API
Please add a public API and developer resources so files can be automatically imported and organized into folders by class, week, and lecture. Better automation support would make Goodnotes much more powerful for students and developers building academic workflows.

I’ve been craving something like this too, since hooking my notes into other apps feels like pulling teeth right now. An API would make it way easier to sync stuff without weird workarounds or copy paste marathons. Even basic endpoints for pulling text, pages, or metadata would already open a lot of doors for small tools or automations. I’d jump on this the moment it lands.
