How to add metadata along with the task<\/h1>\n<p>Technically you can add any Marvin task input shortcut (e.g. #, @, +) to the subject line of the email to have them be converted into metadata (due dates, do dates\/scheduling, tags, categories etc.) but the tricky part is to get Siri to add the correct symbols.<\/p>\n<h2>Due or do<\/h2>\n<p>So for example if you want to add a due date for tomorrow to a task you would add &#8220;due tomorrow&#8221; in the written subject line. But when you speak this to Siri she often writes &#8220;do tomorrow&#8221;, which then does not get translated to a &#8220;due date&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The only two symbols that seem to work consistently so far are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>tags\/labels (@)<\/li>\n<li>parent category\/project (#)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Adding a label<\/h2>\n<p>To add a label say &#8220;at sign&#8221; followed by the label name.<\/p>\n<h2>Adding a parent category\/project<\/h2>\n<p>To file the task in the right category or project say: &#8220;hashtag&#8221; and then the parent name.<\/p>\n<p>It works for all category and project names even if they have multiple words (e.g. Blog Post, New website design, etc.)<\/p>\n<h2>Put the hashtag at the end<\/h2>\n<p>The hashtag shortcut has to come at the end or Siri does not know do add the correct spacing.<\/p>\n<p>So if you want to add a task called &#8220;Organize drawer&#8221; that has a label &#8220;fun&#8221; and want to file it in your &#8220;Home Stuff&#8221; category you would literally say:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Organize drawer at-sign fun hashtag home stuff&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you want to tell Siri to add a task to your Amazing Marvin to-do list, this post is for you.
