Decomposing tables into notes, is there an efficient way?

What I’m trying to do

Convert a lot of stuff in table form to graph form. i.e., a row in a table becomes a note, notes link to notes, etc.

Things I have tried

What I currently do:

  • Select bottommost row of table, Cut
  • Create some new blank lines below the table, Paste
  • Select the new table, Extract current selection…
  • Manually type in the note title
  • Now it’s a new note, not done yet, click into the note
  • Cursor up, type “---” to create note properties
  • Manually Cut and Paste note properties from table
  • Select the cell containing the main content, Cut
  • Click somewhere outside the table because Select All doesn’t work like you would expect
  • Select All
  • Paste

And now that note is done. :tada:

Is there an easy way to do this sort of workflow?

Your explanation is quite complex. You should provide a video clip or screenshots to demonstrate what you are trying to do.

There are few ways to automate your workflow:

Both QuickAdd and Shell commands can start by reading the current selection ({{selection}} - Shell commands documentation - Obsidian Publish and Format syntax | QuickAdd).
