I'm able to connect the 'Conditional utility' to 'Reveal in Finder' then connect to 'Call External'.

What I want to do with 'Call External' is, I want to close all apps including Visual StudioCode (so the current opened folder by Visual Code is closed), but in the next action I need to open Visual Studio Code again and opening the new folder.

If I place 'Quit Apps' in the last order, then Visual Studio Code will be opened in the early steps, and then later will be closed by Quit Apps'.

So I have to put Call External in the last order of actions?

Click where it says Workflow Triggers…

I did

Vitor, Thanks alot for your help.

Anyway how can I connect to other action after Call External? Because it looks like there is no exit connector from Call External to other action.

Hi guys, I'm trying to create my own workflow that will let me switch project workspace setup quickly (I have multiple active projects).

These are what I want the workflow doing :

1. When I type ws then alfred will display available options, for example :

- Project A
- Project B
- Project C

2. if I choose Project A and press enter, it should :
3. Quit all opened apps except Mail app, Forklift and Notes if I choose Project A, quit all opened apps except Mail app and Forklift if I choose Project B  and so on.

2. Reveal folder Documents/Project A with Forklift

3. Open url http://localhost/Project A with chrome browser

4. Open folder Project A with Visual Studio Code

5. Open Fork app for git commit 

My questions are 

1. I use keyword input to create ws keyword. But how can I create options Project A, Project B and Project C that will be used as variable in the next actions?

2. I know I can I quit all opened apps with exception using this workflow but how can I call this workflow inside my workflow with and use the chosen options variable (Project A, Project B )? 

Thanks and sorry for my noob question. 

Thanks guys. Before this, I always thinking to create a custom workflow is always about phyton coding which is I'm not capable of. Now I'm realize that Alfred is able to do a lot of things in more sophisticated way. It's my fault not exploring Alfred that much for years and only using other user's workflows. I'll start to learn to create my own workflow now. Thanks

I'm thinking of something like this :

It will be useful if you multiple projects so you can switch your working space quickly. Let say, when I finished working on project A and want to start working on project B, I just need to open alfred and typing : ga projectb then all applications that I need for that project b will be opened automatically. I even don't need to remember location of the project b files in the finder.

Actually there's an app doing this called workspaces. But it's not integrated with alfred and it has some limitations. Hopefully will see this feature in alfred, to group several actions or workflows and run them at once.

I'd like to suggest Custom Group of Actions feature

Let say I want these perform these actions everytime I start to work on my project A :

1. Quit all opened apps

2. Open folder A with finder

3. Open url http://localhost/myproject with chrome browser

4. Open folder A with Visual Studio Code

5. Open fork app for git commit 

and I want to call that group of action by calling it using for example : ga work1

And whenever I want to take a break I will use keyword : ga netflix that will :

1. Quit all opened apps

2. Open https://netflix.com with safari browser

This group of action can be created from Alfred Preferences. 

sorry my bad, found it

Hi guys, the new snippets auto expansion is nice. Thanks for such a great update! 

Anyway is it possible to set different format for {date} and {time} ?

I'd like to see this feature too. I'm using atext and usually use cursor placement in to speed up my coding workflow. 

Here's some of my snippet examples :

<!-- {cursor} --?> 

<div class="{cursor}"></div>

<p>{cursor}</p>

Really useful. Thanks!

Nice one. Thanks!

Awesome, Useful when you have a lot of workflows installed. Thanks!

Hey,

 

From what I know the only way to see the keywords is to browse through all workflows in Alfred... and I don't think there's a workflow that shows all available workflow shortcuts, although it's very doable but involves a lot of work (browsing through each workflow folder, reading each workflow's configuration plist file and searching for keywords, building the results), and I don't think most people would need such a workflow, so I'm sorry to disappoint

I just found today a workflow doing exactly what I asked earlier, so the answer is possibe

Check this out http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/1572-browse-alfred-extension-alfext/ 

The one thing hard coded, and maybe it shouldn’t, is the Applications category icon that points to /Applications/App Store.app. Are you using Mountain Lion?

Yes. I'm using Mountain Lion. But reinstalling the workflow with the new one seems fix the problem. Thanks

I can't get it works . it always in state "Loading Recent Items"

Hmm sometimes it works sometimes not strange

Hi nice one, but I found it's abit slow when gathering result.

Ah I see. Well it's ok then. thanks for your help

Hi, I have a LOT of workflows (I've been a fan of workflow lately lol) added on my alfred installation and sometimes I forgot its keyword.

Is there any easy way to display workflow list inside the alfred itself or is there any workflow available to show up all available workflow shortcuts?

Thanks!
