Automatically add a backlink when creating a note from a calendar event
Thanks for providing the ability to link your calendar and an action to create a note from the calendar event. I'm surprised there isn't a backlink automatically added to the note. I'm using outlook and I can see where you've added an offsite/deep link to the actual calender event in Outlook; why not add it into the note as a backlink? This allows you to flip back to the event to get more details on attendees, agenda, etc. for context if needed.

Lucian AdminHey Joe! Please help me clarify this. What link are you suggesting we should add? What should the link point to?

JoeHey Lucian, it should deep link (back link) to the calendar event in Outlook (or whatever calendar is being used). All that's being picked up from the Calendar Event currently is the name of the event. Ideally the user would have a way to click a link in the note that takes them back into that specific event so they could see additional details about the event (agenda, attendees, etc). Or it could pick up all the details (event name, attendees, agenda) in the calendar event and carry them forward into the note when it's created. The latter seems like a waste when a link would allow you to get back to all the detail without having to copy it from one place to another.

MatheusI believe they meant it as a backlink to the actual event. Basically the same link we get when we open the calendar view and click on the link that directs us to the calendar event (GCal or Outlook), but now on the backlinks tab of the note created. I hope I interpreted it right.

Rick MortonI too would appreciate this. Is there a plug-in that might do this automatically? Either populate the new note with additional information from the meeting event from the calendar, or create at least a backlink to the calendar event so we can reference things like attendees, agenda, document links, etc.
