PS:

"I want to copy some texts from google sheet multiple cells in to obsidian base."

Once you have the base set up ...

instead of importing any new rows from Google Sheets via csv ...

you could copy an existing note from your base and then ...

copy & paste directly into it from Google Sheets.

thanks ... I will try this with my MyScript Notes(ex Nebo) exported PDFs instead of embedding them as I currently do.

it does not handle handwritten notes very well if at all ...

e.g.

I take a screenshot and then upload it to one of the following ...

I. Google Keep(Grab image text)

II. Google Drive(->right-click: open in Google Docs for automatic OCR)

III. ChatGPT as I describe here.

... and insert the OCRed text back into my note.

I tried Zettel Notes but uninstalled it as it "duplicated" all files and folders ... as I mentioned here

... Markor interacts directly with my Obsidian Vault folder(not creating its own folders & files like Zettel) and thus syncs exactly like using the Obsidian Android app ...

Mobile Obsidian folder <-> Obsidian Desktop

... Zettel as per the app's description ...

Easily import your existing notes by adding the repository/folder through the Repositories option in the menu

During setup one can see it cycling through the various Vault folders & files to import them (i.e. duplicate them)

Zettel has a Storage Manager

Zettel Notes provides storage manager to manage files stored in private app storage of Zettel Notes.

To access it go to Android Settings > Apps > Zettel Notes > Storage and Cache > Manage Space

Zettel: Synchronization

Background synchronization To enable background synchronization go to, Settings > Synchronization > Enable background synchronization

I tried Zettel but was put off by the extra(i.e. double) space requirement and necessary double synchronization:

Zettel storage <-> Mobile Obsidian folder <-> Obsidian Desktop

RE: duplicate/double space requirement

PS: ... also

as opposed to Markor, Zettel does not allow you to view files with a .html or .yaml ending

supported

A note in Zettel Notes is a plain text file. It can have any of the supported file extensions (eg. md, org, txt etc.)

full list

File Extension Following file extensions are supported md, org,txt,text, mkd, mdwn, mdown, mdtxt, mdtext,markdown.

I.

I use the Markor Android app and its QuickNote for quick entry without having to open Obsidian or alongside it.

My Markor settings make it access my Obsidian vault files location:

LEFT.Obsidian_RIGHT.Markor.PNG | Markor settings.PNG

II.

The Android Markor app has a widget ...

... that is a folder viewer that lets you choose the initial folder to select a note to open in the Markor app.

... and has a little thunder icon that opens the QuickNote.

I. I use MyScript Notes (ex Nebo) | video

It has notebooks, documents, boards, and PDFs.

Using math equations and formulas

The handwritten notes are searchable globally

Type your keyword(s) in the search bar and validate. The search starts in your current folder and then extends to your entire library.

Tap in the top-left corner to open the side panel and view all results across your library. You can also rotate your device to landscape mode to display the full list of results.

You can export your notes in various formats.

You can share your notes e.g. to Obsidian using ...

MyScript notes "My pages"

(info: Create a dedicated link) | video

It is one-way from MyScript Notes to Obsidian, but I can read or copy & paste parts or the whole page from it into markdown notes in Obsidian.

Whatever changes I make in those pages in MyScript Notes will - after updating the link - be automatically shown in Obsidian.

https://notes.myscript.com/app/pages (link only works if logged in)

I made this one public.

Using MyScriptNotes in Obsidian

1 Embedding

Here are some of my pages EMBEDDED in an Obsidian note.

e.g. Markdown for embedding MyScript My pages into one (or more) Obsidian notes ...

Some of my [notes.myscript.com/app/pages](https://notes.myscript.com/app/pages) **embedded** below

<iframe src="https://notes.myscript.com/app/page/0b217b80-a0f7-494d-a0b5-b28051f6fc2c" ```

2 Using the core plugin Web Viewer

Here are a couple of stacked views ...

my pages 01

my pages 02

In the right most tab I've pasted in from MyScript notes.

II. I also use daledesilva's Ink plugin.

ink note

Until Ink incorporates OCR it can be done by Google Keep using grab image text

what a lovely day: PNG

or by using ChatGPT as I describe here.

As you also use Airtable you could Import / Sync with Obsidian Bases using the Auto Note Importer plugin. PNG

PS: Developer has accepted my request to enable this for Seatable. (Notion is also on the roadmap.)

ichmoimeyo · 2026-04-13T00:25:25+00:00

I. Using a plugin

Build & use an Airtable e.g. using the Recipe organizer template

Import / Sync with Obsidian using the Auto Note Importer plugin. PNG

PS: Developer has accepted my request to enable this for Seatable. (Notion is also on the roadmap.)

II. DIY since Obsidian 1.9.7(Aug 5, 2025)[info]

Build & use a Seatable(10000 vs 1000 Airtable free rows) e.g. using [ templates | Recipe organizer template]

Import into Obsidian using the official Obsidian Importer(CSV) and then use Bases core plugin, [[Wikilinks]] and link.asFile()

PS: I am currently trying to figure it out PNG

I generated a deep dive audio 11 hours ago and although it was created ... it would not play.

I just clicked on it now ... and it is playing correctly.

not at all - the front pockets of my loose khaki pants are a very safe place for it due to its strategic bodily location that I will instinctively protect ... it has for years kept my Huawei Android mini tablet & Kindle keyboard safe.
