Hello,
I just wrote a script for Roll20 (requires PRO) to import a DNDBeyond graphic symbol in to the Roll20 5eOGL character sheet, information technology is still in development, only equally much as possible at the moment (and where I idea off ;)) is taken over to the character sheet.
How It Works
On DNDBeyond go to a characters page, and put `/json` backside the url, eg:
Copy the unabridged contents of that page and go to the game in Roll20 where you use the script.
In the chat type `!beyond import` and paste the copied contents later on that, eg:
Press enter, and your character volition be imported!
Commands
Let me know what yous think about this, and if yous find any errors or take any suggestions.

That's pretty cool! I love stuff like this. :)
Please be aware that the unabridged character sheet is being overhauled and the current graphic symbol sheet will go away when the piece of work is finished (should be before long). I expect that will come with some pretty major changes to the structure of the json information file.

Thanks for your response. I got that at the back of my mind. I think/hope information technology will be fairly easy to catechumen it by then :)

Well-nigh of the major piece of work is in the processing of the data more than than reading from a json. I had to completely rewrite the model population for something at work that was originally tab delimited to XML, just luckily the majority of the structure around it was the same, just a matter of changing property names.
Side-notation: Later doing all that work nosotros found out it was actually still tab delimited and so I had to advisedly undo all that piece of work (sadly reverting the commit wouldn't piece of work since a lot of work around the inverse code was washed too).

Hey so I merely started using your importer. Its great for the OGL, however I prefer to use the Shaped character canvas and it doesnt seem to exist working. It creates the sail, but it doesnt change anything else in it. No class, spells, or anything was added. Possibly Im using it incorrect and would like some assistance if then.

Hey all, new to all of this. When you import a grapheme from Across, practice yous demand to have bought the relevant source books on Roll20? Or is information technology automatically updated from Across itself?

Ok, this is going to exist a impaired question but when players make updates on roll20 it will NOT event them of DNDBeyond, right? So equally far as keeping rails of my players characters I volition have to still practise all that on roll20?

This has to be one of the best tools out there. The only issue that I have seen is that it does not import the Initiative section of the D&D Beyond canvass into the Curlicue 20 sheets.
Unfortunately with Roll20, there is not a way that I have found to directly edit this information to correct it, and all characters imported show an initiative of 0, when other values exist on the D&D Across sail.
Whatsoever aid would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you lot, and thank you for such a fourth dimension saving tool!

If you take the books in Beyond, it straight transfers that information over.
Example, I purchased the Ebberon book, created an Artificer graphic symbol.
The Artificer's data was ported into Roll20 seemlessly (minus the initiative, which seems to be an issue with all my characters atm).
This includes all special abilities.
Waiting on the author to suggest a method to overcome initiative import outcome, but other than that, flawless.
Hope this helps.
PS. Brand sure yous practice !beyond --import to correctly import the json text.

Earlier using this tool, you probably want to read this thread over in the Roll20 forums:
https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6248700/script-beta-beyondimporter-import-dndbeyond-character-sheets/?pagenum=half dozen
Essentially, there were some changes fabricated to the fashion the Roll20 5e graphic symbol sheet works that mean that this script can't guarantee to ready everything upwards correctly over there. Weapon macros not being triggered off the imported graphic symbol canvas is i common symptom. It sounds like the character sheet developer isn't willing to piece of work with the developer(s) of this script to support this functionality, so the project is substantially abased at this indicate. Information technology may work OK in certain cases, or it may not.
The main alternatives seem to be:
