Lino Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 hi! probably wrong thread: question about shortcuts in macos monterey how is it possible to search for apple shortcuts from alfred and trigger them? f.e. type "Rename Files" in alfred and the shortcut "Rename Files" pops up. it's already possible with spotlight search (see screenshot below) at the moment, i write an apple script for every shortcut like the one below: tell application "Shortcuts" run the shortcut named "Rename Files" end tell ... which sucks. thanks in advance lino Link to comment
vitor Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Welcome @Lino, Moved your post to a more appropriate forum and as a new topic so it can get the proper visibility. I’m not on Monterey yet so I can’t test, but you should be able to list your shortcuts via /usr/bin/shortcuts list, then parsing that output to an Alfred Script Filter. Lino 1 Link to comment
Skone Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 There is a native way in macOS shortcuts to run from a keyboard shortcut, but being able to run them as standard outputs within alfred workflows would be 👌👌 Link to comment
vitor Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 @bazerman That’s what I described. Link to comment

pontus Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Are there any plans for this to be integrated as a feature in Alfred itself? Link to comment
Vero Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 @pontus Shortcuts integration is definitely on Alfred's roadmap More to come in the near future! Natalie, octothorpe, nadnosliw and 3 others 6 Link to comment
