Keep It Shortcuts Support
Keep It provides actions to the Shortcuts app in version 1.7 or later on iOS / iPadOS 13 or later, and Keep It 1.11.5 or later on macOS 12 Monterey or later.
To see these actions in the Shortcuts app, select Keep It in the list of apps shown when adding actions to a shortcut. After dragging the action to the shortcut, expand it to see all the options it supports.
Most actions return a Keep It item or list, and either those or their properties can then be used in further actions.
