# Introducing Copy Metadata [wenlzhang/obsidian-copy-metadata: An Obsidian plugin to copy metadata to clipboard and insert it into file name.](https://github.com/wenlzhang/obsidian-copy-metadata)   An [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) plugin to copy metadata to clipboard and insert it into active file name. ## The Story Behind Copy Metadata This plugin was developed to address a common user scenario: many users frequently take notes on Obsidian Mobile but find it inconvenient to add a Zettelkasten timestamp to the file name. While creating quick notes on mobile is effortless, transitioning to Obsidian Desktop often requires renaming those notes. This plugin provides a seamless solution by automatically appending the note creation time to the active file name, streamlining the workflow between mobile and desktop. ## Learn More About Copy Metadata - [[Key Features of Copy Metadata]] - [[How to Use Copy Metadata]] - [[Acknowledgments for Copy Metadata]] ## Supporting If you find this tool useful, please consider [[Support Us]].
