The Local REST API plugin is a game-changer for Obsidian users who want to automate their note-taking process. With this plugin, you can interact with your notes from other tools and applications using a secure HTTPS interface. This means you can read, create, update, or delete notes, as well as list notes stored in your vault, all without having to manually open the Obsidian app. The plugin also allows for more advanced functionality, such as creating and fetching periodic notes, executing commands, and listing available commands. Whether you're looking to integrate Obsidian with a browser extension or automate repetitive tasks, this plugin provides a powerful tool for streamlining your workflow.

The Data Fetcher plugin enables Obsidian users to retrieve and display live data from external sources directly within their notes. It supports various data formats including REST APIs, GraphQL, and RPC-based endpoints, offering flexibility in how data is queried and presented. Users can either write custom queries inline within notes or configure reusable endpoints in the plugin settings. With built-in caching mechanisms, results can be stored and refreshed manually or automatically based on expiration settings, helping reduce redundant calls.
