How to use "inbox" feature?

This post was last updated for 790 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 think I had to allow Shortcuts to send to a website. However I get messages to the Inbox from the iPhone. Also note, that it only takes Text-Messages. Sharing other data will not work.

      Did you change the token? It is silently failing for me with the wrong token.

      The Shortcut is very limited. For debugging you could change the Shortcut to show the results. Which gives you an indication of what might be wrong. But this is my first Shortcut ever created, so no idea if something is wrong...

      In my opinion, the inbox API is used to forward some content when SiYuan is not enabled, and it can be seen when opened SiYuan in next time.

      For users who always opened SiYuan, you can just use the local API.😳

      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.

      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
