Macro to copy Apple Notes Deep Link

Questions & Suggestions
20

Thanks for the heads up, @Ralph.

Using the applenotes:note/ syntax I've cobbled together a macro that can be used to create a text-only and rich link for the selected note. See the macro comment for more information.

2026-01-15 Update: Macro below modified to v1.3.

This macro populates the clipboard with multiple favors so that a pasted note link is context sensitive.

As before, hyperlinks are pasted into rich text editors.

With v1.3, markdown links are pasted into plain text editors.

[Note Title](URL scheme)

With prior versions, the URL scheme only was pasted into plain text editors.
