Newbie - Can I use Alfred 4 to search emails in Spark?

[tobyto]

 

I just got on board with Alfred 4. I wonder if I can search for my emails in Spark (3rd party email client)?  Do I need to create a workflow? And how? Thanks!

If Spark has added scripting it’s possible, but I’d be surprised given the company’s record.

If Spark doesn’t support scripting, which seems likely, you might be able to configure this workflow to work with it:

Thanks for the suggestion - I have installed the workflow and configured to Spark. Then I typed "spark", but the only thing I can do is to open the app instead of searching the messages within the app. 

 

On another note, I have just installed your ZotHero workflow. It's awesome!

@deanishe I think I have solved the problem and managed to use the workflow. I just need to type in "search" instead, and need to set the pasteboard value to 0. Thanks!

@dfayThanks! I noted from other threads that Readdle 's apps don't support applescript. It's a shame since I like using many of their apps like Spark and PDF Expert.
