Mastodon Bookmark (API) Shortcut

Social


Bookmark a single Toot's URL via the Mastodon API.

Video Demo

Note: This shortcut requires a Mastodon application with write permissions. You can create one at [yourinstance]/settings/applications. See the documentation for more information.

This shortcut receives a single Toot URL from either the Sharesheet or the system clipboard and requests that it be saved in the Tootsuite's native bookmarks function via the Mastodon API.

(Please note: at least for the moment, it must be a post local to the server/instance on which your bot is registered.) I'd to eventually investigate whether or not the method some full clients use to accomplish federated bookmarking is possible to integrate with Shortcuts, but I simply do not have the time right now. My apologies.

Upon installation, you will immediately be prompted for your/an GitHub Personal Access token.
