solved [SOLVED] Snippet Triggers Don't Appear

[ingenol]

I'm sure I'm doing something embarrassingly simple wrong: I've merely imported the "Snippet Triggers - Getting Started" workflows, but when I type their prefixes/keywords nothing appears in Alfred. I've ensured I have granted Alfred Accessibility access. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The point of snippets is to call them outside Alfred. Type the snippet on a text field (or anywhere else, really) and it will expand / run the action.

If you go to Alfred Preferences → Features → Snippets → Auto Expansion Options → Options, you’ll even see that Alfred is set by default as an app where snippets do not expand in.

Thank you so much! I didn't fully grok that even though I was in a workflow, the trigger would be a snippet typed outside of Alfred. It makes perfect sense now.
