This is more of a "wonder if this is possible" than something I actually want to do, but:

Here's the search I have right now:

Code:

(ondevice:true) OR (#onkobo:true)

Since ondevice and #onkobo always have the same value for a given book, it's a little redundant when the device is connected.

I was thinking that since connected_device_name is there (Action Chains uses it for conditionals), there might be a way to use that - use ondevice if it matches "Kobo Aura HD" and then fallback to #onkobo when it matches a null.

is this possible?
