#Obsidian 1.9 changes its front matter format for array values, so "tags: tag1, tag2, tag3" no longer works. If your vault is full of front matter in that format (aliases, note IDs etc.), then here's what you can do about it:

- Option 1 is for my Actions For Obsidian customers (you're good folk)
- Option 2 is for everyone (you're also good folk) 🖖🏼 -

Actions For Obsidian 2024.2.1 is finally available for macOS!
This minor release adds a workaround for a bug introduced in Sequoia which would make existing actions which got their note file path from another AFO action ask for a file path, when before they did not. 🤷🏻♂️

In case you're wondering where the bug fix release of Actions For Obsidian 2024.2.1 for #macOS is – it's currently an occupant of the App Store Review bardo, and I'm kind of pulling my hair out. More here:
https://forum.actions.work/t/state-of-2024-2-1-for-macos/481/1
I've *purchased* a one-year extension to my Apple Developer Connect account a short while ago, i.e., I spent ~100€ there, yet I don't feel like a customer right now. Weird, isn't it.

I finally got around to putting a section re #ObsidianMD and #iCloudDrive / #iCloudSync up on the Actions For Obsidian FAQ pages.
TL;DR: Don't do it, you'll run into issues.

Among other things, the upcoming version of Actions For Obsidian adds support targeting notes by UID. Work is coming along nicely!
Question for the UID lovers among you:
1. How do you usually add UIDs to your notes? By hand, by plugin…?
2. What's your preferred format of UID? Big int, timestamp, UUID…?
3. Any must-know articles on the topic you think I should look at?I'd appreciate a boost, as I’m looking for lots of input 😅

I've overhauled the Knowledge Base for my #Shortcuts-powering #macOS/ #iOS apps. I’ve tried to better document all actions, and also custom objects that are passed between actions, like #ActionsForObsidian’s Note snapshot/reference or #UIActions’ Running App snapshot/reference.
https://docs.actions.work?ref=mastodon
The biggest part of each page (intro, the parameters, and the result descriptions) is generated from the in-app documentation. I’m pretty happy with that setup!

In this article, I showcase three methods for saving bookmarks in Obsidian using Apple Shortcuts and the “Actions for Obsidian” extension, ranging from simple entries to advanced scripts that additionally capture browser selections. These techniques are compatible with both Mac and iOS, ensuring that your bookmarks are always readily accessible in your Obsidian Vault.

After a frankly ridiculous amount of debugging I’m (again) cautiously optimistic to have found the root cause.
Software development is occasionally, undeniably a humbling experience, even after nearly 30 years of doing this work. 😅

About the button issues in #ActionsForObsidian for iOS:
I'm very much at the point where I’m pulling my hair out, yelling at the screen. Because just like with v2024.1.1, this EXACT SAME BUILD works a-okay locally and in TestFlight.
But if I propagate the build to the App Store, the buttons stop working. There is nothing in those buttons that is checking for AppStore/TestFlight. 🤬
App Store review taking 2 days every time isn’t helpful, either.

I've received a few reports from Actions For Obsidian iOS customers that the "Link your vault" buttons are not working.
I'm currently investigating this, but if you're experiencing this problem, I'd appreciate a feedback mail via the app!

Support for saving files is pretty convenient! For example, creating a workflow which snaps a picture, stores it in your vault, and then creates a note referencing/embedding the new photo is trivial.

Actions For Obsidian 2024.1 is out for #macOS & #iOS! This update brings a number of new features and some QoL improvements.
- Support for working with files: Directly save non-text files to your vaults
- Clearer vault handling, less confusion
- Get notes by their title, not just their file path
- Get from Obsidian what’s currently focussedApp Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id1659667937

This update brings URI endpoints for working with files (= non-notes), endpoints for getting the currently focussed note/file, and getting notes by their name instead of file path.

Having fun with Actions For Obsidian v2024.1, coming out later this month – being able to save files is useful!
Example:
1. "Take Photo” action
2. AFO’s new “Save File” action, saving the file in the root folder of the selected vault, returning the new file path
3. "Text” action, using the new file path to embed the photo in a new note body, returning a new note body
4. AFO’s “Create Note” action, using the note body#ActionsForObsidian #ObsidianMD #Obsidian #PKM #ShortcutsApp #macOS #iOS

FYI: The string-based vault parameter (i.e. "type in your vault name") will be removed in Actions for Obsidian 1.5.
For most customers, this won't be of interest, because since version 1.3 introduced the vault menu (which 1.5 builds upon!), the text-based parameter was only available in existing pre-1.3 workflows. Meaning: You couldn't even access it when adding a fresh AFO action to your shortcuts!

In other news, Actions for Obsidian 1.5 will let you work with images and attachments in your vault, and I think that’s pretty cool but then again, I'm the schmock who's building it, so …
#ActionsForObsidian #ObsidianMD #Obsidian #PKM #ShortcutsApp #macOS #iOS
-
I think that’ll do: Get Note’s default behavior doesn't change (i.e. existing workflows won't need adjusting), but you can switch to getting the note by title, and even finetune the selection process in case of duplicates.
