Export a Wiki to a OneNote notebook instructions don't work

Export a Wiki to a OneNote notebook says,

Export a Wiki to OneNote - In Teams, go to the standard channel whose Wiki you want to export. - On the wiki banner, select Get details. Select Export to Notes, and then select Finish.

What is the wiki banner?

Where do you find Get details?

Where do you Select Export to Notes?

I have access to Teams that have had Wiki pages for ages and I have added new Wiki pages to my test team, created today. "Get details", and, "Select Export to Notes", don't appear anywhere

Any ideas?

Hello Guy,

The explanation why some are not seeing any of that which Microsoft is suggesting is simply because it is not available for everyone just YET. They recently started rolling this out, and it won't be available for everyone everywhere at the same time!

To be fair, the instructions page does mention "Coming soon".

This is what the "banner" will look like:

So, it will be a banner below the menu bar with a tannish background color and a button on the righthand side reading "Get details".

And here's a screenshot of what the export tool will look like, with the "Export to Notes" button:

As depicted in these two steps in Microsoft's instructions:

  1. In Teams, go to the standard channel whose Wiki you want to export.
  2. On thewikibanner, selectGet details*. SelectExport to Notes, and then selectFinish.*

Also, the message in the Message Center (of the Microsoft 365 Admin Center) contains this subtle hint at the end:

"We urge users to export their channel wikis to OneNote once it is available."

Hope this helps.

    Hello Guy! My name is Janbaz, and I am an Independent Advisor.

    I'm sorry to hear that exporting a Wiki to a OneNote notebook in Microsoft Teams is giving you difficulties. I hope I can assist you in finding a satisfactory solution.

    You can attempt the following to troubleshoot the problem:

    1. Verify you are using the most recent version of Teams: Ensure that Teams is installed on your device with the most recent update. You can make sure you have access to the most recent features and bug fixes by doing this.
    2. Verify your authorizations: Ensure you have the appropriate authorizations before exporting a Wiki to a OneNote notebook. To carry out this activity, you might need to be an owner or contributor to the Team or the wiki.
    3. Check to see if OneNote is enabled: Verify that OneNote is installed and turned on in Teams by going to the "Apps" page. You can get it from the Teams app store if it isn't already there.
    4. Verify the wiki page formatting: Verify the format of the wiki page you're attempting to export. It's possible that exporting for some wiki page kinds won't work.

    Please let me know if this doesn't work or if you need further assistance.
