No it isn't. If you have the Annotations plugin installed, you selected to install it. There is a built in annotations fetch function, but, it can only add the annotations to the comment column and always replaces the annotations.

I have a Kobo Forma. I have made about a dozen notes/highlights on a book called Alchemy. On my Forma ereader, I see the notes/highlights by following the instructions at https://help.kobo.com/hc/en-us/artic...r-Kobo-eReader.

I've created an Annotations column in Calibre (well, to be clear, I had the Annotations plugin create that column). I created a new note after creating the Annotations column and then I connect my Kobo Forma to my computer and then the sync automatically happens. Yet there's not one note in the new Annotations column for this book or in the Notes column.
What am I doing wrong?
It doesn't run automatically. You need to select the menu item on the button for the Annotation for fetching the annotations from the device. It will think for a bit and then display the list of books it found with annotations. You can then decide whether to import it or not.
