To create database-like views for Obsidian notes, you define a .base file using valid YAML structure with filters, formulas, properties, and views sections. This transforms your notes into queryable datasets within your vault.

An Obsidian Base is a structured YAML file that organizes notes into database-like datasets. It uses global filters to select specific notes and multiple views to display their properties and relationships for faster navigation.

Yes, you can use formulas and filters in Obsidian Bases to compute insights. You define global and per-view filters to select notes, and create formulas with date arithmetic to generate computed summaries across your dataset.

Obsidian Bases supports four view types: table, cards, list, and map. You can build multiple views within a single .base file to display properties and relationships differently depending on your navigation needs.

To configure a valid .base YAML structure, you must include required sections for filters, formulas, properties, and views. Proper quoting and date arithmetic guidelines are enforced to ensure the dataset renders correctly.
