Action
OneNote with Tasks
Send current draft to OneNote with tasks converted to to-do items.
OneNote uses special HTML data-tag attributes to mark up items as to-dos. This is a simple example of how to modify Markdown HTML output to match the data-tag format required.
The action will run the draft through the Markdown engine, then replace any list items (<li>
tags) with paragraph elements with the necessary to-do data tag (<p data-tag=“to-do”>
), removing the surrounding ul
or ol
HTML tags.
This is meant as a simple example and will really only work to convert simple, single-level Markdown lists with [ ]
task markers. Example input:
# Project
- [ ] Task 1
- [x] Task 2
Steps
-
script
// convert HTML output of Markdown to OneNote data-tags // See Microsoft Docs on data-tags for details // https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/onenote-note-tags let html = draft.processTemplate("%%[[draft]]%%"); html = html.replace(/<li>\[ \] /g, "<p data-tag=\"to-do\">"); html = html.replace(/<li>\[x\] /g, "<p data-tag=\"to-do:completed\">"); html = html.replace(/<\/li>/g, "</p>"); html = html.replace(/<\/?[uo]l>/g, "\n"); alert(html); draft.setTemplateTag("html", html);
