Current behavior
When I try to add an obsidian:// URL as a link on a work item, I get an error "The link could not be created". I would like to be able to add direct links to documentation living in Obsidian this way. Adding http:// URLs works as expected.
Steps to reproduce
- Go to any work item
- Click "Add link"
- Enter
obsidian://open?vault=docs&file=testin the URL field - Click "Add link"
- Observe error "The link could not be created"
