If you already track cards elsewhere, you do not need to start from zero. ScryDeck imports from Collection → Import in the app.
ScryDeck backup (JSON or CSV) round-trips files you exported from ScryDeck. Moxfield and Archidekt import individual public decks.
-
Open the import picker
Sign in, go to your collection, and choose Import. You will see supported apps and coming-soon options (TCGPlayer, Dragon Shield, custom CSV).
-
Import a ScryDeck backup
If you exported your library from ScryDeck, choose **ScryDeck backup** on the import picker and upload your `.json` or `.csv` file.
Choose **Add to collection** to merge the backup, **Reconcile with collection** to smart-merge and skip duplicates, or **Replace collection** to wipe your library and restore from the file (requires typing `REPLACE` to confirm).
JSON includes tags, notes, status, and acquisition details. CSV restores printings, quantities, binders, decks, and deck zones but not instance metadata.
-
Import from ManaBox
ManaBox exports a CSV of your full collection, including binders and decks.
- In the Manabox app: Collections → More Actions (⋮) → Export → save the CSV.
- In ScryDeck: Collection → Import → Manabox → upload the CSV.
- Review the preview — ScryDeck shows how binders and decks will be created before you confirm.
-
Import from Moxfield
Paste a public Moxfield deck URL (for example `moxfield.com/decks/…`) and tap Import deck.
ScryDeck loads the list from Moxfield on our servers, matches cards you already own in your collection or binders, and marks the rest as Need placeholders in the new deck.
The deck must be public. Private decks cannot be fetched.
-
Import from Archidekt
Paste a public Archidekt deck URL and tap Import deck. The flow matches Moxfield — owned copies are linked where possible, everything else becomes Need in the deck.
Maybeboard cards are not imported. Make sure sharing is enabled on Archidekt so the list is public.
-
Check tier limits
Free accounts can hold up to 1,000 cards in collection. If an import would exceed your cap, ScryDeck prompts you to upgrade or trim the import.
Deck and binder limits also apply on Free — see Account → Subscriptions for current caps.
