Create and link appointment and note at the same time

Hi,

I like to use a combination of all day events in a separate calendar and notes in a special project in Agenda as a logbook for completed tasks.

I created the following shortcut:

On the Mac it works great! I start the Shortcut from Raycast with some short text and the event and note are created and linked just as expected. It needs the 1 second wait to work reliable, though.

However, the linking fails on iOS. I tried to mitigate using a longer pause, but it does not work. Waiting more then 3 seconds does not feel practical for me.

Did anybody have experiences with linking Notes to existing calendar appointments within Shortcuts for iOS?

Kind regards,
Linus

Same issue for me with latest version of Ios and Agenda

If you give me a minimal test that fails that I can run I can take a look at it.

Hi Drew,
I was a bit short
Below my shortcut which was working fine till end of 2025. it is broken when I change the project to reflect 2026
What it does
It take a link from the shared page, grab the content
Ask for a date and create a calendar event
It creates a Agenda note with the same title

What is not working anymore is the note is not linked to the event

Thanks
regards
Patrick

So you do see the event and the note afterwards, but they aren’t linked?

I’m wondering if it is a timing issue. Can you perhaps add a pause of a few seconds just after the calendar event is made. That will allow Agenda to import it, and link properly.
