How to create a new note with given text from outside the app

I start most of my writing in Drafts.

How can I create a new note with given text from outside the app? Applescript? inkdrop:// URL scheme? (The latter would be better because it could be used on iOS as well.)

Hi halloleo,

I’m afraid that it is not supported. inkdrop:// URL scheme is currently for linking between apps.
You could copy & paste it, or you can create a plugin for doing that.
Since it’s a personal preference and I basically do not need it, it will not be planned to be supported at the moment.
I’d like to focus on improving the core features as I wrote the roadmap here.

URL schemes and x-callback-URLs are the definite standard for inter app communication on iOS, but fair enough if it’s not on your road map.

Thanks for getting back to me, anyway.
