@onkarshedge just like @bzz said, it would be better to have that import
function in the back-end.
This is the [PR](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/374) that first
implemented the feature so you should be able to find where are the classes
currently taking care of the import.
We currently have 2 options for import in the front-end: **URL** or **File
Import**
You could probably create a 3rd one for IPFS.
Right now, the [websocket
call](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/blob/master/zeppelin-web/src/components/noteName-import/notenameImport.controller.js#L97)
is sending a Notebook, so you might want to refactor that to have a choice
between sending a Notebook or a URL/Hash/Other.
And send the Hash to the backend so it can do the import.
