Obsidian Bases Skill
Workflow
- Create the file: Create a
.basefile in the vault with valid YAML content - Define scope: Add
filtersto select which notes appear (by tag, folder, property, or date) - Add formulas (optional): Define computed properties in the
formulassection - Configure views: Add one or more views (
table,cards,list, ormap) withorderspecifying which properties to display - Validate: Verify the file is valid YAML with no syntax errors. Check that all referenced properties and formulas exist. Common issues: unquoted strings containing special YAML characters, mismatched quotes in formula expressions, referencing
formula.Xwithout definingXinformulas - Test in Obsidian: Open the
.basefile in Obsidian to confirm the view renders correctly. If it shows a YAML error, check quoting rules below
Schema
Base files use the .base extension and contain valid YAML.
# Global filters apply to ALL views in the base
filters:
# Can be a single filter string
