Howdy,
I but wrote a script for Roll20 (requires PRO) to import a DNDBeyond graphic symbol in to the Roll20 5eOGL grapheme sheet, it is still in development, simply as much equally possible at the moment (and where I idea off ;)) is taken over to the character sail.
How It Works
On DNDBeyond go to a characters page, and put `/json` backside the url, eg:
Copy the unabridged contents of that folio and go to the game in Roll20 where you utilize the script.
In the chat type `!beyond import` and paste the copied contents later on that, eg:
!across import {"character":{"id":1307201,"name":"Qroohk","player":"Atheos","age":zilch,"hair":nil,"eyes":null,"pare":zip,"height":null,"weight":null,"size":"Medium","alignment":"Lawful Good" ..........Printing enter, and your character will be imported!
Commands
Allow me know what yous think about this, and if you lot find whatsoever errors or accept any suggestions.

That's pretty cool! I beloved stuff similar this. :)
Please be aware that the unabridged character sheet is being overhauled and the current character canvas will get away when the work is finished (should be presently). I expect that will come with some pretty major changes to the structure of the json data file.

Almost of the major piece of work is in the processing of the data more reading from a json. I had to completely rewrite the model population for something at work that was originally tab delimited to XML, but luckily the majority of the structure around information technology was the same, just a matter of irresolute property names.
Side-note: After doing all that work we found out it was actually still tab delimited so I had to carefully undo all that work (sadly reverting the commit wouldn't piece of work since a lot of work around the changed code was done as well).

Hey then I just started using your importer. Its great for the OGL, however I prefer to use the Shaped character sheet and information technology doesnt seem to be working. It creates the sheet, but it doesnt modify anything else in it. No class, spells, or anything was added. Maybe Im using it wrong and would like some help if and so.

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

Ok, this is going to exist a dumb question but when players make updates on roll20 information technology volition NOT effect them of DNDBeyond, correct? So equally far equally keeping track of my players characters I volition have to still practice all that on roll20?

This has to be one of the best tools out there. The only issue that I have seen is that information technology does not import the Initiative department of the D&D Beyond sheet into the Roll 20 sheets.
Unfortunately with Roll20, there is not a way that I have institute to direct edit this information to right information technology, and all characters imported show an initiative of 0, when other values exist on the D&D Beyond sheet.
Any assist would be profoundly appreciated.
Cheers, and cheers for such a time saving tool!

If you lot have the books in Beyond, it directly transfers that information over.
Example, I purchased the Ebberon volume, created an Artificer character.
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 issue, but other than that, flawless.
Hope this helps.
PS. Make sure you do !beyond --import to correctly import the json text.

has anyone else had issues with weapons non being imported correctly? Skills seem to be working in roll20, but weapons don't work when you click on them in the graphic symbol sail.

Earlier using this tool, y'all probably desire to read this thread over in the Roll20 forums:
https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6248700/script-beta-beyondimporter-import-dndbeyond-character-sheets/?pagenum=6
Essentially, at that place were some changes made to the way the Roll20 5e character sheet works that mean that this script tin can't guarantee to set everything up correctly over there. Weapon macros non being triggered off the imported character sheet is one common symptom. Information technology sounds similar the character canvass developer isn't willing to piece of work with the developer(s) of this script to support this functionality, so the project is substantially abandoned at this point. It may piece of work OK in certain cases, or it may not.
The master alternatives seem to be:
