The one endpoint personal API tokens authenticate — the write-only capture path used by the iOS share-sheet Shortcut. The saved page becomes a bookmark-backed note: searchable (full-text and semantic), taggable, and connected like everything else in your workspace.

string

required

The page URL. Must start with http:// or https:// — anything else is rejected with 422.

string

Page title. Optional; Dexi falls back to the URL when absent.

string

Selected text to save with the page — appended to the note body.

boolean

default:"false"

Explicitly request append behavior when the URL is already saved.

Saving a new URL creates a bookmark and its note. Saving a URL already in your workspace doesn’t duplicate it — the existing note is reused, and any selection is appended to it (so repeatedly sharing the same article accumulates your highlights on one note).

Example request

curl -X POST https://api.dexi.net/api/v1/bookmarks/save \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer dxi_2f7c1a9e4b8d3f6a0c5e9b2d7f4a8c1e3b6d9f2a" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762",
    "title": "Attention Is All You Need",
    "selection": "The dominant sequence transduction models are based on complex recurrent networks."
  }'

Example response

{
  "bookmark": {
    "id": "7c1f3e58-2ab4-4b6f-9d21-8f4e5c6a7b90",
    "note_id": "2982e9b4-19fe-40fd-9a69-e23d45e53b13",
    "title": "Attention Is All You Need",
    "url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762",
    "icon": "https://api.dexi.net/media/icons/arxiv.org.png",
    "created": "2026-08-05T14:20:00+00:00",
    "updated": "2026-08-05T14:20:00+00:00"
  },
  "note_id": "2982e9b4-19fe-40fd-9a69-e23d45e53b13",
  "is_new_bookmark": true,
  "selection_appended": false
}

icon is null until the favicon fetch completes in the background.

Status	Meaning
`401`	Missing, revoked, or malformed token
`402`	Free-plan note limit reached — machine-readable body below
`422`	Invalid body (e.g. non-http(s) `url`)

402 response
