Obsidian + Foldr Integration
Obsidian is the local-first markdown note app with a devoted community. Community plugins can upload vault attachments to Foldr and rewrite links, giving you portable public URLs for any Obsidian asset.
How to Connect Obsidian to Foldr
Generate a Foldr API key
Sign in at foldr.space and create an API key at foldr.space/developers.
Authenticate with Obsidian
Generate or locate your Obsidian API credentials per Obsidian's documentation.
Wire the two APIs together

Deploy + schedule
Run the script on-demand, via a cron job, or trigger it from a webhook — the Foldr REST API has no client-library lock-in.

Obsidian + Foldr FAQ
How do I connect Foldr to Obsidian?
You connect Foldr to Obsidian via REST API. Full steps are listed above under "How to Connect". In short: create a Foldr API key, configure the REST API integration pointed at https://foldr.space/api/v1/, and map Obsidian's data into Foldr's request body.
Do I need a paid Foldr plan to use Obsidian with Foldr?
The Foldr free tier supports basic uploads via the API with 7-day expiry. For integration use with Obsidian — higher rate limits, permanent storage, multiple API keys, and webhook subscriptions — Foldr Pro (from $5/mo) is recommended.
What Foldr features can I call from Obsidian?
From Obsidian you can invoke any Foldr action: uploading files (up to 2 GB each), creating short links, generating bio pages, creating hosted forms, and reading download analytics. See the Foldr API docs for the full endpoint list.
Is there an official Foldr app for Obsidian?
Not a first-party app — Foldr integrates with Obsidian through REST API, which is usually a better fit because it doesn't require installing an extra app. If you'd rather have a native integration, let us know at foldr.space/contact.
