Does anyone know if this is possible.. shortcuts is still NOT very intuitive.

What Im trying to accomplish is:

Hey Siri open "Josh's Lyrics" pages document....


and have pages come up AND the specific document come open.

Possible?

If you move your Josh's Lyrics document to iCloud Drive > Shortcuts, you can create this shortcut that will hopefully do what you want it to:

I don't create many Shortcuts and there may be a savvier to do it, but at least it works.

hmmm... okay.. yea that is complicated... I am editing the file all the time so its not static.. and hence all the changes have to sync back to pages in iCloud but this looks like it might do it... hmm.. thanks.

sweet.. yea i just did it.. I think the functionality must have been added since I tried it at first.. I could always get it to open Pages but not to specific document.. but this time it was actually pretty easy
