Specify the Windows local folder used to store the exported HTML files.
Click “Start” button to start export.

Export to Local Folder

OneNote Batch Cloud will:

Create the structure of the notebook in the specified folder. Notebooks, section groups, and sections are created as corresponding local folders.
Pages of OneNote are created as .html files.
The images and attachments that come with the OneNote page are saved under the corresponding .files subfolder.

View HTML Files with Edge Browser

We can view the exported HTML files by Edge.

Defects for exported HTML

Some objects on the OneNote page are not yet available for export due to limitations on Microsoft servers.

OneNote Batch Cloud (UWP) handles certain objects on the OneNote page:
Export support: pictures, attachments, 18 tags, equations, audios, videos
Not supported: handwriting and drawing, Tags (only 18 tags), rule lines and grid lines, background color
