[REQUEST]: jump to a folder?

[msapplewatch]

I was wondering if this would be possible to ask for a advanced-uri command to jump to and focus an obsidian folder (rather then just a fie)?

this could be very useful for vault navigation and other purposes

thx so much for your consideration

How do you open a folder in Obsidian? I don't know what you mean?

[msapplewatch]

thx!

I meant file folders where markdown files are stored (ie folders in the vault).

for example see image:

so instead of a URI command to open and shoe a file.md I want to open .obsidian and show/focus on a specific value folder

does this make sense?

thx!!

I'm still confused, are you talking about a community plugin?

[msapplewatch]

Hi again

sorry no just normal obsidian or system folder. let me try to explain again.

currently advanced-uri can open and file and focus it ie:

obsidian://advanced-uri?vault=PKM&filepath=100-199%20Food/101%20Lib/%SystemClipboard%&viewmode=source&data=%OBS_data%&line=3

what I want is not to open and focus a note (.md file) but open and focus a folder (in the obsidian file browser):

so in this case I launch the advanced-uri and it focuses the obsidian UI on that folder (inbox in the above example)

does that make more sense 😊?

[Vinzent03]

So you don't want to open anything in a tab, but just focus a folder in the file explorer?

[msapplewatch]

yes, to see what's in that folder, thank you again for your time and consideration

Just saw that now you can bookmark folders and when executed they go back and highlight the folder in the file browser! maybe supporting bookmarks in obsidian-advanced-uri could be the solution?

[Vinzent03]

@zeltak Thanks for the tip. I've found now a way to focus on a item in the file explorere, but I'm unsure if that feature is really a new parameter worth. Instead using the bookmarks plugin might be the better solution. So that you can open your bookmark via uri by specifying the title you've set.

[zeltak]

yeah that could be great!

Available in new release via the bookmark parameter. Read the docs here

[zeltak]

thx so much @Vinzent03 !

I just tried it but does not seem to work for me? im sure im doing something wrong on my side

I tried this:

obsidian://advanced-uri?vault=iPKM&bookmark=panel&openmode=tab

where my vault is iPKM and the bookmark is called panel

is this correct syntax?

[Vinzent03]

Works for me, what exactly did you bookmark?

[zeltak]

well I tried with normal markdown, canvas, folder etc

none (to me) seems to work. any tips on how to debug this?

thx a lot!

[zeltak]
