Feature request for the 5.5 beta: Outputting data in table format:

@vitorthat's perfect - exactly what I was looking for 👊 Cheers @universe- also useful to know

This may already be possible, but is it possible for alfred to replace the file selector when uploading / selecting / saving files in finder? This would be an awesome feature to see - the alfred file navigator is so much faster than finder!

You are a legend, this is great.

x2 please - 'sort by date added' would be very useful. Use case: Like a precision version of the 'recents' folder when using alfred file explorer. 90% of the time I'm looking for the most recently added file to a folder when navigating folders.

You are a hero, genuinely one of the most useful workflows ever. Like @JJJJ I was a big fan of the old google one

Doh! That's excellent, you've thought of everything

Just a suggestion to make Alfred UI more keyboard friendly - when creating and saving a snippet, the user still has to go to the trackpad to save the snippet. There's a few examples of these in the Alfred UI, which would make sense to make entirely navigatable via the keyboard! I'm using Homerow here to bridge the gap, but full native keyboard support for saving snippets and moving around the Alfred preferences would be brilliant.

Thanks Vero! So here's the workflow and an example of the results producing the bookmarks. It's probably me being stupid here, but I'd be grateful for any help

Would also love to use this! And OP, what an exciting addition to Alfred, I hope it's on the roadmap for core. Would take workflows to a new level

@aharpole do you remember if there was anything specific that you did? My file filter works (searching in the scope of one folder) but it is still showing bookmarks amongst the results

This feature would be a fantastic addition to Alfred: the screenshot below is from bettertouchtool. A similar thing can be done in keyboard maestro - finding a button on screen in an app or web page and clicking. This seems like the ultimate bridge for all automation, as it allows anyone to build custom workflows and create keyboard shortcuts for things that aren't natively supported.

Thanks Vitor, that's very helpful 👌

This may be a stupid question, but is there a way to trigger a workflow on a specific app launch? e.g. when opening one app, to trigger opening another one, or when launching zoom to hide desktop?

Very true! I use the duckduckgo 'i'm feeling lucky' as my main fallback search as a close (and more privacy friendly) approximation for this feature

The 'siri suggested website' feature is very powerful in safari search bar and I've found it to be extremely accurate. A possible workflow or feature to build this into alfred search would be awesome, much faster than typing a search term, selecting the fallback result, and clicking on the page of google results, when you know exactly what you want.

Yes, although I mean as an object in the visual workflow builder for luddites like me to use

There is a native way in macOS shortcuts to run from a keyboard shortcut, but being able to run them as standard outputs within alfred workflows would be 👌👌

I miss the inline google search workflow! It was probably my most used workflow, I'm surprised there aren't more people wanting this. Has anyone made one for any other search engine since the google API changes?

Thanks Dean - it looks like it's finding my calendar events but not picking up any of the conference URLs :39:02 video-conferences.py:65 DEBUG max_cache_age=300 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:67 DEBUG lookahead_days=5 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://teams\.live\.com/meet/[a-z0-9]+ 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://([a-z0-9]+\.)?zoom\.us/j/\d+(\?pwd=[a-z0-9]+)? 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://meet\.google\.com/[a-z-]+ 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://[a-z0-9]+\.zoom\.us/[a-z0-9_.-]+/\d+\?pwd=[a-z0-9]+ 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:76 DEBUG calendar='Default' 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://([a-z0-9]+\.)?zoom\.us/j/\d+(\?pwd=[a-z0-9]+)? 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://meet\.lync\.com/[a-z0-9_.-]+/[a-z0-9_.-]+/[a-z0-9]+ 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:82 DEBUG regex=https://teams\.microsoft\.com/l/meetup-join/[a-zA-Z0-9/%?&=._-]+ 14:39:02 workflow.py:1695 DEBUG loading cached data: /Users/name/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred/Workflow Data/net.deanishe.alfred.video-conferences/events.cpickle 14:39:02 video-conferences.py:245 DEBUG 0/90 event(s) in specified accounts & calendars are video conferences 14:39:02 workflow.py:1468 DEBUG reading settings from /Users/name/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Workflow Data/net.deanishe.alfred.video-conferences/settings.json

So glad you made this one Dean. If Alfred has access to the calendars, do you need to separately allow the workflow access to calendar? No prompt has come up, and the workflow isn't pulling up any upcoming meetings even after tweaking the event across different calendars and adjusting the config.

Thanks - it was happening with all videos. Although it was saying youtube-dl is up to date, I tried again after using sudo youtube-dl -U and that's now working

Vitor you're a legend. Happy to pay for your time if you can identify what's going wrong here: I've run that command, youtube-dl is now up to date, but still showing URL invalid. Last time I used the workflow successfully was 2-3 days ago. Video link below. MacOS version: 11.2.3 Alfred version: 4.3.4 [18:08:50.910] Logging Started...

I'm having the same issue - previously working but not anymore - I don't think I have brew installed on this machine. How did you update it? If I hadn't installed brew before, would there be a different way to update the dependencies?

I see that preview shows the file size, is there any way to customise which fields show up in the file preview? For me, it only shows 'created' and 'modified', nothing I can see in the settings on how to change this.
