Naming notes from main input

You can name your notes when creating a draft. To achieve this:

  1. Set the Naming Rule for your folder Destination to {{title}}.
  2. The first line of your draft will become the file name.
  3. Optionally, enable the Remove Title action inside the Route to remove {{title}} from the note body.

Custom date formats in Templates

Templates support date and time tokens, which let you insert timestamps in any format you like. For example, using:

{{YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm}}
{{content}}
  • Inside {{...}} you can use square brackets [] to add fixed text. For example: {{[W]-w}} produces W-23
  • Use {{ts}} to insert a Unix timestamp. ⚠️ The {{content}} block must always be included in your template. Without it, your captured text will not be applied.

Dynamic paths for notes

When saving drafts, you can define Naming Rules to automatically generate note names and folder paths. Naming Rules support date tokens, which are replaced with the current date and time when the draft is saved.

For example:

{{YYYY/[W]-w/YYYY-MM-DD}}

So, if today is September 23, 2025, the generated file path will look like:

2025/W-39/2025-09-23

Writing to a specific section or file

Routes can place new content before or after an existing file’s body. You can also target a specific section inside the file.

To set this up:

  1. Open your Route’s Destination settings.
  2. Use the Before/After toggle to choose where the draft should be inserted.
  3. (Optional) Specify a section to insert the content precisely where you want.
