Add a link in Logos notes to a file in Obsidian

In Logos notes, I can add a hyperlink to a web address.  It doesn't appear to be possible to make a similar link to an Obsidian file using the obsidian://open?vault=Main&file= etc. format.

More and more programs are allowing for these kinds of deep links, it would be great to see Logos add this feature as well.

    +1 for URI links

    Χριστὸς ἐν ὑμῖν, ἡ ἐλπὶς τῆς δόξης· 

    Obsidian is an essential part of my workflow when it comes to notes management. Interestingly, I can open a Logos note from a URL link inside Obsidian, but not v.v. as you point out. Definitely +1 from me.

    Setting the URL thing aside for a moment, I'm interested in hearing how you use Obsidian in conjunction with Logos. I've been using Obsidian for ~2 years, and I think I've found a niche for it as a supplement to the Logos note tool.

    To be honest, I haven't put a lot of thought into the full implications of the integration yet.  But I am working on a "second brain" in Obsidian, so it makes sense to put Bible notes into Obsidian in order to have maximum visibility in searches. 

    What are your thoughts?

    As much as I would like to continue this discussion, I'm pretty sure we would end up at odds with the Forum Guidelines about keeping things focused on Logos software. Maybe sometime in the future...

    I use Obsidian for all my notes. Slowly moving them out of Logos. As an Obsidian user, I use Logos links in Obsidian frequently. Notes in Obsidian can contain links many different Logos resources such as passages, books, Factbook entries, Bible word studies, etc.

    I would love for Logos to create additional ways of linking outside of Logos. For example, I'd love to create a link in Obsidian that opened a specific Logos layout.

    One fantastic idea would be for Logos to create an Obsidian plugin that linked scripture passages back to Logos automatically instead of having to create links manually. Yes, I know that I'm only dreaming.

    >For example, I'd love to create a link in Obsidian that opened a specific Logos layout.

    Exactly!  I work on sermons a month in advance... so I have multiple layouts going at any time.  It would be great to hit a keystroke and open the layout for the sermon 3 weeks from now.

    I asked for this over two years ago.

    Maybe what would be better is.... if Logos was to create a Obsidian like linking system whereby Logosians could link things like Obisidian does.

    whould you mind sharing how you organize and connect your notes in Obs?

    I'm only starting, so I'm looking for ideas. tnx

    I put the following suggestion to Logos:

    https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-desktop-app/posts/the-logos-notes-system-could-work-with-the-markdown-format-like-the-obsidian-software-creating-a-neural-network-with-your-notes-and-sermons

    Logos could have its grading system redesigned to be more useful. I've started using the Obsidian software for grading notes with links between notes, so I thought it would be wonderful if Logos notes worked like Obsidian or Notion, which also creates links between notes. For those who don't know Obsidian yet, I suggest you look for good videos of it on YouTube. Obsidian uses the markdown format, which allows you to import and export notes to other services. It aims to create a neural network of information, connecting it logically and creating links with existing files.

    The idea is to have a notes system that acts as a "second brain". The notes are linked and interrelated in a fantastic index system, then it presents all the notes in a graphic system reminiscent of a neural network that is very similar to Logos' "Psalm Explorer" tool (which would already help in this process). If Logos had this function of making links between notes and sermons, we could build our entire life of notes, studies and sermons in a way that everything could be classified, interconnected and more easily located whenever we need to remember a note or subject.

    Imagine it all in one place and the power it would bring to Logos. Maybe, who knows, since everything you type in Obsidian is saved as simple .txt files to make it more compatible and exportable, Logos could have the function of letting Obsidian access your notes, or vice versa.

    Linking and deep linking is the future.  Apps that facilitate linking will thrive over those that don't.

    Arthur Werryexactly!!! And even if it is a function that only more advanced users will use, it would add even more value to Logos and keep users even more engaged in the software. I would be willing to do EVERYTHING within Logos to have the incalculable benefit of interlinking notes and content.

    When you do everyting inside Logos you can actually link anything to notes. The links are available from the three vertical dots in any open Panel. In notes you highlight the word, click the link icon and paste the link. 

    Not sure if this is the right forum for the request, so I just posted it again under "Suggestions" ;)

    SUGGESTION: Add feature to create a link to obsidian notes - Logos Forums

    Would love the feature too!

    Please try this again in the latest version of Logos; obsidian: URLs should be supported.

    Perfect! The built-in links work and Advanced URI links work as well.

    Thank you so much!

    I am pleased too… well done Team Logos!

    This works in Capacities as well. Markdown is the operative word. I have been moving in this direction, because as much as I love Obsidian, I have hit some barriers that object and block based knowledge processing overcomes. (think of a crossover of Obsidian, Logseq and Notion)

    Where I mostly use Logos with Obsidian/Capacities, is to form a reference note, from which I harvest main/atomic notes for my digital Zettlekasten slipbox. So deep links are a huge timesaver in keeping the connects to sources in notes.

    Now, if we could get Logos book highlights to sync with ReadWise… Logos would be a Kindle killer on any materials that overlap with Amazon. 😜

    i love this idea. Only i would advocate for a obsidian concept in Logos itself, in stead of just having links to Obsidian. If Logos would adapt a Obisian concept (combining the canvas feature an the notes feature), than I personally wouldn't even use Obsidian anymore. I also added this idea: https://community.logos.com/discussion/245815/obsidion-like-feature-combining-notes-and-canvas#latest

    Hello! I've started using Logos and really enjoyed it, and so I started working on building a plug-in for connecting logos and obsidian.

    I currently have it submitted to the obsidian github so this can become an official plugin, but for the time being you can use the brat plugin to install the logos-ref plugin I've developed while we are waiting for the obsidian devs to make this official! PLEASE PROVIDE SUGGESTIONS FOR THIS PLUGIN! Go to the issues tab of the github page and leave suggestions.

    logos-ref plugin → https://github.com/joey-kilgore/logos-refs

    brat plugin to install unlisted plugins → https://github.com/TfTHacker/obsidian42-brat

    Will this be coming to the iOS/iPadOS app any time soon?
