Re: Bookends iOS URL endpoints

Thanks for the update. That's good to hear.

Regarding the shortcut I mentioned in the other thread: once I iron out a few bugs that can occur in parsing the results from the CrossRef query, I'll be glad to share it there.

Bookends iOS URL endpoints

Thanks for the recent addition of the feature to copy links to items to open from other apps.

I was wondering if there are also any other endpoints in the URL scheme on iOS available as well for actions such as quick add?

Re: Bookends Siri Shortcuts Forum

An additional helpful Shortcut action would be Quick Add. As a use case, I’ve been working on a Shortcut that accepts any selected text from any app and then queries the CrossRef REST api to try to find a DOI. Right now I can copy the output DOI to the clipboard and then open Bookends for iOS and do...

Re: Attachements in subfolders and sync

Thanks for confirming. I think this should be sufficient for my purposes. As a feature request for some day in the future, I still think it would be great if there were an option to choose a subfolder from the import UI, similar to Mac, but I understand the file system differences might make that so...

Re: Attachements in subfolders and sync

I figured out how to add tags to the attachment from within Bookends for iOS. 1. Open the attachment in the app. 2. Tap the Share button in the app to open a custom "Share" sheet. 3. Tap the Share button in the custom "Share" sheet to open the actual system Share Sheet. 4. Use th...

Re: Attachements in subfolders and sync

Is there an easy way to tag attachments in Bookmarks for iOS from within the app? Adding a tag to the reference doesn't also add one to the attachment. I'm trying to devise a workflow for automating moving the attachments on my Mac after they've been added via Bookmarks for iOS. My first thought was...

Re: Attachements in subfolders and sync

Thanks for the helpful info. I’ll go ahead and try iCloud sync, as it sounds much more like what I want. For organizing attachments later on my Mac, will the iOS/iPad app just pick up the changes via iCloud sync if I just move the attachments to another subfolder under the library’s subfolder? This ...

Re: Attachements in subfolders and sync

Thanks for the recommendation. At this point, however, I already have hundreds of attachments sorted into subfolders, and this works with Bookends on Mac. I was just surprised to see that the subfolder organization wasn't preserved when syncing, at least over WiFi. Does iCloud sync support/maintain ...

Attachements in subfolders and sync

Hello. I have a library on Mac that has attachments in various subfolders, and Bookends on Mac is able to locate them. However, when I tried to sync the library via WiFi to Bookends for iOS, the subfolder path was not preserved. From playing around, I see that on iOS, 1) I can create a default subfo...
