Youdao Notes

Mode: 🌐 Public · Domain: share.note.youdao.com

Commands

CommandDescription
opencli youdao note <url>Read a public shared Youdao Note

What works today

  • Fetches publicly shared Youdao Notes by their share URL.
  • Extracts title, full note body text, AI summary, keyword tags, creation time, file size, and canonical URL.
  • Supports both note.youdao.com and note.youdao.cn URLs.

Current limitations

  • Requires browser mode. Youdao Notes renders content via React and loads it asynchronously.
  • Notebook listing is not yet implemented.
  • Attachment export is not implemented; only note metadata exposed by the shared page is returned.

Usage Examples

bash
# Read a shared note
opencli youdao note "https://share.note.youdao.com/ynoteshare/index.html?id=YOUR_NOTE_ID&type=note"

# JSON output
opencli youdao note "https://share.note.youdao.com/ynoteshare/index.html?id=YOUR_NOTE_ID&type=note" -f json

Prerequisites

Notes

  • Share URLs must include the full path including the id parameter.
  • The adapter waits up to 10 seconds for the page to fully render the note content.
  • Youdao Notes uses React for client-side rendering. The adapter reads the rendered React store so parser drift fails explicitly instead of returning a summary-only row.
