Actions for Obsidian › Actions › Get Periodic Note

Returns the current Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly or Yearly Note.

The note is returned as Note, which gives you access to the entire contents of the note, as well as just its body, frontmatter, and file path.

This action will throw an error if the requested note doesn't exist, so it's best to use it after the "Check For Existence Of Periodic Note" action.
