Automatic collections with queries?

Have you ever made a collection in Capacities and thought “I wish I could do this automatically?”. This is something queries can help with, because queries collect content based on rules we set up.
So today, we’ll show you three ways you could use queries as automatic collections. 🚀 Queries are a Pro feature.
We’ll look at…
👉 an automatic library of the books you’ve read this year + a reading list 00:49 - 06:28
👉 a list of all the meetings associated with a certain project 06:28 - 11:14
👉 an automatically updating video watch list. 11:15

So glad to hear this, thanks!

The books are all currently entered manually, right? I’ve been thinking about moving to Capacities, but I loathe the idea of replicating years of what I have in Kindle & Readwise by hand.

[@CapacitiesHQ]

All manually yes!

[@ap0ria]

@@CapacitiesHQ that’s too bad. Thanks!

Is it possible to create a query looking for, for instance questions for a person without having to change the name of the person every time in the query

[@CapacitiesHQ]

Not currently!
