DTTG Shortcut to save bookmark to specific pre-set Group

Other actions like Create Item or such should also take that amount, depending on whether the data store is busy or not. In my test yesterday it had a long delay at first, as soon as I opened DEVONthink To Go once, it responded immediately. So it seems that Core Data sometimes places a lock on the data store which especially hits the extensions, from Shortcuts to Clip to DEVONthink.

We are aware of this and we’ll surely investigate if we can find ways to make this work smoother.

Thanks @eboehnisch - much appreciated

I use this shortcut a lot, as I use DevonThink as my bookmark manager on iPhone and Mac. I have one problem though: It seems impossible to add more than one tag to a saved bookmark. I’ve set up the Shortcut to ask for a tag three times (see the screenshot attached, “Jedes Mal fragen” is “Ask every time” in German) but when using it, it only asks for one tag and than for one Comment. Any advice how I can make the shortcut add more than one tag? Thanks in advance!

Welcome @trw

Can you share a link to your shortcut?

Hi @BLUEFROG, thanks for the quick reply. It seems like I’m not able to post links? Maybe because my account is new?

You’re welcome :slight_smile:
Try it now.

Thanks – here’s the link: Shortcuts

Thanks! And no, I wouldn’t expect that to work. The action would need to run an internal loop. Whether that’s something that could be done, I can’t say. But it’s not built that way now.

Thank you for the assessment!
If someone has advice on how to add several tags to one bookmark with a shortcut, I’m interested :slight_smile:

Try separating them by commas or semicolons.

Shortcuts is usually produces very inelegant, procedural processes (and don’t get me started on the frustrating interface and complete lack of actual debugging tools :rage:). But you need to loop through things for your specific use case. Here is my suggestion…
