Do note that once manifest v3 breaks tons of extensions lots of people who use session buddy will be looking to move to firefox. To absorb that wave of people and have them use TMS the import fuction needs to work.

I am literally one of those people and already annoyed this isn't working, looks to be sing SB moved to V4 and changed their export functionality

added a PR. waiting for @sienori to accept.
also a bunch of duplicate issues of this that should get cleaned up as a result

Please add a note to Q&A: How to import sessions from other extensions about this bug at least.

When it is fixed, the screenshots on that page need to be updated too.

I have the same problem,

I can't import from .json of Session Buddy

Is there a way to convert a new Session Buddy JSON to be compatible with the format TSM expects? I'm about to dig into it myself now and I'll report back if I can find a way.

Should be doable if you have one of the old formats json exports, or you can message and ask for the old format on the Session Buddys help pages the dev is active there.
