Parameters take a value with =. Quote values with spaces:
obsidian create name="My Note" content="Hello world"
Flags are boolean switches with no value:
obsidian create name="My Note" silent overwrite
For multiline content use \n for newline and \t for tab.
Many commands accept file or path to target a file. Without either, the active file is used.
file=<name> — resolves like a wikilink (name only, no path or extension needed)path=<path> — exact path from vault root, e.g. folder/note.mdCommands target the most recently focused vault by default. Use vault=<name> as the first parameter to target a specific vault:
obsidian vault="My Vault" search query="test"
