Google Doc titles #38

Closed kmaustral closed 9 months ago

This plugin helps greatly make Obsidian a more readable platform.

Currently, Google Docs links are giving the generic title: "Google Docs – create and edit documents online, for free"

It would be great to pull the document title. Most clippers are able to do that.

Much appreciated.

This seems to have been fixed now. It may have been an issue with the connection.

For Google Docs links, it fully depends on whether the document is public or not. Because if it's private, when plugin tries to fetch the title, it sees the "you don't have access" page and that generic title is shown.

This is why I don't think dev can do much about it.

I really wish this plugin had this capability. It would be great to be able use Google OAuth to get a token and use that in the request. I'm not sure how it would work in practice but that basic premise could work on other sites too.

A workaround for some private pages (like Jira) would be installing the Custom Frames plugin, creating a frame to open that website, and logging in.
