Capacities API: Breaking Change

We are reworking search in Capacities. This means the API will need to be adjusted as well. There are two changes:

  • POST /search: This endpoint will be deprecated on January 12, 2026. Please use the new POST /lookup endpoint instead.
  • POST /lookup: This endpoint is new and functions as a title-based search endpoint. The new endpoint has less functionality but is faster and more accurate.

You can find the updated API documentation here.

We collected feedback from the community about API use-cases. An extension of the existing API is planned.

✨ Improvements

  • Make it possible to rename and delete all pinned sections: You can now rename and delete all pinned sections in the left sidebar.

  • Display collections and queries under object types that are pinned to custom sections in the left sidebar.

v1.57.23 – December 16, 2025

Raycast Integration 2.0

An updated version of the Raycast integration went live today. It includes many improvements including:

  • Offline support: The Raycast extension now communicates with the Capacities desktop app via a communication token. This means you can use the extension even if you’re offline. Search is still via the server but it’s planned to also be available offline in the future.
  • Create Task: You can now create tasks in Capacities from Raycast.
  • Search Details: The search results now show the details of the content in a more readable format.
  • Better Open Behavior: “Open in App” as default action for opening content in Capacities, “Open in Browser” as fallback action.

✨ Improvements

  • Multiple Pinned Sections 🎉
    • Create multiple custom pinned sections in the left sidebar
    • Customize each with a name and icon
    • Rearrange sections freely via drag-and-drop
    • One-click option to sort items within a section alphabetically
    • Add any object or object type to a custom pinned section using the “Pin to Space” menu option
  • Improved Image Viewer (now cross-platform)
    • Smooth zoom between 100% and 500% using mouse scroll, trackpad, or pinch gestures
    • Drag zoomed images (>100%) with mouse, trackpad, or finger
  • Embed Resizing Improvements
    • Resizing an embed to full width now correctly syncs across devices
    • Fixed detached resize handlers on image embeds
  • Adjusted embed caption color for better visual distinction from regular text blocks

v1.57.14 – December 10, 2025

✨ Improvements

  • Better natural language processing for task titles. It now works better with mentions of “Wednesday”, etc. It also works for dates in the past.

  • Option to “Move to today” in today’s calendar view to move overdue tasks to today.

🐛 Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where many objects were duplicated unexpectedly, causing problems with backlinks and data consistency. This resolves situations where duplicate copies of people, areas, companies, or projects appeared without proper links. Ticket
  • Resolved a critical bug that caused nearly all items in the database to be duplicated after the last release, making the app difficult to use. This fix addresses multiple copies of the same item and their broken connections. Ticket
  • Fixed a major problem in version 1.57.13 that caused most objects to appear in double and lose backlinks when duplicates were deleted. This restores proper object references and database stability. Ticket
  • Addressed an issue where objects duplicated randomly across several different types, breaking note taking and queries relying on single object relationships. This should restore expected behaviour and data integrity. Ticket
  • Fixed issue with temporary property creation in change type modal.
