I use Alfred for a freaking lots of actions and that's why I love it so much, but my primary use (and I'm pretty sure that's the case of most Alfred users) is to use it as an Application Launcher.
However lots of applications nowadays are web apps: Gmail, Facebook, Google Reader, Deezer, Remember the milk,...
The issue I have when using Alfred to launch web app is that I can't switch to one of them if it's already opened, Alfred would launch a new duplicate tab.
For instance, when using "Open Gmail" action in Alfred, I would love to have it check first if my default browser already has Gmail opened in any tabs and then would just switch to this tab instead.
I know this can be kind of done using Applescript but it would be awesome to have this feature built-in as an option in the "Open url" feature

This is a json encoded string. This is really simple to parse, depending on the language you use in your workflow.
In PHP, for instance just do:
$parsed = json_decode($api_response, true);
return $parsed['links']['image_link'];

Just a pretty simple workflow to play around with Alfred 2.0
