Feature request: only pull specifically tagged Pocket items

[internetdaniel]

Hi, thanks so much for this! Is it possible to direct the plugin to only pull items from Pocket that have a specific tag (e.g., "#obsidian")?

Here's the API call that obsidian-pocket is built around: https://getpocket.com/developer/docs/v3/retrieve. The way that this functionality you're describing would have to work is that all of the items would be pulled from Pocket, and then only the ones with the specific tag would be filtered on within the Obsidian plugin itself.

Taking a step back - what are you looking to accomplish with this feature? Do you have just a certain subset of Pocket items that you want synced to Obsidian?

Would #16 fit your needs, if it supported searching/filtering for certain tags?

Thanks for your response! I can't quite tell what's being requested in #16, but you're right on about what I'm trying to accomplish. I import all sorts of things into Pocket (casual reading, research, etc.) and only want to sync a small subset of them into Obsidian. Not only with respect to what's already in my Pocket library, but also going forward. So it would be great to designate a specific tag that I could attach to items as I import them into Pocket that would designate them for syncing into Obsidian.

Okay I understand your use case now - thanks for the clarification.

I think this might work with the tag_name parameter of https://getpocket.com/developer/docs/v3/retrieve. It would only work for a single tag at a time.

I'll put this on the backlog for now. Not sure when I can get to it, but it seems like it would be fairly simple to do at the outset.

You should be able to update the Pocket plugin and use this functionality now. LMK how it works!
