The title says it all. You select a text in any app and use the "Show clipboard history" keyboard shortcut to search for the selected text in the clipboard history. This way you don't have to copy the selected text before searching for it in the clipboard history. (Copying the selected text before searching for it adds a new entry to the clipboard...)
 
It's exactly the same as Show Alfred with selection in OS, but for the clipboard search. 

Usage

Turn off your Mac on a timer via the shutdown keyword. Large Type will show periodically with the remaining time.



Stop an ongoing timer with shutdown abort.



Configure the timer in the Workflow’s Configuration. You can also set apps to close before shutdown, so they do not reopen on next login.

To trigger an immediate shutdown or restart, use the shutdown or restart keywords.

If it's an Electron app, then client-side scripting is probably out of the question: Electron doesn't support AppleScript.
 
Guys, just posting "+1" is very unlikely to get you any closer to having a Teams workflow.
 
There are plenty of people who’ll help if you write the workflow yourself, and others will write you a simple workflow based on an API you've found. But not many will look at a thread of “+1” posts and decide to do literally all of the work for you.
 
Put in a bit of effort yourselves (e.g. go find out if there's an API), and someone who can help is much more likely to reciprocate.

The simple answer to this is Alfred Remote *will* get a major update, but I can't give you a timescale.
 
To keep Alfred's quality as high as possible, we are extremely selective over which features bring the most value to our wider user base. Alfred Remote constitutes a minor part of this user base, so while we have continued to add features to Remove via updates in Alfred itself, the core Alfred Remote app has remained as is.
 
While it would be nice to do a minor update to Remote to include some of the newer iOS features, Apple has evolved iOS significantly since Remote was originally released, with some technologies deprecated, and some new ones introduced, so Remote would need an overhaul to fit with within Apple's framework and "vision", all while trying to keep Remote backwards compatible with Alfred 3.
 
Over the past number of years, I've been keeping a close eye on Swift and Swift UI, and this may provide a perfect platform for a complete Alfred Remote rewrite, but it could be too early to allow this to work on a wider number of older devices.
 
As I said before, when Alfred Remote version 2 comes out, I'd like to keep it as a free update for all current Alfred Remote users.

When Alfred Remote 2 comes out, it'll be a free upgrade for Alfred Remote 1 users

I just released a Screen Sharing workflow with automatic discovery of hosts that have remote desktop enabled. Such amazing things are now possible thanks to the "Script Filter" input!
 
Download — stable version.

I've moved all my snippets from TextExpander to Alfred, and it's actually pretty easy to create the equivalent of a nested snippet using snippet triggers in a workflow .  Not as simple as in TE but easy to do if you don't anticipate continuously creating a lot of new ones (which is still easy but a bit of work.)
 
Here's an example:
 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xu8afkqd4hfzgn2/nested snippets.alfredworkflow?dl=0
 
The snippet values are stored as environment variables and the first two snippet triggers show how to use them.  The third shows how to use a list filter to replace the address value on the fly.  
 
 

Instantly create a new Alfred snippet from selected text in MacOS.
 
See 
 for the background.
 
Snippet Creator
adapted from https://github.com/derickfay/import-alfred-snippets
 
There are two keywords, both of which result in the creation of a new snippet:
 
sc - (single step) Required fields: name|keyword|content -- separated by |
sc2 (multi step) - Enter the snippet text, then you'll be prompted for the keyword / name -- in the interest of speed and simplicity the name is set to the keyword.
 
sc2 also has triggers to pre-population with selected text or clipboard contents, and is also available as a Universal Action.
 
set prefsPath in the environment variables to the path to your snippets folder - e.g. "/Users/someuser/Dropbox/Sync/Alfred 4/Alfred.alfredpreferences/snippets/"
and newSnippetFolder to your desired target folder
 
The workflow posts a notification on success to remind you of your newly created snippet.
 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/85nc52o241qobvm/snippet creator.alfredworkflow?dl=0
 
Version 0.3 (2021-08-04):
- updated to use Universal Actions
 
Version 0.2:
- updated to use a pipe | as a delimiter instead of a comma, and to remove the requirement to enclose text in quotes 
 
Version 0.1:
 initial
 
 

Yep, this is correct  
 
Also, don't forget you can use cmd+s in Alfred's clipboard history to save something you've coped to the clipboard as a snippet.
 
Cheers,
Andrew

Alfred workflow to search the corporate Exchange directory using Outlook
 
Search for contacts in the Exchange server's global address book using either the contact's name or email address.
 
Trigger the workflow using `o <contact name>`. When only one contact is found the workflow additionally
returns the organization hierarchy (the contact's manager and any direct reports).

I know a lot of people currently do use the Caps Lock as the Alfred Key by using Seil and Karabiner apps. But I think it would nice if Alfred had this feature pre-built in the main app. Especially with the changes to Keyboard and Mouse drivers in macOS Sierra. 

Update v1.1.5
 
I've pushed a new version of the workflow to npm, you can upgrade by running
$ npm install -g alfred-polyglot Notable changes since v1.1.3:
 
v1.1.5
- Fixed !set command not working (thanks ErikMinekus)

Hey,
 
I've made my own translation workflow, as the existing ones which I could find didn't quite suit my needs or lacked in some aspects.
 
Features:
"Natural language" input Text auto correction, language auto correction Easy setup Configurable 100% free  
Preview:

 

 

 

 

 
Dependencies:
node.js >=7.6
 
Installation:
Just run the following command in your terminal:
$ npm i -g alfred-polyglot ...or (not recommended) you can download it directly from the GitHub releases page if you don't want to use npm. Note that if you would like to use the npm way in the future you will have to uninstall the workflow completely first.
 
You can also go through the easy, but optional setup.
 
Have fun!
 
GitHub
 

I have re-implemented ctwise's excellent implementation of the Menu Search workflow in Swift.
 
This version is ever so slightly faster (at least on my machine ) - YMMV.
 
Requires OSX 10.7+
 
↓ Download

Refer Github README page for up-to-date information.
Usage
Type m in Alfred to list menu bar items for front most application You can filter menu items by name, or do a fuzzy search.
E.g
m new tab will match the menu item New Tab m cw will match the menu item Close Window  
Setup
Note that Accessibility must be enabled for Alfred in order for this to work correctly.
 
For example, in macOS Sierra, this is configured using the Security and Privacy preference pane, under the Privacy tab with the Accessibility section selected. Alfred must be included in the list of apps allowed to control your computer. This step is required for the workflow to generate the list of menu items, and also click on a specific menu item. 
 
Here's a snapshot of what the preference pane might look like in macOS Sierra.
 

 

v1.6 - per app configuration
You can now specify custom configuration settings to fine tune menu listings for at an app level. Type ms into Alfred to get started.
Here's the settings.txt config I use:
# always show disabled menu items appFilters { app: "BibDesk" showDisabledMenuItems: true } # for Safari, ignore the History and Bookmarks # menus since loading it take a lot of time appFilters { app: "Safari" ignoreMenuPaths { path: "History" } ignoreMenuPaths { path: "Bookmarks" } } # For Finder alone, show the Apple menu entries, # and ignore any recent entries listed in the # Apple > Recent Items menu appFilters { app: "Finder" showAppleMenu: true ignoreMenuPaths { path: "Apple" path: "Recent Items" } }  

Hello!

I made an Alfred 3 workflow to search and switch between open windows in the system and Safari (and Chrome) tabs.

More app-by-app support are (hopefully) coming.

It is uses the companion native app, that's what makes it much faster than the other alternatives.

Sierra only (at the moment).

PS: Thanks to Emanuele Munafò and his "Windows Switcher" workflow for the inspiration.
 

I Sheet You Not
 
Create auto-updating workflows from Excel worksheets. Works like a List Filter but using an Excel file as the data source.
 

  I Sheet You Not is a workflow generator/template for Alfred 3. It reads data from an Excel workbook and displays them in Alfred. You can specify which rows and columns the data are read from, and changes to the data are picked up automatically by the workflow.   Download and installation   Download the workflow from Packal or  GitHub releases and double-click the downloaded I-Sheet-You-Not-X.X.X.alfredworkflow file to install in Alfred.   Usage   Use keyword isyn to create a new copy of the workflow. You can either create an empty copy or search for an Excel file to base the workflow on.   See the documentation for detailed usage/configuration instructions.   Source code   The source is hosted on GitHub.   Bugs and feature requests   Bugs and feature requests should ideally be submitted via GitHub issues, but asking in this thread is cool, too.

Generate relative dates based on a simple input format and your own date formatting parameters (there are some default placeholders you can delete).

Supports multiple locales/languages.



Downloading

Get the workflow from GitHub.

Keywords
date — Generate a formatted date using the [input format][] ↩ — Copy date to clipboard ⌘+↩ — Copy date to clipboard and paste into frontmost app datehelp — Open the help file dateformats — View saved date formats ⌘+↩ — Delete date format dateadd — Add a new date format ↩ — Save the date format datereset — Reset the saved date formats to the defaults Input format

(+/-)<NUM>(w|d|y) where w = week(s), d = day(s) and y = year(s)

You needn't specify a sign: + is understood as the default, so +1d and 1d mean the same thing.

Months are not supported, as it leads to ambiguity: what if today is the 31st, but the target month only has 30 days? Similarly, a year is naively defined as 365 days.

Examples
0 = now = today — today's date 1d — 1 day from now 7d = 1w — 1 week from now -21d = -3w — 3 weeks ago Supported formats

The Workflow includes a few defaults for the locales en_US, en_GB and de_DE.

You can specify your own custom date formats using the formatting options listed at the below links, and you can also specify a language with the format lang=de or lang=de_DE if you want to use dates formatted for a language different to your system's.

For a list of the formatting options, please see the GitHub page or the Packal page.

Examples
%d/%m/%Y — e.g. 21/01/2014 %A %B %d %Y — e.g. Wednesday March 12 2014 %A %d. %B %Y lang=de — e.g. Mittwoch 12. März 2014 Bug reports, feedback

Translate between hundreds of languages with Glosbe.com.
 

By default, the workflow is set up to translate between German and English:
.ende English query — show German translations of English query. .deen German query — show English translations of German query. ENTER — copy selected translation to the clipboard. CMD+ENTER — open translation in browser. glosbehelp — open the included help file in your browser. glosbelang [query] — view and search supported languages. To use other language pairs, you will have to edit the workflow, either changing the included English <-> German Script Filters or adding your own using them as a template.

I'd love a workflow like http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/917-reminders/ that works with Google Tasks http://mail.google.com/mail/help/tasks/

To be honest, I re-downloaded the dictionary dump from dict.cc, spent half an hour thinking how to parse it in a sensible way, couldn't think of an obvious solution, then kinda gave up.
The main issue is that the data dump is rather freely structured. It's not easy to parse reliably into proper data. If you have any thoughts about how that might be done, I'm all ears…
I'll make a note to come back to this next. It's a workflow I use a lot, so any improvement would be a great help to me.

Change your default web browser quickly and easily from within Alfred.
Simple yet effective, this workflow enablea you to easily change your default browser. The official repository is located on Github --> https://github.com/stuartcryan/defaultbrowser-alfred-workflow where any issues can be logged on the issue tracker. I have also put this workflow on Packal.
 

Update Version 1.2 released September 10, 2015:
What has changed:
Feature: Support additional browsers - added FirefoxDeveloperEdition and Webkit Nightly Build Update Version 1.1 released August 8, 2015:
What has changed:
Feature: Support additional browsers - added Chromium, Canary and SeaMonkey Feature: Only show installed browsers Feature: Indicate which browser is the current default Feature: Added hotkey assignments (to launch workflow, launch with "chrome", and launch with "safari") Improvement: Renamed description in Alfred to simply "Default Browser" Improvement: Improved failure feedback Improvement: Major code refactor to remove duplication and speed up the workflow Improvement: Added an icon to the workflow Improvement: defaultbrowser binary has been updated to better support integrating. This code has been put into a pull request for the official publication of defaultbrowser.
Workflow Details:
A simple workflow to allow quick and easy changing of the default browser on OSX using a workflow in Alfred.
Installation
Download the .alfredworkflow file or you can get it on Packal. Run to import into Alfred Donations
This workflow represents many hours effort of development, testing and rework. The images that have been licensed for this workflow from DepositPhotos also needed a bit of my moolah. So if you love the workflow, and get use out of it every day, if you would like to donate as a thank you to buy me more caffeine giving Diet Coke, some Cake, or to put towards a shiny new gadget you can donate to me via Paypal.
 

 
You should also consider getting into contact with Margus Kerma and donating to Margus also for the work that has bene put into the defaultbrowser binary.
Usage
db < browser > Note - if you try to set the default browser that is already active as the default you will just get a notification. Browsers currently supported:
Chrome Firefox Opera Safari Chromium - New in V1.1 Canary - New in V1.1 SeaMonkey - New in V1.1 Screenshots

 

 

 

 
Troubleshooting
If you are finding that you are seeing browsers listed that you have installed previously but no longer have on your system you will need to clear out all your default handlers.
Unfortunately, this is the only solution I have found to date, you should research it in depth before you use it. The following command will re-initialise all the "handlers" OSX knows about and will therefore resolve the issue, it will also likely require you to set up all your custom file associations again.
In other words... you do this at your own risk, I do not support this in any way shape or form...
The command you will need to run on the terminal is: lsregister -kill

FWIW, dict.cc makes their database available for download here.
 
If you use the dictionary a lot, I'd recommend grabbing that and building an offline workflow based on it, as it's way faster (and far more reliable) than one that parses the HTML output of an online search.
 
I made one for myself years ago, but I won't release it because you're not allowed to distribute the wordlist
