Action

Capture with Bear

Posted by David Blue, Last update almost 2 years ago

Capture, store, and locally index web page content at the selected URL via Bear’s x-callback-url scheme. (If no text is selected, the entire draft contents will be passed.)

By default, the action is configured to assign the single Bear tag “capture.” The option to pin the Bear note is not included.

Bear’s online URL builder should help in customizing the configuration per personal use.

Upon returning to Drafts, a markdown-formatted hyperlink to the Bear note is placed at the cursor.

Ex.:

[About — The Psalms](bear://x-callback-url/open-note?id=4F43835E-A60E-4BF2-81B4-661EFFB9FE92-12814-0000021A0CB60B69)
