Add compatibility between the WA Foundry Integration and the Foundry Module "Monks Enhanced Journal"

Feature Upgrade · Api · Created by Greg D.

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

The World Anvil Integration for Foundry VTT offers the option to export articles into the VTT as basic notes, but the Foundry module Monks Enhanced Journal has become kind of the gold standard of journal and note management within foundry, adding different note types such as Characters, Places, Organizations, Quests, etc. It is a shame that you have to decide to either use WA and have the great world building on the website with easy sync, or have it properly available ingame with in in-depth functionality of Monks Enhanced Journal.    

How does this feature request address the current situation?

An update for the WA Foundry Integration module that detects if Enhanced Journal is installed and if so creates WA character/place/location/etc. articles as the appropriate type within foundry rather than as a blank note would fix the problem and give the best of both worlds.  

What are other uses for this feature request?

I'm not sure, it would be a pretty straightforward compatibility fix. Perhaps the developer of the module, IronMonk would be willing to help and/or add additional types based on more of the WA article types, he has been known to make additions to his modules when asked.

The Team's Response

A new API with a wealth of new endpoints will be released before the end of the year. That will allow developers to expand their integrations but I do not have the people right now to focus on a specific non World Anvil integration. World Anvil has an integration with FVTT and we will be enriching this one for sure.

    This would save literal hours of prep time to have both a website and VTT source for players depending on preference (and for when I have the VTT down for testing/changes)
