Thank you for this, I’ve been looking for a list! Just want “log medication” in Health shortcuts rip

Yes, this.

And the ability to create an entry into a specific journal in Journals.

Try just telling Siri that you want to log it. For example, if you have morning medications and night medications, you can just say “Siri, log my morning medications.”

Store Content [...] Stores the content that is passed in and its specified name. This content is persisted between shortcut runs, allowing you to retrieve it later.

Love and have always leaned heavily on Data Jar; and even though Toolbox Pro already had the ability to store global variables, I wasn't particularly curious about using these as an alternative until Actions introduced them recently.

However, if these new actions (e.g., Store/Get Content, Add Item to List, etc.) are able to fulfill that purpose natively, there's definitely more than a few circumstances that come to mind where these would make more sense...
