oa for local attachments and oe for every external link mentioned anywhere across your notes.

Keyboard modifiers
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
⏎ | Open the attachment in its default macOS app (Obsidian is not used) |
⌘ + ⏎ | Open in a new tab (configurable: new window or split) |
⌥ + ⏎ | Reveal the file in Finder |
⌃ + ⏎ | Copy the Obsidian URI for the file to the clipboard |
⇧ + ⏎ | Open the file in Obsidian (if Obsidian supports the format) |
⇧ or ⌘ + Y | Quick Look preview |
⇧ + ⏎ opens the attachment inside Obsidian rather than in the default macOS app. Obsidian can natively display a range of file types including common image formats and PDFs. For any format Obsidian does not support, the file falls back to opening in the default macOS app instead.External links — oe
oe keyword scans every Markdown file in your vault with grep and returns every external URL referenced anywhere across your entire vault. Search by URL fragment, domain name, or any keyword that appears in the link text.
Keyboard modifiers
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
⏎ | Open the URL in your default browser |
⌘ + ⏎ | Reveal the link in Obsidian (opens the note that contains the link) |
⌥ + ⏎ | Copy the URL to the clipboard |
