Synonyms

[David]

Hey,

 

i made a Workflow to quickly show synonyms from synonyms.net, might be useful to someone you can get it here:

Very handy!

 

I've noticed a small bug. When calling antonyms, the definition of the keyword is shown beneath the antonyms instead of that of the antonyms themselves. It's mildy confusing…

 

[David]

ahh yes confusing indeed.. well unfortunately the returned xml only contains the "definition" of the word that is being submitted, the definition of the results/antonyms are not provided so i can't show them.

 

for example, result of "belligerent" = http://bpaste.net/show/i2oenelTfhNuhI6c4Dmk/

 

I can of course simply remove the definitions for the antonyms.

[deanishe]

I'd say remove the definitions for the antonyms.

[David]

I'd say remove the definitions for the antonyms.

 

Done... :-)

Hey David,

The synonyms workflow is not doing it for me. I type in the keyword and it looks good. Then I press space and start writing a word ("happy" for example). Instead of giving me synonyms I only get the option of searching for "synonyms happy" on google and the other searches I have there...

I'm having the same issue. I've applied for an API key, but I don't think that's the issue.

Hi, the Workflow is working for me so if it doesn't work for you guys i guess it probably means the daily limit of the 'Synonyms account in the workflow' has been reached. I logged in, and it currently says "daily quota 895 out of 1000".

 

Anyway, you can solve this by applying for your own account here: http://www.synonyms.net/api.php

 

After registering you will get an email with an ID and Token, you need to enter them in the workflow here:

This workflow is just what I was looking for! Registered for my own API key, and it works wonderfully. 

 

Thank you so much!
