A simple workflow with a "Move to Curiota" File Action. For use with Zengobi's Curiota. https://github.com/brunocbr/curiota-alfred-workflow

@giovanni in addition, if you've ever duplicated the workflow, make sure it as a proper "Bundle id" (right click the workflow name on the list -> Edit details). It should be "br.com.brunoc.dtpbrowser" or anything else unique. Alfred 4 goes crazy without a warning if there's no bundle id attributed to the workflow.

Hi @giovanni. It should definitely work with sync'ed databases + Alfred preferences on a shared folder. I do exactly that with Dropbox in both a laptop and an iMac. Did you try forcing the cache update with dtp:refresh? Do you get any errors in debug mode () ?

I've updated the scripts in December – it should be working with DT3. Is it working for you guys?

Hi @Jasondm007. Thanks for your feedback! Searching Global Smart Groups make perfect sense. I just have to figure a way to prevent this kind of choice in the "Move To..." file action. I'll give it some thought soon...

It's better to periodically update the cache without interaction. I've included a Keyboard Maestro macro for that end and changed default cache expiration to 24 hours.

A nice update: results are now cached, making the workflow run much faster! The cache expires in 10 minutes by default (you can change it in the configuration variables).

Thanks for your feedback!

Please note that the particular workflow I shared, differently from the one you mentioned (DEVONthink Search), was intended to look only for DEVONthink Groups (not the files inside them). It was actually designed to complement it (I use it a lot too!). One further and important remark, though: any of these workflows will need a DEVONthink "PRO" license to fully operate because AppleScript is required. This is the case with the dknd trigger in the DEVONthink Search workflow (but not with dnk, which simply uses Alfred's internal file search mechanism with Spotlight indexed files). Finally, make sure you have your databases indexed if you want to use this latter workflow (Database properties -> Create Spotlight index).

Hello, @jonkaz . Try clicking the "toggle debug mode" on the top right of the workflow page (inside Alfred Preferences). It should give some information on the error when you trigger the workflow.

Hello @ghostblog ! I've updated the workflow with a "search_tags" parameter. If set to "true", it will search inside DTP's Tags groups. See if that works as you would expect.

@nestorito thank you for your excellent insights! I've made a big redesign of the workflow. I've learned a lot in the process about Alfred's tricks – and also became acquainted with a few of its bugs ?. Good news: not only we've got a "Move To" file action, with the ability you suggested to browse inside groups (by holding SHIFT), but also a handy capability of creating new groups in the way (with the CMD modifier). Last but not least, there's now great flexibility for configuring (multiple) databases. I think the workflow is now much less idiosyncratic and can do far more than just accessing "Active Projects". That's why a decided to change the name of the project to "DEVONthink Browser".

@bk161124, you may wish to take a look at this workflow, which I have recently updated. It has now a File Action allowing you to move files to the root group(s) of selected database(s).

Two updates: I changed the method for moving the file (it's now actually "moved" into DTP, not imported and deleted), and made to allow for multiple databases without the need to duplicate the workflow,

Olá, @nestorito ! This is a nice idea. I changed the workflow so now we have a "Move to Active Projects" file action. As an extra, an x-devonthink-item URL for the imported file is copied to the clipboard – which you may use to paste a link on a task manager or whatever. The setup has changed: you must now set the name of your database by clicking the "Configure workflow and variables" icon (located on the top right of the workspace area). If you want to use it with multiple databases, simply duplicate the workflow and change the variable accordingly. Have fun!
