to the AI tool in one brief.
  • Only bring across characters you made.
