zanyterp reacted to Vero in Input Fields for Snippet Expansion
Hi @iiiax Welcome to the forum!
I'm glad to see you're already diving into the new 3.4 features I'm in fact in the process of writing a tutorial that shows you how to use Snippet Trigger objects to do exactly this.
It'll be live in a few hours on the blog, but in the meantime, you'll get a glimpse of how you can create it with this screenshot:
The top example uses a free text field, while the bottom one uses a pre-set list of arguments in a List Filter object.
I'll update this thread with a link to the tutorial and workflow itself later today - but in case I forget, be sure to check the blog
Cheers,
Vero
PS - Definitely no need to be a developer to create these snippet-based workflows!

@iiiax Here's the link to the tutorial on using dynamic inputs with the snippet triggers:
https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/triggers/snippet/snippet-triggers-with-dynamic-inputs/
As per the screenshot I provided earlier, there are two examples in the tutorial:
Using a free text field Using a list of pre-defined options You can grab the workflow to see it in action - You'll just need to set the snippet trigger keywords, as these are stripped on import to ensure they don't clash with any of your existing keywords.
This is a new feature I absolutely love and will be using a lot myself, so I can't wait to see how everyone else makes use of it too!
Cheers,
Vero
