I have setup some Shortcuts that work under iOS and macOS.
Essentially does the following:
- Under the Share menu (accessed from Safari toolbar or when you select text, say a part number in a manual), you can select Part Number
- This then automatically removes spaces from the string - usually seen in manuals etc
- Then depending on the length of the string with spaces removed - searches for a part number (Ersatzteile) or a set number (Bauanleitungen) on Playmobil DE’s Building instructions search page (bauanleitung).
It also has a fallback where if no input, e.g. you haven’t selected text - just run it from Safaris toolbar for example, it will prompt for using your clipboard or a manual entry.
I made this as outside of work I don’t use a laptop, just my iPhone or iPad, and the process of having to remove spaces etc was getting time consuming.
Let me know if this of interest and I’ll see how I can share it.
I do have a version for Mundobil as that site is helpful for similar item lookup and can look at a Playmodb one also.
