Query for a specific task?

[lalato]

I have a section of my daily note template that's titled "Working On". It's where I journal about whatever I'm working on that day. Pretty straightforward.

I'm wondering if there is a quick way to reference a specific task as I'm taking notes. Something like this..

**Working On**
- { insert task reference here }
   - Notes about this task

Maintainer's note, from @claremacrae: I've put the above text in a code block, so the Markdown is visible instead of rendered, which likely clarifies the intent a bit. 😄

Hi,

Perhaps the Obsidian Block Linking facility is what you need:

https://help.obsidian.md/links#Link+to+a+block+in+a+note

If not, then sorry but I don't understand the question - please can you give an actual example of what you want - showing a task, and how /where you want to link to it.

Having said that, my personal preference is to putt notes about a task in the same location as the task itself - rather than spreading the notes across several locations...

Thanks for the tip @claremacrae.

I thought about just going back to the original daily note. And that might be what I end up doing, but I still wanted to have a way to at least reference the specific task I was working on the day that I was actually working on it.

The block Linking might just do the trick. Thanks again.

Confirming that block linking is exactly what I needed. So much to learn about this application still.
