Expanded API endpoints
U
Unknown User
I would love to have expanded API to be able to programmatically interact with my spaces. While Capacities seems to be good in regards to holding my information for myself, I want to programmatically pull it into a web application to transform and display the information in a specific way.
For examples an endpoint like this:
"/space/{space-id}/Daily-Notes/{note-id}" or "/space/{space-id}/People/{person-name}"
Ideally this would work with custom objects as well, like "/space/{space-id}/Custom-Scenario/{record-id}".
These end points can be used for the following scenarios:
- Get a single record from a specific Id or Name & Object Id
- Get all the records of a specific object
- Create a new record of a specific object
- Create multiple records of a specific object
- Update an existing record.

This would be a massive gain and would open the door for developers to build some really creative integrations. Only thing stopping me from only using Capacities as my only tool.

Limited API not beeing able to created objects and bo MCP Server is really holding back right now. Should be added soon!

This is the only thing keeping me on Obsidian. I need to be able to interact with my notes programmatically. I suspect the same of many others.

Being able to upload files to Capacities via its API or support file previews with streaming when uploaded to other file upload services

It's clear that Capacities doesn't have file upload service API, as a work around users can upload it another 3rd party service and send it as a link in Capacities. It works great I mean when I upload image in 3rd party service and save file upload url in Capacities the images are automatically previewable. But when I do the same audio files are not previewable like I can't stream the audio despite the file upload url supports it.
It would be great if you guys provide a dedicated endpoint to upload files directly to Capacities or support more previews such as audio files where we could stream the audio if and when necessary from the Text Editor itself.

I just upvoted this feature request. Imagine how powerful Capacities would get if you could use its more comprehensive API in combination with n8n. A whole lot of minor LLM-powered workflows (such as transcribing a audio note and save it as a new object) could be added easily. also it would open up a massive range of possible integrations

Google Keep to Capacities Importer

Paul Sedillo
I've created a small Google Keep to Capacities Importer and have everything mapped but have encountered one problem. The Capacities API /save-to-daily-note endpoint only supports saving to TODAY's daily note. There is no date parameter to specify a past date.
This means:
- ❌ Cannot automatically import to the original Google Keep creation date
- ❌ All notes will go to today's daily note
- ❌ No workaround exists using the current API
Would it be possible to add a unique ID that would allow this to happen via the APi?
I have over 1,500 notes I would like to import and this would be incredibly helpful. I am happy to share the program via GitHub to other users, or you Capacities could add it to Integrations.

Hi Paul Sedillo, this isn't possible with the current API endpoints so I will merge this ticket into the one that requests more API endpoints.

Hi Beth, I completely understand. It was more of a API feature request for a future update. I am sure there are a lot of users who would love this feature built in to Capacities.

API: Native Date Filtering
H
Hartej Grewal
Despite dates being first-class citizens in Capacities and one of the main strengths of the platform, the API lacks native date filtering capabilities. Currently, we have to search for date strings in titles, which is unreliable and doesn't leverage the structured date information.
I should be able to get my daily notes that I create today, yesterday, last week etc. Also, related weblinks, or any other object created on a date.

Almost a year since this ticket was created and nothing changed... not a single API endpoint was added ??? no mention in the roadmap???
