I title a lot of files by including the start date of that week

• e.g. Ops Update - Week of 1/22/24

Is there a way to create an Alfred snippet to automatically determine the Monday of that week?

In Excel it would be something like this:

=IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)<=5,TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)+1,TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)+8)

Now it's working! Thank you Vitor!

Welcome @ajburlingame,

 

Seems like RecentlyAdded would fit your needs well. Set it up to use ~/Dropbox/screenshots as one of (or the) directory to check, then use the first option: it shows all folder contents ordered by the most recently added.

This looks great! I changed the directory to ~/Dropbox/screenshots as you suggested but am not seeing any screenshots, just the please wait dialogue. I quit Alfred Preferences and added screen shots after I edited the workflow and that did not work.

Any pointers?

Thank you so much!

As a remote worker, I have to send coworkers multiple screen shots a day as we collaborate on things.

Current behavior

To send my most recent screen shot,

1. I launch Alfred
2. Type 'screen shot'
3. Scan for the most recent time stamp
4. Drag and drop the file from Alfred to Slack

Is there a better/faster way? (ideally I could do everything from my keyboard)

I remember in an older Alfred version, my file results were sorted by Last Modified, so at least the latest screen shot was always at the top.

Thanks!
