How do we update workflows already on Alfred Gallery?

[Stephen_C]

I have a workflow on the Alfred Gallery (Open macOS Settings Panes) and have just propogated an update of that workflow to GitHub. I'm wondering what is the procedure for updating the workflow on the Alfred Gallery.

 

The comet symbol beside the workflow name in my Alfred workflows has been replaced by an up arrow which rather suggests something has to happen but it's not entirely clear what!

You don’t need to do anything, updates are regularly checked for, reviewed, and updated. It was done earlier today with two. Yours will be underway shortly.

 

The symbol changed because your local version did as well. Once the Gallery has the new version live, they’ll be the same and the icon will revert.

Many thanks for the reply @vitor - and for all your support and help given on these forums. I hope you can have a happy and relaxing Christmas.

Workflow updates by Alfred Gallery is great....very easy to use.

 

Is there a way to find new workflows by upload date on Alfred Gallery? I checked all workflows once and would like to discover new ones getting published on it.

Hi all,

The updates should run automatically for all workflows? I've seen my Alfred Gallery and shows updates available, but I don't know how to run.
I've other outdated workflows that use oneUpdater but doesn't update also...

Can someone provide some help understanding what can I do to facilitate workflows updates?

thanks

No. Just like Alfred itself, you tell it to update when you’re ready.

Go to Alfred Preferences → Workflows and right-click a workflow with the up arrow symbols and do “Update from Alfred Gallery”.

Those are a different mechanism and are handled by each developer. A workflow which uses OneUpdater and is added to the Gallery will remove it and instead be updated with the Gallery mechanism.

Thanks. With Alfred Gallery all fine.

My issue is with Instant Notion Search. the workflow utilize OneUpdater but I don't know how to get it updated...

"Comes with pre-configured support for OneUpdater for automatic version updates."

Can you help me with this also?

OneUpdater fires on its own. If there’s an update, it will let you know.

but it doesn't work for me...

What exactly do you mean when you say that? What are you doing and what is happening? Are you sure you’re not already in the latest version? Either way, it’s best you ask the developer of the workflow directly. While I did develop OneUpdater, I have no control over how people implement it.

[bsilvamm]

It's not in the latest version. Latest is 0.6 and I'm on 0.5.3

The workflow doesn't update. if it's automatic it should I guess. I don't Know how to run it manually either...
