Explain the problem as you see it
When inserting a URL node via the Input API, there seems to be no way to specify the title. As a result, URLs look like this:
I want to be able to specify a human-readable title, e.g.:
Why is this a problem for you?
My data (in particular, in URL fields) is not convenient to read if I can't specify titles for my URLs. And I miss out on additional semantic context I could provide in the title.
Besides, links are often long, and they don't look nice in e.g. table views.
Suggest a solution
The API schema should include a new "url" field:
{
"nodes": [
{
"url": "https://tana.inc/", /* <–– new field */
"name": "Tana homepage", /* <–– allow free text in the name if a url is provided */
"dataType": "url"
}
]
}To preserve backwards compatibility, the "name" could still accept the URL and preserve the existing behavior if the "url" field is not provided.
