Overview

The ModuleX Obsidian integration lets a ModuleX agent operate Obsidian on your behalf — running create, remove and find actions across files, notes and patch notes — directly from a plain-English request, using your organization's own Obsidian credentials. No pre-built workflow is required: the agent picks the right Obsidian action for the task.

Obsidian is a productivity & collaboration platform. ModuleX adds the agent layer: ask for an outcome and it selects and runs the right Obsidian action — or, when you want a repeatable process, the composer assembles a Obsidian workflow for you, streaming the nodes onto the canvas as it builds.

Ask the assistant

Drive Obsidian in plain English

Type what you want. A ModuleX agent picks the right Obsidian action — or chains several — and runs it. No workflow to build.

Two ways

Two ways to use Obsidian in ModuleX

Ask the assistantType what you want done and a ModuleX agent picks the right Obsidian action and runs it — no workflow to build.
Compose a workflowNeed it to happen every time? Describe the process and the composer wires Obsidian into a repeatable workflow you can run on a schedule, from chat, or as an API.
Security

Connecting Obsidian

API keyObsidian uses API-key authentication. You provide your own Obsidian secret key; ModuleX encrypts it and scopes it to your organization, so your whole team can use Obsidian without re-authenticating.

FAQ

Obsidian + ModuleX FAQ

A ModuleX agent can run any of Obsidian's 15 actions — across files, notes, patch notes and searches — from a plain-English request, using your organization's own Obsidian credentials.
No. The agent selects the right Obsidian action from your prompt. A workflow is only needed when you want a repeatable process — and the composer builds that for you from a description.
Via your own Obsidian API key, stored encrypted and scoped to your organization.
15, spanning files, notes, patch notes and searches.
Obsidian runs on your own credentials, so any Obsidian usage is billed by Obsidian directly. ModuleX meters the agent run — and if you connect your own model keys, there's no ModuleX markup on model usage.

Connect Obsidian once with your own credentials and let your agent run all 15 actions on demand.
