Update on Google Drive File Stream & Spotlight Indexing
able replied to able's topic in Discussion & Help
Hey, The solution nkloster shared tends to work temporarily and then stops working after a bit. Having said that, it has been working pretty unfailingly in the last few weeks for me. -
Hi there, I posted a report that Spotlight & Alfred were not indexing the volume used in the new Google Drive File Stream volume, which was since closed. As recommended I got in touch with Google Suite people who had this to say "Unfortunately currently the File stream does't fully support Spotlight. The files for File stream are not stored in a separate File Stream cache which can't be indexed by Spotlight. There are some reports that if you reinstall the File stream it will work for a while but this is not an officially supported feature yet. There is an existing feature idea from the Cloud connect portal. You can vote for it as well and I hope that more options are added in future updates https://www.cloudconnect.goog/ideas/11068. I was checking for that as well but currently there are no reported workarounds besides reinstalling the app which is reported to work in some cases. I could't see any settings you can change to make this work" So that's the status as far as Google are concerned. The only workaround that would technically work would be to downgrade back down to the old Google Drive, though you lose the features of GDFS and it also has no support for Team Drives. Another workaround is to use this Google Drive workflow, but it is slower and only lets you go to files and not folders. I may actually downgrade to the old Google Drive app; I really miss the lightning fast ability to use Google Drive through Alfred. I'm also going to try to see what the status from the Apple Support side.

Hi all, Thanks for the response. I thought this was a really niche issue so I didn't search the forum, but turns out it's common. Sorry for adding a topic to the mess. This is kind of weird, and I don't understand why, but it started working again. Spotlight can find it too. I'm not sure what circumstances led it to work or not, perhaps it converted the files back from references?

Hi there, Alfred has stopped searching through Google Drive! It worked at first but it no longer seems to be looking in there. I've double checked the Search Scope and the correct folder ("/volumes/GoogleDrive") is there. I am using Google Drive File Stream. Thanks in advance for anyone that can help

Wow, GuiB, this workflow is a DREAM. Exactly what I hoped would happen with Alfred, and enough to push me over into buying Cardhop after the trial. Thank you for making it!

Feedback take deanishe, and Ehler was right about my thinking.

I love this!! Thank you for developing it. There seems to be a bug. Occasionally, when I type in a command it says "Type at least two characters to search in Salesforce", no matter how many characters are in there. Then when I hit enter a notification pops up saying "New access token" and it starts working normally again. It's not a huge issue because it works fine after that, but I find it occasionally does this. Any idea why? Thanks again for making this

Hi all, is anyone else excited by the concept of a Cardhop Alfred workflow? One that works, I imagine, like the fantastical workflow. Is such a thing even possible? It seems like it would be incredible.

Oh man, sad day! What's the best next way of doing this? Maybe some sort of workflow that updates to imgur or something? -

Hi there, I believe the dropbox links are down again. This is one of my favourite workflows so I'd love to get it up and running again. Any chance of that? Tim -
Hey, Since forever I could use Alfred to find .gsheet and .goc files and open them. It was glorious. Not sure what changed but I can no longer do that. It finds anything except these docs. What could have changed? I didn't do anything in alfred preferences... Thanks Tim

"Speed deferring Omnifocus tasks" workflow
able replied to Helmut Hauser's topic in Share your Workflows
Hi there, I've just set this workflow up and I wanted to see if I'm doing it right. It's working but there's a maybe 3 second delay between hitting the hotkey and the task defer date updating. Is that how it usually works (I'm new to applescript). I'm not sure if it's my computer or an error in how I set this up or something else. Thanks -
Is there a way to make iTunes mini-player play a random song?
able posted a topic in Discussion & Help
I have a random album feature but I wanna shuffle my whole music library and just use the f9 key to skip through my album. I'd also like to be able to shuffle through playlists (e.g. recently added) Any ideas? Thanks -
Prepending text to 'notes' field in Contacts
able replied to able's topic in Workflow Help & Questions
Thank you for this. Interesting that this is technically possible! Do you know of an app that is designed to work like this? Basically, when I remember something about someone that I want as reference info (not as an action), I wanna be able to effortlessly note that down in an appropriate place. I find by the time I've opened the contacts app, found the person, and the app hasn't crashed, I've forgotten what that fact was.
