# Import Conversations (/docs/features/import_convos)

Conversations Import allows user to import conversations exported from other GPT chat applications. Currently, we support importing conversations from [ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/), [ChatbotUI v1](https://github.com/mckaywrigley/chatbot-ui/tree/b865b0555f53957e96727bc0bbb369c9eaecd83b?tab=readme-ov-file#legacy-code), and LibreChat itself.

The Import functionality is available in the "Settings" -> "Data Controls" section.

## How to import conversations from Chat GPT

1. Follow the [ChatGPT export instructions](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/7260999-how-do-i-export-my-chatgpt-history-and-data) to export your conversations.
2. You should get a link to download archive in you email.
3. Download the archive. It should be a zip file with random name like: _d119d98bb3711aff7a2c73bcc7ea53d96c984650d8f7e033faef78386a9907-2024-01-01-10-30-00.zip_
4. Extract the content of the zip file.
5. Navigate to LibreChat Settings -> Data Controls
