The issue is that the original post doesn’t say which workflow it refers to. It should be posted on the thread for that workflow. Then someone may be able to help with the specific case.

Hmm I'd never noticed that but there's an easy fix - go into each of the Run Script objects and the Script Filter and uncheck Escaping....Brackets.

You sir are genius

Updated to v.1.2 - added first day of next month - added external triggers for M of next week and 1st of next month - updated so snippets will paste in Alfred (using the trick here: https://www.alfredforum.com/topic/11765-snippet-triggers-triggered-in-alfred-dont-paste-to-alfred/?tab=comments#comment-61652 )

It would be great if the preferences search could (optionally) include the notes field of workflow objects. I have a lot of Hotkey triggers that call scripts, so there's no text that I could search for except the descriptions I've added to the objects. Here's an example of where this feature would be useful:

I never needed this until now, but I'm thrilled to see there's a working Alfred-based solution

I’d recommend sips https://robservatory.com/use-sips-to-quickly-easily-and-freely-convert-image-files/ See especially the last link there.

No. I use Drafts for iOS for almost all the same custom web searches I have in Alfred, but there’s no direct equivalent.

TextExpander (legacy) is what they renamed TE Touch to be. Here's the setup in Hazel: this assumes anything you don't want to sync is tagged notForTE Rule 1. for your Alfred snippets folder: Rule 2. (same location) with the embedded script set to the first line here (I also sync to Copied, but I'll just cover TE for now) -- replacing the squiggles with the correct path to the script below: AlftoTE.py you'll need to specify the TE group where you want the synced snippets to appear and add the uuid to

Or to continue with AS, look at the examples here: This is what I used to figure out how to do the recent folders and active folders scripts in And here's a solution for you: set theList to {"Red", "Green", "Blue"} # What next? -- import JSON library set workflowFolder to do shell script "pwd" set json to load script POSIX file (workflowFolder & "/json.scpt") -- Create and add items set theItems to {} repeat with i from 1 to count theList set end of theItems to json's createDictWith({{"title", (item i of theList)

Sure, but it might take me a week or two before I can get it written up. Feel free to nag me.

Is there any chance Alfred could be set to dump the clipboard contents in json somewhere as well? I’d love to be able to pull them in from Dropbox in an ios shortcut.

If you search forums for finder window this is the fourth hit & does what you’re looking for

That’s not likely to help - the underlying problem is a Spotlight issue. I’d avoid using root for anything not absolutely necessary.

If I'm not mistaken the pull down menu is what's referred to in AppleScript as a pop up - the Keynote script above uses this code to select a preset from the same kind of menu: set thePopUp to first pop up button of sheet 1 of window 1 whose description is "Presets" click thePopUp click menu item "6x" of menu 1 of thePopUp

UI scripting can be done in AppleScript (and I think it will be the same process for Alfred and KM, but I don't use KM) -- but it does tend to be fragile. see this for an example that still works after six years, with a print sheet (i.e. same kind of element you're looking at) https://github.com/derickfay/keynote-to-pdf I was only able to create this by using the script here to identify the UI elements: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20111208191312748 see also the resources in this thread:

right - I get that - just saying that there's another way to find the exact keyword or name that you can then enter in the prefs

Couldn't you make an alias to a folder full of snippets that only exists on one computer, & stick that in the synced snippet folder? update: nope, that won't work as the Alfred Preferences don't seem to resolve aliases....

Note that if you use the snip keyword it does give partial matches. Not the same but it should make it easy enough to find what you're looking for in most cases.
