How to use "inbox" feature?

This post was last updated for 558 days ago, and the information may already be changed

As a lifetime user, how do I use the Inbox feature? The instructions in the user guide are very superficial. It only talks about API, where to find it, but it doesn't show how to use it. Thank you.

      I have the same question. Is there any news on using the inbox feature with e.g. WhatsApp or Telegram or email? Or did anyone set it up with other apps? It would be such a great feature to collect content, in particular on mobile (since no native sharing feature is available to date).

      Sending to the SiYuan-Inbox is quiet easy from a small script. I have an example for ruby here...

      You need to change "token xxx"

      require 'net/http' require 'json' uri = URI('https://liuyun.io/apis/siyuan/inbox/addCloudShorthand') req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri) req.body = JSON.dump({ title: Time.now.strftime('%Y-%m-%d'), content: 'Hello from Ruby' }) req['Content-Type'] = 'application/json' req['Authorization'] = 'token xxx' res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, :use_ssl => true) do |http| http.request(req) end case res when Net::HTTPSuccess, Net::HTTPRedirection puts 'DONE' else puts 'FAILED' puts res.value end

      In China, an example has been developed to connect to WeChat, which allows you to send messages to SiYuan in the form of conversations.

      I think Telegram and WhatsApp should be able to do something similar, but there is no doing yet.
