roam_create_block

Add a new block to an existing or daily Roam page for immediate thoughts or discussions. Specify content and page by title or UID. Use Roam-flavored markdown for linking and hashtags.

Instructions

Add a new block to an existing Roam page. If no page specified, adds to today's daily note. Best for capturing immediate thoughts, additions to discussions, or content that doesn't warrant its own page. Can specify page by title or UID. NOTE on Roam-flavored markdown: For direct linking: use [[link]] syntax. For aliased linking, use alias syntax. Do not concatenate words in links/hashtags - correct: #[[multiple words]] #self-esteem (for typically hyphenated words).
