Overview of DDB Integration in Foundry

You can import characters, spells, items, monsters and adventures.

There are a number of other things you can import as well, however, the D&D System in Foundry recently underwent some huge changes and some bits of DDB Importer are not yet available. (Please see below for more details).

Characters

You can import characters from D&DBeyond. If you are a DM we recommend you add your players to a campaign in your DDB account so you can interact with their sheet fully. If you are a player and wish to import a character you will need to have permissions ot browser and upload to Foundry, and the DM should have run a spell and and item munch/import previously.

Can I import things like classes, feats, species, backgrounds to build characters in Foundry?

Yes. See the See these docs for more details.

Get started with the Quick Start

Monsters, Spells, Items

These are imported into Compendiums, to avoid slowing down your world with unnecessary documents.

Adventures/Books

You can import Adventure/Books Scenes and Journals using the Adventure tools.

Adventures consist of Scenes, these can be grid aligned, walled, and populated with tokens, but it varies from adventure to adventure (see the status page).

It will also import Journals and any Tables it can parse. There is an option to import these to compendiums as well as into the world.

Standalone Adventure Muncher

Previously Adventure Muncher used a standalone app to generate adventure books to import. This now all happens in the browser. You still need to use Adventure Muncher if you run a self hosted proxy.

DDB Maps

You can import content from DDB Maps using the DDB Maps tool.

Classes, Species, Feats, Backgrounds

Use the Character Options tool.
