Rob Ismaylov Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 Hi there, hope to stumble across somebody that might help my poor scripting skills... I am looking to create a workflow that: 1. Opens up Chrome at 8PM every Tuesday & Thursday. 2. Then opens a specific URL. 3. Then scrolls down. 4. Then moves the mouse to a specific position and left clicks. I need help with the time trigger and the scripting of the scrolling, mouse moving and clicking. I have the X,Y positions of the mouse, but that's about as far as I got. Does it make a difference whether to use AppleScript or JS? Would really appreciate the help! Thanks, Rob

Alfred is designed to only respond to user actions. You should look into launchd and Launch Agents. 9 hours ago, Rob Ismaylov said: I am looking to create a workflow that Instead of describing your proposed solution, could you tell us what you're actually trying to achieve? This sounds a lot like an XY problem. You’ll probably get a more helpful answer if you tell us what your goal is. There are half a dozen better ways to interact with a webserver than the way you're trying to do it. Edited August 31, 2020 by deanishe
