Hello,

I've saved my bookmarks by using Export bookmarks to HTML". But the "tags" and "keywords" fields are not listed on the created page.

How do i save tags and keywords?

Related question: I'm using a Mac... where are the tags and keywords stored? Is that in /Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/(profile name)/bookmarkbackups/bookmarks-(date)(hash)==.jsonlz4 ? How would i read that and be able to utilize the tags and keywords from there?

Thank you for any clues.

A bookmarks HTML backup includes basic bookmark data like title and href and not meta data like tags. Keywords should be included though as the shortcuturl attribute. Only a JSON backup includes all meta data and restoring a JSON backup fully restores bookmarks with all attributes and meta data used in the places.sqlite database.

An automatically created bookmark backup is compressed and you would have to decompress such a backup to be able to inspect this file. You can create an uncompressed JSON backup manually.

You can look at this tool to decompress a JSON backup.
