Share to Hey.Café URL

We have a new share to Hey.Café url that can be used by external services and scripts like our Share to Hey.Café Siri Shortcut that add's the action to the share sheet on iOS, iPadOS and macOS.

You can view that shortcut here: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/9e99fb0a7c9d4a0b9552926d0839b360

Conversations

hey.cafe/share/conversation/DATAHERE

Data given must be in a base64 format thats been URL encoded to be share safe without characters getting messed up. You can for conversations actually send without /conversation in the URL and it will always default to this type.

This example makes the shared text “Hello world!

hey.cafe/share/conversation/SGVsbG8gd29ybGQh

Comments

hey.cafe/share/comment/CONVERSATIONID

This URL type can be used for buttons to create comments using the Hey.Café system like we use in our Simple Blogging platform. You can also provide a URL encoded in base64 after the conversation ID to be a return URL. If a return URL is not provided we will use the referral, and if that fails we show a message to the user that they can close the window.

Auto encode

If you don’t have the ability to Base64 encode your data you can also use this URL that will do that for you any text you pass to it

hey.cafe/sharer/?text=your text here
