Can actions for Obsidian open up a note in hover mode on ios?

Whether it can or not, I’ll pick this app up since it does a few things I’m looking for smoother than my current Alfred method and I’m looking for ios options too.

Related curiosity: Anyone had trouble with the shortcuts having trouble with URI from Obsidian/ plugins (Advanced URI specifically) to be accepted by the Shortcuts app?

I’ve been banging my head against the wall for a few hours trying to figure out how to add a URI from the Advanced URI plugin to the Open Url’s section in the shortcuts app. Some work, like this to open a workspace:
obsidian://advanced-uri?vault=ios&workspace=Main%20Workspace%20Use

This one only works from Safari’s address bar to open a note on ios in popover mode. I can’t even add it to the open URL’s in the Shortcuts app on ios or Mac or xcallbacks. Any idea why?
obsidian://advanced-uri?vault=ios&filepath=Directives%2520if%2520then%2520for%2520Yes%2520Yes%2520GPT%2520ideas.md&openmode=popover

Figure this is a good place to ask as people are deep into automation and Obsidian.

Advanced URI info:

popover which requires the Hover Editor plugin to be installed and enabled

If that plugin provides its own commands to the Obsidian command palette, you could try calling that via the Trigger Command action.

Glad to hear it, thanks! :call_me_hand:t3:

I can’t tell you much about Advanced URI, I’m afraid, but I can tell you that the filepath parameter is encoded twice. If you decode it as the app would, your filepath would come out as “Directives%20if%20then%20for%20Yes%20Yes%20GPT%20ideas.md”. So, try this:

obsidian://advanced-uri?vault=ios&filepath=Directives%20if%20then%20for%20Yes%20Yes%20GPT%20ideas.md&openmode=popover
