v2025.1.0 brings lots of bugfixes for several notes actions, and removes the dedicated "Periodic Notes" actions -- the functionality is still there but was moved into the standard notes actions last year, and so these old actions aren't needed anymore. AFO now requires iOS version 16.4 or higher.
This is a minor update which fixes the display of errors shown in the Shortcuts editor.
This update makes error messages more readable. (Most already were, mind.)
This minor release adds a workaround for a bug introduced in iOS 18.0 & macOS 15.0 which makes note-related actions ask for a file path, even though they should get the file path from a previous AFO action's result.
v2024.2 brings some solid enhancements, the major ones being: 1. Note actions, unite! Merging of general notes and Periodic Notes functionality 2. General support for note UIDs 3. Periodic notes support in Note Properties actions 4. More documentation in-app and on the website Check it out, it's rather good. ;)
- Fixes for the somewhat broken "Get Vault Reference" action - Minor visual adjustments
Both the "Link with a vault" and the "Purchase a license" buttons didn't work for some users. It took a while and a ridiculous amount of detective work but they're back in business again. I apologize for the issues. (For some reason, the bug would only show up in App Store releases, but not in TestFlight or local testing, which made it extraordinarily hard to pin down.)
Several buttons weren't working for some iOS users, this should be fixed now, no really.
2024.1.1 is a hotfix update: The "Link with a vault" button wasn't working for some iOS users, this should be fixed now. New in 2024.1: - Support for working with files: Directly save non-text files to your vaults - Clearer vault handling - Get notes by their title - Get the currently focussed note from Obsidian And of course bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.

Bug fixes related to the "Open or focus note" toggles, the creation of notes, and the generating of links to Obsidian notes.
Minor bug fixes related to Note objects returned by some actions.
### Support for Note Properties Obsidian 1.4 brought us Note Properties, a very nice new core feature for organizing note metadata. This update adds actions for reading, writing, removing and clearing out note properties. See the “Notes” section in the Docs tab for links to their documentation pages. Additionally, all “Get note …” and “Create note …” actions now return the note’s Properties as well. ### Better post-workflow handling (iOS only) In the Settings tab, you can now specify what to do when the application detects that one of its actions is the last block in a workflow, and that workflow has finished. - Do nothing (the default) - Go to Home screen - Open Obsidian - Open Shortcuts - Run shortcut
Fixes a bug that prevented Actions for Obsidian from "blacking out" during workflow runs. (Hiding AFO’s interface while actions are running makes the "app dance" less jarring). It also adjusts a few minor issues under the hood.
## New Things in 1.3 - Better vault handling: AFO will now keep track of successful vault connections and allow you to choose from this list when configuring your actions - Support for Periodic Notes: In addition to Daily Notes, you can now also use Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly and Yearly Notes - Support for triggering Obsidian commands: Run Obsidian Commands, i.e. what you see in Obsidian's command palette, right from your Shortcuts workflows ## Changes - Bugfixes & a few minor QOL improvements
## New Things in 1.2 - The macOS app has been redesigned! You'll now find links to all the documentation, as well as your trial or license situation, right in the main window. - New and existing licenses have also received an upgrade: they can be shared with up to 5 additional family members via Apple's Family Sharing service. - (Action) New: "Search Notes with Omnisearch", for when you want solid search results! It requires the community plugin Omnisearch. - (Action) "Create Note" and "Create Daily Note" now support applying templates when creating notes, see the documentation for the actions. - (Action) "Append Note" and "Prepend Note" (and their Daily Note counterparts) can now append/prepend sections below headlines. - (Action) "Append Note" and "Prepend Note" (and their Daily Note counterparts) can now gracefully create the target note on the fly if it doesn't already exist. - (Action) The "Insert Text At Placeholder" actions support YAML-compatible placeholders, i.e. `#placeholder#`. - (Action) Actions that modify notes (create, insert, append, etc.) now have a toggle to *not* open or focus the note. - The companion plugin Actions URI has been updated to 1.2.2, please update it in the vaults you use with Actions for Obsidian. ## No Longer Broken in 1.2 - (Action) The "Insert Text At Placeholder" actions would crash if the replacement parameter was empty. They got a stern talking to and now work as expected. - (Action) Some vault actions (such as Open Vault) would complain about missing parameters. This has been fixed. ## Breaking Changes in 1.2 - (Action) On iOS, "Search Notes" has been removed. The Obsidian API doesn't support search, so we developers have relied on brittle workarounds to collect search results, but it's not a stable solution, especially on mobile. Please use the new "Search Notes with Omnisearch" action instead. - (Action) On iOS, the "Get Vault Path", "Get New File Folder Path", and "Get Attachment Folder Path" actions have been removed as they have been rendered useless by the iOS sandbox security feature. ## Also Important in 1.2 - The purchasing window will now ask if you use Actions for Obsidian in a commercial setting or want to share your license with family members, and pick a suggested base price. - If you like the app, I'd really appreciate an App Store rating or review. Thank you!
