Craft Shortcuts Action Reference

Reference for Craft actions in Apple’s Shortcuts app on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Actions are grouped by the categories you see in Shortcuts. Expand an action for its parameters and what it returns. For the Document and Folder actions, select Space before opening the document or folder picker. The picker is empty until a Space is selected. Some actions can infer the Space from a document passed by an earlier action; Daily Note destinations still need an explicit Space. The document or folder must belong to that Space. To use an earlier result, insert it with the variable picker. When an action asks for a Document, Folder, or Task, pick one from the list or pass the result of an earlier Craft action. Typing a title or pasting a link doesn’t work. Siri Actions use Apple’s names instead: a Note is a Craft document and a Reminder is a Craft task.

Siri Actions

These actions follow Apple’s own formats for notes, reminders, and in-app search, so Siri and Apple Intelligence can work with them. You can also add them to a shortcut like any other action. They need iOS, iPadOS, or macOS 27 or later. In these actions, a note is a Craft document and a reminder is a Craft task. Text is added as plain text: Markdown isn’t converted. Documents in Templates and its subfolders are excluded from Find Note and Note pickers. Templates and its subfolders are also excluded from Folder pickers in Siri Actions.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description

The Folder picker lists folders across Spaces, labelled with the Space and folder names. Choose a folder in the document’s current Space. A folder in another Space causes the action to fail with “The selected item belongs to a different space”.If a folder move fails, the action reports an error. Any title, star, or attachment changes already applied remain saved.To add text to the document, use Append Text to Note.

Craft Note: the updated document.
