Send To TheBrain from the Share Menu

<p>This Workflow Action will add a URL to TheBrain Inbox (as the regular bookmarklet does) and copies the page name to the clipboard so you can paste it as the thought name.</p>

<p>

You must have Workflow installed on iOS.</p>

<p>

Open the attached workflow link and it will add it to your workflows automatically.</p>

<p>

To enable Workflow Action extensions:

Go into Safari, and click the Share button on a website.

In the bottom list of actions, scroll to the right and click More and then activate the Run Workflow activity (and I dragged it to the top of the list).</p>

<p>

Now, for the good stuff.

When you are on a page you want to save to TheBrain iOS, click the Share Button and then Run Workflow. Choose To TheBrain.</p>

<p>

It will open Workflow, then give you a prompt to set the Thought Name and pre-fill with the title of the web page (I added this step because I often want to remove part of the URL title or modify it somehow for the name of the Thought). You can leave as is if you want.

It will then open TheBrain app and add the page to the Inbox as normal.</p>

<p>

Here's the reason I did this. Create a new thought, and in the thought name, Paste. It will paste the title you modified (or kept as is). Then add the attachment and choose the URL from the inbox.</p>

<p>

<b>Note</b>: I kept the normal web page title as the Title that is passed to TheBrain rather than the title modified to use as the thought name.</p>
