WillCarter The reason why you probably are talking to yourself in this thread is, that it’s difficult to reproduce the problem you are having in the exact same way as you have it in your setup. The shortcuts works for me, for example.
But: What does happen, when you activate the shortcut in your Shortcuts app directly, and not via a link in the Notes app? If the problem happens there too, the problem has to be searched in the shortcut, and not in the link in the Notes app.
