How to open .ipynb file in Spyder?


without using iSpyder DOS shell commands, how can an .ipynb (Jupyter Notebook) be opened directly into Spyder on Windows? Even the online Jupyter Notebook site prompts for a relative directory path where the file is stored.

Opening lines of the .ipynb when loaded in Spyder are:

{
 "cells": [
  {
   "cell_type": "code",
   "execution_count": 1,
   "metadata": {
    "ExecuteTime": {

This does not look like python code whatsoever
