AgentLens Social Importer

Save public social posts, images, videos, and creator content from TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter), Facebook, Reddit, Xiaohongshu, and more directly to your Obsidian vault as Markdown notes, with the option to download and embed original media files (images and videos) - powered by AgentLens API.

AgentLens Social Importer uses AgentLens API as its social media content retrieval service. Paste a public social post link or fetch posts from a supported creator profile link, then save the content alongside your research and ideas in Obsidian.

Start with 20 free credits every month when you register. Ready to make collecting part of your daily routine? Plans start at just $2.90/month for 300 credits - an average of 10 credits a day for saving useful social posts, collecting inspiration, and building your research library. A small addition to your coffee budget, a month of content collecting. See Plans and billing for details.

Features

• Powered by AgentLens API: a unified service for retrieving public social media content across platforms. AgentLens API handles content retrieval; the plugin provides the Obsidian interface and saves notes to your vault.
• Single post fetch: retrieve content from a public social post link and save it as an Obsidian note.
• Profile bulk fetch: retrieve multiple posts from a supported public creator profile and save selected content to your vault.
• Easy-to-find note names: saved notes follow platform_creator_date_title-or-first-caption-line.md, making sources easier to identify in your vault.
• Source properties and tags: preserve the platform, creator name and profile link, original source URL, publication and fetch times, and media details as note properties. Platform and creator tags help you search, filter, and organize your collection while keeping every note traceable to its source.

The v0.1.2 interface is available in English and supports the light theme.

Installation

From GitHub Releases

Use this method while the plugin is awaiting inclusion in the Obsidian Community plugins directory.

1. Download agentlens-social-importer-0.1.2.zip from this repository's Releases page and extract it. GitHub's automatic Source code ZIP is not an installation package.

2. Open the Obsidian vault folder where you want to install the plugin.

3. Open the hidden folder <Vault>/.obsidian/plugins/ and create a folder named agentlens-social-importer inside it.

4. Place main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css directly inside that folder. The final structure must be:

   <Vault>/.obsidian/plugins/agentlens-social-importer/
   ├── main.js
   ├── manifest.json
   └── styles.css
   

   Do not nest an extra ZIP folder inside the plugin folder.

5. Restart Obsidian, or run Reload app without saving from the command palette after saving your work.

6. Open Settings → Community plugins and enable AgentLens Social Importer. If Obsidian displays a community plugin trust prompt, review and confirm it yourself.

7. Click the AgentLens download icon in the left ribbon, or run AgentLens: Open panel from the command palette.

8. Click Log in / Start Free and sign in to your account, or register with your email address or Google account.

From Community plugins

Once the plugin is listed in the official directory, open Settings → Community plugins → Browse, search for AgentLens Social Importer, and install and enable it.

Getting started

1. Open AgentLens Social Importer

Click the AgentLens download icon in Obsidian's left ribbon, or open the command palette and run AgentLens: Open panel.

2. Sign in

Click Log in / Start Free in the plugin. If you are new to AgentLens, register with your email address or choose Google registration. If you already have an account, sign in. Follow the prompts, then check that your account is connected in Obsidian.

3. Fetch a single post

Each successful single-post parse costs 1 credit.

1. Select the Single post fetch tab.
2. Paste a public social post link supported by the plugin.
3. Click Parse and wait for the result.
4. Review the retrieved content before saving it.
5. Choose the destination folder in your vault. The default is /AgentLens/Inbox.
6. Click Save to save the content to the selected folder.

Nothing is written to your vault until you click Save.

Support can vary by platform and content type. A link must be accessible to the retrieval service; a URL that opens in your signed-in browser may still be unavailable to AgentLens. This release does not promise access to private, login-only, deleted, or otherwise restricted content.

See Supported platforms for the platform list.

4. Fetch social posts from a creator profile

Bulk fetch retrieves posts one page at a time. The number of posts returned per page depends on the platform. Each successfully parsed page costs 1 credit.

1. Select the Creator profile bulk fetch tab.
2. Paste a supported public creator profile link and click Parse.
3. Review the returned posts and select the content you want to save.
4. Choose the destination folder in your vault. The default is /AgentLens/Inbox.
5. Click Save to import your selection into the selected folder.

Profile bulk fetching is a manual operation. It does not follow the creator or schedule future imports. Profile support may differ from single-post support.

Saved note structure

Note names

Saved notes use this naming pattern:

{platform}_{creator}_{date}_{title or first line of caption}.md

The platform, creator, and date make the note easy to identify, while the title or first caption line helps you recognize its content.

Default note properties

Saved notes include the following Obsidian properties:

Property	What it contains
Platform	The source platform, such as tiktok.
Creator_name	The creator's name.
Creator_url	A link to the creator's profile.
Source_url	The original post link.
Published_at	The source content's publication timestamp.
Fetched_at	The timestamp when the content was retrieved.
Media_count	The number of media items associated with the content.
Media_policy	The media saving policy, such as download_all.
tags	Platform and creator tags, such as X(twitter) and SpaceX.

Use these properties and tags to find notes by platform or creator, filter your collection, and reopen the original source.

Before saving, choose how to handle media:

• Download available: download available images and videos into your vault and embed the local media files in the Markdown note. Saved notes and successfully downloaded media files remain available offline.
• Link only: save media links in the Markdown note without downloading the media files. The note is stored locally, but accessing the linked media requires an internet connection, and the saved media link must still be valid and unexpired.

A remote media link is not a local media file: it requires an internet connection and may expire or stop working if the source changes. If a media file cannot be downloaded, it has not been archived locally. Check the save result and the files in your vault to confirm what was saved.

Plans and billing

Registered users receive 20 free credits per month to use with AgentLens API-powered content fetching. Paid subscriptions start at $2.90 per month, providing 300 credits per month.

A daily collecting habit, for just $2.90 a month. With an average budget of 10 credits a day over 30 days, you have room to collect useful posts, save creative references, and keep research sources together in Obsidian. Try the free credits first, then upgrade when collecting becomes part of your routine.

200 credits	$2.90	Never expire
600 credits	$6.90	Never expire

Prices checked on October 14, 2026. See the official AgentLens pricing page for current prices and plan details.

Single-post fetching costs 1 credit per successful parse. Profile bulk fetching costs 1 credit per successfully parsed page, with the number of posts per page depending on the platform.

Failed retrievals do not consume credits.

Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of the current subscription term (monthly or annual).

Local files and clipboard access

Desktop media downloads stream to a plugin-created directory under the operating system's temporary directory, outside the vault, with a 5 GiB per file limit. This avoids loading a large media file entirely into memory. Completed downloads are copied into the destination vault; incomplete downloads are not reported as saved. Temporary files are removed after completion or handled failures; an application crash may leave temporary files until the operating system cleans them up. Allow sufficient free space on both the temporary and vault disks.

The plugin enumerates vault paths to show destination folders and file counts, and checks notes in the selected folder to locate earlier imports. Vault contents are not uploaded for these operations. Clipboard reading only occurs when you invoke Fetch from clipboard; Copy diagnostics writes a privacy-safe summary when requested.

Network access and privacy

Content fetching requires an internet connection and is provided by AgentLens API. The plugin sends retrieval requests to this service and saves the returned content to your Obsidian vault.

Service	Purpose
AgentLens / AgentLens API	Account access, plan/access information, and retrieval of the public content you request.
Google	Authentication when you choose to register or sign in with Google.
Stripe	Subscription checkout and payment processing.
Source platforms and media hosts	Access to source content or remote media where required by the retrieval and display workflow.

Fetching sends the requested source URL to AgentLens. Account-related operations require authentication information.

Troubleshooting

Problem	What to try
Sign-in does not complete	Check your connection and follow the account screen's prompts. If using Google, complete the authentication flow and return to Obsidian. Retry sign-in if the account remains disconnected.
A link cannot be fetched	Check that the URL is complete, public, and supported. If the source is unavailable or restricted, try another public link.
Access or credits are unavailable	Check your account and plan information in the plugin before submitting another fetch.
A note cannot be saved	Check that the vault is writable and that the selected destination is valid. Review the error before retrying.
A saved media link no longer works	The source may have changed or the remote URL may have expired. A remote link does not guarantee a permanent local archive.
The interface is difficult to read in dark mode	Use Obsidian's light theme; this release supports the light theme only.
