Save Multiple Links From Any Text Using CarryLinks Clipboard

    Selecting multiple links to save them in CarryLinks

    Saving links shouldn’t be a hard, especially when you’re dealing with multiple URLs from emails, documents, or webpages. Instead of copying and pasting them one by one, the CarryLinks clipboard tool lets you extract and save multiple links in seconds. Whether it’s a single webpage full of references or a block of text packed with embedded URLs, CarryLinks cleans them up, organizes them, and saves them into folders you can manage your way.

    If you've ever copied a link from an email, a chat, or a long document just to paste it into a bookmark manager later, you know the process can feel awkward. And if there are multiple links? Manually saving them one by one wastes valuable time and adds unnecessary friction to your workflow.

    It's also easy to make mistakes—like accidentally copying surrounding text along with the link, or struggling to tell the URL apart from the words next to it. The result is confusion, broken bookmarks, or links that end up misplaced.

    CarryLinks solves this with a clipboard feature that extracts links directly from any text you paste, so you save them cleanly, quickly, and without errors.

    Sometimes a single webpage contains dozens of useful links—resources, references, or even embedded links in text. With CarryLinks, you can:

    • Copy the URL of any webpage.
    • Go to your CarryLinks user page, click Tools in the navigation bar, and select Add Links from Clipboard.

    • Paste the URL and click View.
    • CarryLinks automatically scans the page and extracts all the links inside it, showing you the total number of links found.

    You'll then see a list of all extracted links, where you can deselect any links you don't want to save. Once you're ready, save the remaining links into a new folder. By default, the folder is named with the date it was created, but you can rename it to fit your project, topic, or preference.

    This is especially useful for collecting links from blog posts, newsletters, or research articles where valuable content is spread across multiple references.

    Emails, documents, and websites often contain important links hidden within long blocks of text. Instead of hunting them down one at a time, CarryLinks can pull them all out for you:

    • Copy any block of text from an email, Word document, website, or even HTML code.
    • Paste it into the clipboard window in CarryLinks.

    • Click View.
    • CarryLinks identifies and extracts only the links, ignoring the surrounding text and images. You'll also see the total number of links found, with the option to deselect any links you don't want to save.

    Once you confirm, you can save the selected links into a folder—either keeping the auto-generated date name or renaming it for clarity. This makes it easy to capture references from meeting notes, project briefs, or online discussions without losing track of them.

    Clipboard link extraction in CarryLinks isn't just a convenience—it's one of the fastest ways to save multiple links at once. Here's why:

    • Faster link collection – Save multiple links in one step instead of copying and pasting one at a time.
    • Automatic organization – Links are saved into folders with date-based names you can easily rename.
    • Cross-platform support – Available on both the CarryLinks website and the PWA app.
    • Versatile input – Works with copied text from documents, emails, HTML, or webpages.
    • Reduced stress – No more losing links in drafts, sticky notes, or random files.
