For many features of Obsidian Web, it can be helpful to associate a particular URL or set of URLs with a note. To establish this connection, you can use the url or url-aliases frontmatter fields as described below. Once you have done so and you navigate to a URL you have created notes for, Obsidian Web will suggest the linked note to you and, if enabled, show you a message:

---
url: https://www.amazon.com/Zenkeeper-Obsidian-Tumbling-Meditation-Sculpture/dp/B08L3LWVKV/*
---

The url field also supports using the * symbol as a wildcard so you can match multiple URLs. You can see this in use in the above example so that we match that URL regardless of what parameters are added to the URL.

In some cases, you might need a particular note to be responsible for multiple URLs, if so, you can put any number of URLs in the url-aliases field:

---
url-aliases:
  - https://livethedraper.com/*
  - https://www.apartments.com/5035-n-broadway-st-chicago-il/1gh5s77
  - https://www.google.com/maps/place/The+Draper+-+Uptown/*
---

Like url above, this supports using the * character for matching multiple URLs.
