Import Tab Session Manager into Nest
Bring your saved work from Tab Session Manager into Nest. Keep your original JSON export, review the import and verify a small Session before switching.
Nest is a free Chrome extension for managing your tabs.
Start with a copy of your saved work
Export your saved tabs from Tab Session Manager as a JSON export. Keep that file somewhere you control. Export before uninstalling or clearing extension data.
Open Backup. Saved Sessions is at the top.
Nest’s interface with example tabs.
Check the result before you move everything
Inspect names and tab counts in the preview, then restore a small sample. Nest can only preserve information present in a supported export. A flat URL list cannot supply original windows, group colors or pins.
Settle into a project workflow
Search and rename imported Sessions, restore a project when you need it, and export as JSON, HTML, Markdown or CSV. Free includes three named Sessions; Pro adds unlimited Sessions and cloud sync.
When to keep using Tab Session Manager
Keep Tab Session Manager if its existing workflow meets your needs or the import preview does not retain what matters to you. Verify your data before removing your original setup. Nest does not import cookies, logins or unsaved website content.
FAQ
Only information present in a supported source export can be carried over. Inspect the preview and test a restore; do not assume unrelated settings or account data migrate.

Imported Sessions are kept outside the free allowance: they never use it up, and new saves follow it as before. Updating an imported Session from your open tabs makes it your own, within the allowance.
