Notesnook Desktop v3.4.0 brings the Inbox API, deep links, improved desktop security, ColorNote & Upnote importers, and various improvements and bug fixes.
Inbox API
After months of grinding work, Inbox API is now live in this release. Think of the Inbox API as a private mailbox for your Notesnook account. You give other apps or services a key to drop notes into it, and those notes show up in your Notesnook account the next time you sync — fully encrypted, readable only by you.
Use cases:
- Forwarding inbound emails to Notesnook as notes via Zapier or IFTTT.
- Capturing web content or RSS feeds automatically.
- Integrating a custom server or internal tool with Notesnook.
- Automating data capture from other apps.
Learn more about how to use the Inbox API
The Inbox API currently doesn't have any usage limits, which might be subject to change in future releases.
Big thanks to @01zulfi for implementing the Inbox API.
Deep links
The Notesnook apps (desktop and mobile) now automatically handle nn:// URLs whenever you open them. Currently supported deep links include notes, notebooks, tags, and colors.
You can copy the deep link for an item from its properties.
Unique publish URL for monograph
Publishing a note will now assign a unique slug instead of always using the note's id. Old monographs are not affected. The monograph slug for a note will be updated if the note is republished.
Improved desktop app security
The desktop app security has been massively improved. It is now fully isolated, sandboxed and protected disallowing any kind of RCE vulnerability.
