Copy paste all field values of a node

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

In some cases I need to apply the same field values to a series of nodes. Currently, I need to copy each field value and paste it to the same field of other nodes.

Why is this a problem for you?

Repetitive and time consuming work. Unclear if AI can help, and be as efficient as I wish.

Suggest a solution

Having an option / command to copy field values of a node, and paste these same values to any selected nodes (without removing existing values in fields not part of the copy).

Ask AI to configure advanced searches, commands, etc... for me, based on written / voice prompts

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

There is so much you can do in Tana, it can be daunting. For example, creating commands can be tedious as you don't know which field / parameter is available or should be used. You may know what you want to get, just not how to do it.

Why is this a problem for you?

Even as a user who is ready to invest some time in learning advanced practice, every time I try to build something a bit advanced, it takes a lot of research, trial and errors, and sometimes I just get blocked, which is frustrating. I know I can do more with Tana, but making Tana work for me still feels like coding for someone who does not know how to code.

Suggest a solution

The same way that AI can generate code, I would like AI to be able to use Tana to create advanced searches, commands, etc.
I may use a written prompt and explain what I am trying to achieve, or use voice. This would probably require a specific dialog window as with Claude or ChatGPT to manage the validation and iterations as prompts may not be 100% clear from the perspective of the AI.

Copy & paste nodes as a simple list (titles only) in Excel, Google Sheet, Word, etc

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

If I want to copy and paste a list of nodes in Google Sheet for example, I have to select, copy and paste each node title one after the other. Otherwise, bulk copy and paste will paste all data for each node, making it totally unusable.

Why is this a problem for you?

Copying and pasting node titles one by one is a huge waste of time.
As mentioned in other ideas, we need solutions to share the content we create in Tana. While advanced export options will be great, I believe supporting basics like copy and pasting to another apps would unlock lots of workflows already.

Suggest a solution

Implement a default copy-paste behaviour with CMD/CTRL+C that is compatible with other apps and that only captures node titles. More advanced pasting could go through a more advanced export option.
