JotBird for Obsidian

Publish notes from your Obsidian vault to clean, shareable web pages on JotBird. No account required.

Features

• One-click publishing from the ribbon icon, command palette, or file menu
• Automatic image uploads — local images in your vault are uploaded and embedded
• Callouts and Mermaid diagrams render on the published page
• Frontmatter tracking — published URLs and expiration dates are stored in your note's properties
• Works without an account — links last 30 days. Connect a free account for 90-day links, or upgrade to Pro for permanent links.

Installation

1. Open Settings > Community plugins
2. Click Browse and search for "JotBird"
3. Click Install, then Enable

Usage

Open any note and publish it using one of these methods:

• Click the JotBird icon in the left ribbon
• Open the command palette and run "JotBird: Publish current note"
• Right-click a file in the sidebar and select "Publish to JotBird"

Republishing the same note updates the existing page — same URL, fresh content.

Managing documents

Use the command palette to manage your published notes:

• "JotBird: List published documents" — view all published notes with links
• "JotBird: Unpublish current note" — remove a note from the web
• "JotBird: Copy JotBird link" — copy the published URL to clipboard

Authentication (optional)

Connect a JotBird account for longer-lasting links:

1. Open Settings > JotBird
2. Click Connect to JotBird
3. Sign in (or create an account) and your API key is sent back to Obsidian automatically

You can also paste an API key manually from your account page.
