Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/1855

Describe the feature you'd like

I'd like it if the update endpoint of the API would allow us to change the "content" field of the bookmarks too.

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing Karakeep users

I have an external script with a webhook which downloads the transcript of a YT video whenever I add one to Karakeep. I currently have it set up using the API to update the "note" field of the bookmark, but I would much prefer it would update the "content" field (or whatever it is that shows when you click "Reader view"). That way, AI summarization would work as well!

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

Not that I can tell, although I'd love to be wrong!

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?

I have searched for existing issues and none cover my fundamental request

I agree with this. I thought I had mentionned it somewhere but can't find it right now.

My use case would be inserting infos (or even my own AI based summary) into a header/banner at the start of the reader's view. As right now we can't highlight the summary and it's kinda tucked away anyway.

The data in content goes through a bunch of post-processing after the crawling which makes me hesitant to make it editable. If the goal is to add more context for summarization, we can probably support it in hidden metadata fields described in #1376.

For me it wouldn't just be for summarization, I'd like to be able to open a youtube link and read the transcript. I have an API/webhook thing set up which currently sends the transcript to the notes field, but it's basically unusable on mobile and not nearly as nice as the general reader area.

Just trying to understand, how does that field going through post-processing after crawl relate to making it editable after the fact?
