How do I insert a hyperlink to devonthink in an obsidian document?

I would like to insert devonthink hyperlinks into obsidian, whether they are file links, page links or paragraph links. I don’t want the linked files to be viewable within the obsidian software, I just want to be able to open the devonthink files in the obsidian document via the hyperlinks.

However, I can’t figure out how obsidian handles this.

  • In Obsidian:
[My DT document](x-devonthink-item://xxx)
  • switch to reading mode in Obsidian
  • click on link
  • opens in DT

Not really a DT question, btw.

Thank you for your help!
I copied your characters and modified the link and it worked.

But when I enter [My DT document](x-devonthink-item://xxx) myself with my keyboard, I can’t get the link to appear, and it’s too much of a pain in the ass to enter so many characters that way.

I don’t understand why it doesn’t work if I enter it myself with the keyboard, so please guide me.

Just copy/paste the link from DT using the context menu. There’s nothing more to it.
