Recipes and the Recipe Library

Audience: User, Org Admin, Support, Developer Related: Importing And Discovery · Editing And Cache · Sharing · Social Import · Ai Image Generation

The Recipe Library stores organization-scoped recipes captured from normal web pages, social sources, photos or screenshots, manual entry, shared recipes, and supported import formats. Users can search, filter, view, edit, share, rate, archive, restore, refresh, and assign recipes to meal plans or displays.
