To create an Obsidian JSON Canvas file, generate a JSON structure with top-level arrays for nodes and edges following the JSON Canvas Spec 1.0. This includes defining layout coordinates, colors, labels, and valid 16-character hex IDs for each element.
Yes, JSON Canvas can build flowcharts and mind maps in Obsidian. You generate text nodes, group related items, and draw labeled connections between them, outputting a JSON-parseable structure ready for visual structured thinking.
To connect nodes reliably in a .canvas diagram, generate edges that reference valid node IDs using the fromNode and toNode fields. Validating edge integrity after edits ensures all connections remain consistent within the JSON structure.
The JSON Canvas Spec 1.0 format is a JSON-parseable structure for visual diagrams. It requires top-level nodes and edges arrays, utilizing allowed fields like unique 16-character hex IDs, layout coordinates, groups, colors, and anchors.
Yes, the JSON Canvas format supports negative coordinates and grouping. You can position node objects anywhere on the canvas, including negative coordinate spaces, and group related items together while maintaining correct edge references.
Obsidian canvas edges break after editing when fromNode and toNode references become invalid. To fix this, validate edge integrity after edits by ensuring all edges reference existing 16-character hex node IDs within your JSON structure.
