Keep highlights in sync

Workflowy checks Readwise every hour for new highlights. To request an update sooner, return to Workflowy's Readwise settings and select Sync now.

Previously imported highlights are not duplicated.

If Workflowy reports that your token is no longer valid, disconnect Readwise, create or copy a valid token, and connect it again.
