Automatically Repeating Note

Is it possible to setup an automatically repeating note? One example of how I would like to use this: monthly cleaning to-do list. A single note I create once, which automatically appears in my agenda at the beginning of every month.

Reminders are too brief (I want to add multiple checklist items per instance), and Templates don’t seem to have a method to auto-generate.

If this is not possible now, hopefully it is something that could be considered in the future!

Using keyboard maestro I set up a task list that repeats daily with a scheduled execution of a URL scheme. It sounds similar to what you’re trying to do.

Indeed, at this moment using the x-callback-url support, perhaps in combination with the Shortcuts app, is the way to go. See Shortcuts - Agenda Community

Thanks for the tips - I will give this a try. But I hope that this will considered for a more integrated future feature in Agenda!

This is a few years old, but a feature I would love as well. In running my company there are quite a few things that need to be done at certain parts of the year, and it would be awesome if the related notes surfaced automatically at that time.

Example: Create the budget for the next year - with all its steps would be dated for every Oct 1.

I can look at shortcuts, but agree that integrated would be super useful.

Thanks for the feedback! We’ll consider it.

Something that might work now is to use reminders. You could put a repeating reminder in the note, and get notified (via the reminders app) when it needs handling.

for the repeating reminder, does it can be set via Agenda or I need to set a one-time first in Agenda note and then go to Reminders for changing to repeating?

I think you would have to set that in the Reminders app. I’m also not totally sure what happens when you check it off. It could be that new repeats are setup by Reminders as whole new reminders, so maybe it doesn’t work out.
