X-Callback-URLs to Capacities ​

X-Callback-URLs must have the following structure:

capacities://x-callback-url/<action>?
  x-source=SourceApp&
  x-success=sourceapp://x-callback-url/response&
  x-error=sourceapp://x-callback-url/error

with required parameters:

• <action>: action you want to perform (see below)
• x-source: name of the app calling the action
• x-success: URL to call if the action was successful (needs to be a deeplink URL to the calling application)
• x-error: URL to call if the action failed (needs to be a deeplink URL to the calling application)

Error handling ​

If an error occurs, Capacities will call the x-error URL with the following parameters:

• x-source: "Capacities"
• error-code: the error code (404, 500, etc.)
• error-message: a human readable error message

Testing ​

Run a X-Callback-Url like this in the Terminal:

open "capacities://x-callback-url/createNewObject?x-source=SourceApp&x-success=sourceapp://x-callback-url/response&x-error=sourceapp://x-callback-url/error&title=My%20new%20object"

You can also simply paste the URL into the address bar of your browser.

Actions ​

getCurrentObject ​

Returns the object that is currently opened in Capacities. If there is no active object, the x-error URL will be called with the error code 501. Otherwise, the x-success URL will be called with the following parameters:

• x-source: "Capacities"
• url: deeplink url to the object
• title: title of the active object (can be empty)

createNewObject ​

Opens the app and creates a new object based on the following parameters (all parameters need to be provided as query parameters):

• spaceId (optional): If no spaceId is provided the current or last active space will be used.
• type (optional): The type need to be the exact spelling of the singular name of your content type. If no type is provided a page will be created.
• title (optional)
• content (optional): Content needs to be provided in markdown format. It will be appended to the objects first blocks property (if available).

A simple example:

capacities://x-callback-url/createNewObject?x-source=SourceApp&x-success=sourceapp://x-callback-url/response&x-error=sourceapp://x-callback-url/error&title=My%20new%20object

If something fails, the x-error URL will be called with the error code 501. Otherwise, the x-success URL will be called with the following parameters:

• x-source: "Capacities"
• url: deeplink url to the object
• title: title of the active object (can be empty)
