<aside> ✋ Thanks for downloading this Shortcut.

I made it because I wanted a button that would always open my “today” entry in a journal database. Each day, a new entry is added (with my Automated New Day Creation shortcut), so I couldn’t link to a static page.

This shortcut simply pulls the URL of the latest entry in a database and opens it in Notion.

Expand each key to learn more...

• API Key : Bearer secret_xyzabc123etc. (where secret_xycabc123etc. is your Internal Integration Token)

• db url : the url of the database you want to add to. NOTE: the url references whichever database view is showing when you copy the link.
