Chrome Apps are akin to websites packaged to run inside Chrome, they don’t support the same kind of automation native apps do. Plus, they’ve been discontinued two years ago and the extended support will end next month.

Wait, “Hi, Holden.” is really part of the output? That is really weird. Does that mean anything to you? Do you have any file or folder with that in the name?

Good catch. Hasn’t been an issue for me in practice. The table is not meant to be user-editable, it’s to be consumed by Alfred where that doesn’t make a difference. That we can use it outside of it is a hack (albeit a very stable one), not a supported API. Especially when we’re talking editing the table and not just reading it. If you need that kind precision, try leveraging {clipboard} (and comparing it to the DB, maybe).

Welcome @David Burman, Your post is a bit bare. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Are you looking for the in keyword?

It’s the one with the biggest ts (timestamp). I grab the most recently copied URL with SELECT item FROM (SELECT item,MAX(ts) FROM clipboard WHERE dataType = 0 AND item LIKE "http%"); You don’t have any files or image data in your clipboard history. Select a file and hit ⌘C or save a screenshot to the clipboard (⌘⇧⌃4) and dataHash will be populated. You can find the file it refers to in the ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Databases/clipboard.alfdb.data directory.

Start by running :gdrebuildcache and wait for the notification saying it’s done. If that doesn’t fix it, I’ll need a video or it happening with the debugger open.

What exactly does that mean? What are you doing and what is happening (including debugger output)?

No, it means it’s missing a package. One which used to ship with macOS but no longer does, to make a bridge between Python and the macOS APIs. Running python3 -m pip install PyObjC in the Terminal may fix it.

Took a look and it seems something changed in the response Google provided the Workflow. It may not be fixable.

Give Alfred Unicode a try.

There are a few Chrome bookmarks Workflows around (searching the forum and/or GitHub is bound to produce results) which may list those. Alternatively, AlfredBookmarklet does not read your bookmarks but is specifically geared for the use case of sending JavaScript to the frontmost tab (remove the javascript:(function() { boilerplate).

Ending with {query}, to take the argument.

Privacy restrictions? This is due to Apple removing the language runtimes, it’s not related to privacy. Nor is it fixable by Alfred alone, this is something Apple fundamentally changed. It’s the comment above.

The issues are probably related and have the same solution. Omitting relevant information makes it harder to figure out the cause. Have you followed all the troubleshooting steps? But did you use the Migration Assistant? How long have you waited between reindexes? Those should take a good while, so doing it multiple times before it’s done might just be delaying it.

None of those are true random, and that feature has been consistent with this Workflow from the start.

Welcome @donkdonk, I need the information requested on the top post.

Hello @jswifty, I’ve moved your post to the correct thread. For future reports, please run !1pdiagnostic and provide the result. In this case, the solution is that you need to give Alfred Full Disk Access.

There is none. Which is why there are so many ways and apps to do it. The best way to organise files is the best way which works for you. Some people have files scattered all around but tag them well, while others never tag but use meticulous folder hierarchies. It also greatly depends on the types of files you regularly deal with—searching for PDFs can be easier than searching for images because we can search by the contents of the former. I organise my files hierarchically because that’s how computers work. It’s the most robust way to ensure your organisation won’t be messed up when you need to move them around. That matters to me because when I upgrade macOS, I mostly do fresh installs. On the same vein, I wouldn’t trust any app to dictate my organisation, especially not a VC-backed company which can be sold or be discontinued at the most inconvenient of times. Alfred—by contrast—works with the system, it doesn’t impose a methodology. I organise my files in folders with a sensical hierarchy. When I need something, I search for it in Alfred by the file’s name or some directory where it should be in and drill down until I find it. The files which aren’t organised or that I’m working on tend to be on the Desktop or the Downloads folder, so I built RecentlyAdded to quickly reach those. Finally, I have a couple of File Filters for common targeted searches.

Welcome @motiononly22, That depends entirely on the app itself. As far as I’m aware there is no official YouTube app on macOS, so what app are you using?

It’s faster than the previous version of the script when including special characters, so that doesn’t really seem like a concern. It’s not like it’s too slow for a user-generated action. But if you have better suggestions, I’m open to them. The requirements are that it uses true randomness and that the result is returned as a string or JSON. For the previously used solutions I had to parse the HTML response, which worked fine but has the potential to break on its own due to website changes (though granted, those sources are unlikely to). One of the goals of the update was more robust future-proofing, hence removing the Ruby dependency (before its inevitable removal from macOS) and changing the source to something with a cleaner output. Given the new source, I’m still deciding on the approach for that. I may append every ASCII punctuation symbol to the returned string a random number of times for each, then make them part of the final shuffle.

Welcome @charms, You’ll also need to install the fixed version of this Workflow from the table.

Update. Rewritten in JXA.Added default_length Workflow Environment Variable for custom default password size.Removed option for password with special characters.Now uses ANU QRNG and shuffles on top of that. To update, download the latest version (same URL) or wait a few days and it’ll prompt you to on next usage, since it uses OneUpdater.

Welcome @Oli, Set the google_drive_path Workflow Environment Variable to whichever path contains your drives. The top post details it and the second one expands on it.

Update. Add https:// to schemless URLs.Update internal CLI.Switch Match Mode to Word Matching in 1p Script Filter.

Welcome @Henri, Please see the second post on this thread. It teaches you how to properly set the correct Google Drive path and how to provide the necessary information for debugging (I need the output of !gddiagnostic). You probably haven’t given your Terminal Full Disk Access, under System Preferences → Security & Privacy → Privacy → Full Disk Access. Alfred will need it too, to access the directory.
