This works perfectly. Thank you so much! Beer on the way!

I am trying to create a workflow to open URL from website that nags to login in when all I want is to read article which opens perfectly if in a private Safari window. The three scripts below all work individually, but I have not been able to make them work together. I cobbled this together by searching for AppleScript to accomplish the task. I am unable to get script 1 to pass its information to the next. Script 2 opens a private window, but if I add script 3 to it it doesn't execute the open URL portion. I entered a hard coded set of TextURL in script 3 as proof of concept. Thank you for helping. ---------------------------------------------------------------- -- Script 1 Get the current URL ---------------------------------------------------------------- tell application "Safari" to return URL of front document set textURL to text returned of the result return textURL ---------------------------------------------------------------- -- Script 2 This opens a Private mode Safari Window ---------------------------------------------------------------- on is_running(appName) tell application "System Events" to (name of processes) contains appName end is_running set isRunning to is_running("Safari") if isRunning then tell application "Safari" to activate delay 0.5 tell application "System Events" to keystroke "n" using {shift down, command down} else tell application "Safari" to activate delay 1 tell application "System Events" keystroke "w" using command down keystroke "n" using {shift down, command down} end tell end if ---------------------------------------------------------------- -- Script 3. This will cause Safari to open the textURL ---------------------------------------------------------------- -- I would like this next statement to use the variable from script 1 above, -- but this lets me test the script set textURL to "https://www.apple.com" -- end of test variable setting tell application "Safari" tell window 1 tell current tab set URL to textURL end tell end tell end tell
