application/json
Identifier of a row.
Pattern:
^([0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[1-8][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[89abAB][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}|00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000|ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff)$Atelier conversation carrying this delegated task; null un-delegates.
Maximum string length:
1024Local day key, YYYY-MM-DD.
Pattern:
^(?:(?:\d\d[2468][048]|\d\d[13579][26]|\d\d0[48]|[02468][048]00|[13579][26]00)-02-29|\d{4}-(?:(?:0[13578]|1[02])-(?:0[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01])|(?:0[469]|11)-(?:0[1-9]|[12]\d|30)|(?:02)-(?:0[1-9]|1\d|2[0-8])))$Shortcut for ticking or unticking.
Required range:
15 <= x <= 1440Heading of the project or area that groups the task. null moves it back to the top. It must belong to the same parent as the task.
Pattern:
^([0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[1-8][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[89abAB][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}|00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000|ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff)$Path of a note in the local markdown vault, relative to its root (Projects/Launch.md). When set, the app shows that note instead of the notes field. Do not invent one: it names a file on the user's machine.
Maximum string length:
1024Markdown: bold, italic, headings, lists, quotes, rules, links, inline code, tables and checkboxes. Do not use code blocks (```) or images: the app's editor does not support them and truncates the display from that point on.
Maximum string length:
10000Manual position. Fractional values are valid; lower sorts first.
0 none · 1 low · 2 medium · 3 high · 4 “goal of the day”. Out of range is a 400.
Required range:
