are there any Alfred workflows to trigger a HoudahSpot Template based search?

thanks in advance for your time and help

Here's what I use - called from a keyword with space & argument required, in a Run Script object set to osascript (AS) with input as {query}

 

on run
	set theQuery to "{query}"
	tell application "HoudahSpot"
		search theQuery template POSIX file "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/com.houdah.HoudahSpot4/Templates/templatename.hstemplate"
	activate
	end tell
end run

I'm sorry @dfay . I have not created workflows in a while and I am rusty.

Your keyword + script solution works fine for one template.

I can't remember how to create a workflow with one keyword (hs) which would display a selection of templates to choose from

thanks again very much

Unless you're going to be regularly producing new templates and really need to search dynamically, I'd use a List Filter.

Hi Friends,

This workflow interests me to activate some templates in Houdhspot. The issue is that I don't know how to put into action...

I don't know how to create a workflow for this.

 

You can help me?

 

Thanks,

Bruno

Hi, @dfay and @rob213, Is possible to share your workflow so I can modify to my use? I don't know how to get this done...
