Facebook allows users to transfer posts and notes to Google Docs, using its data portability options. The feature comes in handy when users want to permanently delete their Facebook account or have a backup of data shared on their profile. 

The platform, back in 2019, revealed that it was working to support data portability and rolled out the option to transfer photos and videos to platforms like Backblaze, Dropbox, Google Photos, and Koofr. It then introduced the functionality to export posts and notes to platforms, including WordPress, Blogger, and Google Docs.
