About

CraftShare

Read full description

Share a URL to one of your Craft Docs Collections, and Gemini will intelligently understand the fields in your Collection, read the webpage, and generate a new item in that Collection, with all relevant fields filled-in automatically! I build this tool for myself, and figured others might want it too: I'm always wanting to quickly add an album, or a movie, or an article to my "up next," but I'm real picky about getting key information in there, getting all the context, but I'm too lazy to fill in all those fields myself. So, I built this app! You have to go get your Craft API key and Space ID, and set up a Gemini key, but once you do, it is plug and play. Simply share any URL from Safari or elsewhere, choose the CraftShare option in your share sheet, and CraftShare handles the rest, intelligently clipping artist names, publication dates, or whatever other key information you specify. In the app itself, you can give Gemini instructions -- maybe you want to always fill in certain columns yourself, or you want to make sure the right information gets grabbed. Hope you find this as useful as I do!
