Launched: Ready, set, bookmark! All from your Chrome Extension

Fantastic. thanks for consistent dev work.

I noticed in your demo gif you show a card next to the URL and site title, i don’t get that in my table, how can i get the card column too?

Dear @Mark_Juno, welcome to the community :building_construction:

It’s called a “pack” in this case a Wikipedia one.
On the canvas just type: /wi and you will get the option to install the Wikipedia pack.

Enjoy the party :partying_face:

I think you are looking for a column formula: use embed(URL) where URL is the column holding the hyperlink . This gives you site preview (does not work for all sites - sometimes you need embed(URL,0,0,force: true()), which has some other implications, but you’ll find out as you go.

Hi, Tomas
just use HyperlinkCard() formula.

Thanks! Had no idea this existed :slight_smile:

Thank you. I’m swooning :heart_eyes:

Are there any suggested docs for collecting links? If not, I will build one, but I thought I’d ask first, because you all have done a phenomenal job building the world’s best doc gallery.

Hi Liza - A few folks on the team made different example docs for link collecting, but more examples are always great for the community!

Why is there no option to add notes?

That’s all great but such things as tags and summary are missing. If you need them you can use Citable chrome extension to save the bookmarks into a google sheet and use Integromat to copy the data to Coda table

@Michael_Igor_Popov But that’s just…painful :sweat:

As nice as the extension is, it’s not as powerful as this:

Using that extension I can modify the properties/fields directly in the popup rather than create more work for myself later and then switch back and forth between Coda and the site to get data I missed. I can also use my own Notion template within it which is a great time saver.

Honestly, it’s one of the few things keeping me from jumping to Coda. I hope Coda team can build similar functionality into their extension soon.

We’d find it very helpful if there was an open text field to copy/paste a quote from the document you’re looking at.Also would like to be able to customize the fields to populate into our table.

I think the same. Totally agree. Please give priority to this improvement. thanks. :pray:

With the Chrome extension you get a nice “Bookmark title”, see screenshot:

But I don’t want to use the Chrome extension, because I don’t get enough flexibility (not able to use tags etc.).

Is it possible to generate this nice “Bookmark title” inside a Coda doc with a formula or a pack?
