bounce Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I've made a workflow to search multiple sites for a keyword, is it possible to add Finder to this keyword search workflow? Ideally, I'd like to be able to trigger a couple searches with Finder, one for name:x and also x in Finder documents (in another tab?). The name:x is more important though, so if only one can be done that's ok. Any of this possible? I've tried a couple hours to figure the Finder part out so help is appreciated. Link to comment
vitor Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I’m not seeing an option in Finder’s AppleScript dictionary to start a search. You might have to resort to GUI automation, like pressing the right shortcuts. Have you considered a File Filter instead? bounce 1 Link to comment
bounce Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share Posted August 7, 2022 Hadn't thought of those options, mostly because I haven't used Alfred to its full potential and didn't know about them. Thank you for the links, I'll see what I can do with those. Cheers Link to comment
