Set up a macOS shortcut to request Customer Jams from anywhere

This guide shows you how to create a shortcut to share a Recording Link from anywhere by simply typing "/jam" in any input field on macOS.

1. Generate a recording link (with the Jam extension or from the dashboard) and name it “General feedback” or whatever you like. Copy the link

2. Go to System Settings -> Keyboard -> Text Replacements.

3. Click the "+" button to add a new replacement.

Enter the text you want to replace “/jam” in the "Replace" field and paste the link in the text in the "With" field.

You can choose the title of the Jam that is created from your link by adding ?jam-title= to the query string that you paste in. When you use your shortcut, you can add the desired title of the resulting Jam.

For example, if you want the title of the Jam to be "Shopping cart bug": https://recorder.jam.dev/QrBnf3s?jam-title=Shopping+cart+bug

4. Click "Add" and then "Done".
