Normally this should be as simple as any other copy and paste - or at least that’s how it works for me. This pastes the image as ![[Pasted Image]] and saves the image in a folder that you can set in the settings under Files & Links → Attachment Folder Path.
To retain the functionality described, you can simply remove the leading !, which will turn ![[Pasted Image]] into [[Pasted Image]].
It’s much easier to find a recently imported image in a specific folder. Thank you!
However, I still have to go through the process of finding the image in the folder. This can cause problem when folder contains too many images, and I’m looking for a way that can save this process.
I notice that when a image is imported to Obsidian, it gives two options right away:
Done
Insert link into daily note
Is it possible to add the third option “Copy URL”?
What do you mean by that ? If you see the image in your note, you don’t have to find it. Then, with the plugin installed, its URL is a right-click away.
Note that I didn’t use [[ ]] or ![[ ]] but [ ] ( ) notation, where the name of the image goes into [ ] section; the URL of the image goes into the ( ) section.
finally, I can put name into URL into [ ] section, and URL into the ( ) section. Done
The reason why I don’t choose “insert link into Daily record” is because this way will put images and texts all together, makes it very hard to walk through it.
I think the best way is to add another option when image is imported success.
Instead of starting from the photos app, you could try starting from obsidian.
I believe the command is “insert attachment”, or maybe even “insert picture/image”. This will automatically insert the image at the cursor position so you don’t have to go hunt the image down.
Since you’re on mobile, the command should be on the mobile toolbar, I think icons are a paperclip and an image icon respectively
