Store bookmarks in Airtable and search for them through the address bar.

Take back control of your bookmarks! Follow these steps to use an Airtable table as your database for bookmarks. This extension allows you to search through your bookmarks using the address bar. To add new bookmarks just use a simple bookmarklet.

To use Bookmarks with Airtable, create a table in an Airtable base with these three columns: URL, Title, and Tags (optional).

1. The URL column can be any string; the "URL" type is recommended.
2. The Title column can be any string; the "Single line text" type is recommended.
3. The Tags column can be any array; the "Multiple select" type is recommended.

Enter the fields below that pertain to the table. Now type "l" in the address bar to search through the bookmarks.

Hint: Use a hashtag to narrow a search down by a tag. (example: l #mytag foo)

To collect new bookmarks, turn the table above into a form by adding a "Form" view. Then create a bookmarklet using this code and switching out the form URL:


javascript: (() => {
var formUrl = "[FORM URL]";
window.open(
`${formUrl}?prefill_Title=${encodeURIComponent(
document.title
)}&prefill_URL=${encodeURIComponent(location.href)}`
);
})();
