What is the issue you are experiencing?

When using a recipe action on a recipe that is not publicly shared, the resolution of that action fails (example: bring! api).

When checking the URL that mealie provides for placeholder ${url}, it is using the public link (for example https://demo.mealie.io/g/home/r/recipe-name ), which does only point to the recipe when logged in. Therefore, the API fails to perform the recipe action.

IMO the recipe action should automatically create a short lived share link for this case.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a private recipe
2. Create a recipe action (e.g. https://api.getbring.com/rest/bringrecipes/deeplink?url=${url}&source=web)
3. Perform recipe action on private recipe

I love this idea

[ianp1]

If my idea sounds reasonable, I might have a look at it myself. Do you have a quick pointer on where to start with this?

[michael-genson]

Mostly will be in here:

mealie/frontend/composables/use-group-recipe-actions.ts

Lines 49 to 56 in c0a4ae2

	function parseRecipeActionUrl(url: string, recipe: Recipe): string {
	/* eslint-disable no-template-curly-in-string */
	return url
	.replace("${url}", window.location.href)
	.replace("${id}", recipe.id || "")
	.replace("${slug}", recipe.slug || "")
	/* eslint-enable no-template-curly-in-string */
	};

You'll probably want to add a merge field like ${temporary-url} or ${private-url-expires-1732852870} (where 1732852870 is a UNIX timestamp). Then you'll need to generate a temporary URL via the API: https://github.com/mealie-recipes/mealie/blob/mealie-next/frontend/lib/api/user/recipes/recipe-share.ts

I like the idea of making the private url expiration configurable, but a unix-timestamp seems impractical. To actually use it, you would need to adjust the recipe action url often. IMO a field like ${private-url-expires-in-60} to expire in 60 seconds would be more useful, wouldn´t it?

Yup that makes sense. Just spitballing!
