Hello OmniFocus Community,
As many of you have requested, we are preparing to deliver on OmniFocus URL support. In case you have no idea what I'm talking about click this link:
omnifocus:
If you have OmniFocus installed, it should have either activated OmniFocus, or launched it if you didn't have it open. Pretty neat! The next step is determining how you want to use OmniFocus URLs, and what we want to support sooner, and what we want to add in later.
Some common use cases will be to have a link to a specific Project or Action in your Focus file that you want to be able to click on to access from another application, or to link inside of Focus. These URLs will most likely look like:
("task" will be either an action or project.)
omnifocus://{task,context,folder}/[id1],[optional-id2]
Note that this URL has support for opening 2 different items, but you will only be able to open one type (2 Actions ok, 1 Action and 1 Context? not supported).
What else do you want?
Here is where you come in. We've considered adding searching support, multiple windows, and perspectives all available from URLs. However, we don't yet have compelling use-cases for these.
If you're interested in using OmniFocus URLs please let us know what the support you would want, and how you plan to use it.
Thanks for your help!
