Using the Hookmark shortcuts.app functionality

Discussion & Help
1

I need help with Shortcuts and using Hookmark. I would like to integrate this functionality into a current workflow that I have to makes reminders out of text in a Note in Notes.app

So what I need to do is to get the hook:// link to the Note that I am currently in.

End result is to add the hook link into the reminder in the URL field, so I can go from the Reminder back to the Note. (But that’s irrelevant).

But for some reason I can’t figure out how to create a Hookmark link using Shortcuts using the official Hookmark shortcut actions.

Welcome back to Hookmark forum, @joelesler .

You can use “Add Hookmark” action to create a bookmark object.

You can use “Hook Bookmarks together” acction to hook two bookmarks together

I don’t think that’s what I am trying to do. I want to get a hook on the current Note.

In that case, You can either use Apple Notes’s shortcut actions to get current note’s creation timestamp so you can get its url: hook://notes/dt/timestamp.

Or you can try Apple Notes’s Get Address Script from Hookmark Settings window->Scripts->Notes->Get Address, and run the script in a Run AppleScript action in Shortcuts.

I think it would be handy then to have a shortcut that ran the get address script and returned the address. There is no way to get a note’s timestamp via shortcuts. I could run the AppleScript I suppose.
