Created a Things To-Do with titled hyperlink from a single URL.

This simple Shortcut utilizes the native Get Name action to retrieve an inputted URL's web page title, which it then uses as the title of a new Things To-Do in a location chosen at setup including a markdown-formatted hyperlink to the input URL as demonstrated in the screenshotted example output below.

It will also open said To-Do immediately in Things for iOS/iPadOS/macOS via Things' URL scheme as demonstrated in this video I posted on Mastodon.

Setup Steps

  1. Choose a parent Project or Area for new Reading List To-Dos. (Optional)
  2. Choose Things tags to append to new Reading List To-Dos. (Optional)
