I want to assign url to a variable and open with with 'Run Script' workflow, but it won't work


Recommended Posts

Hello. I'm trying to open Zoom meeting URL that is in my iCalendar using 'Run Script' in Workflow. I am using ical-buddy for the purpose.

I wrote the code below to select my "School" calendar, get some URL in it (which is either Zoom or Discord in my case so apologies for a lazy regex), and open it with Chrome.

url=$(icalbuddy -ic 'School' eventsToday | egrep -o 'https:\/\/.*') && open -a "Google Chrome" $url

If I paste this straight to terminal, it works perfectly. However, once I put this in 'Run Script' object in the Workflow that I am working on, it would not open the desired link.

If I hard-code URL like below, it would open the link, so I suppose it is the problem with ical-buddy and grepping the link.

url='https://www.google.com' && open -a "Google Chrome" $url

I would really appreciate any insight.

 

Thank you. 

 

P.S. I have /bin/zsh as Language
