You don’t need to ping me every time. I look at every post in this subforum and will get to everything. There are others also waiting, please be patient.

Instead of mkdir, you should use mkdir -p otherwise the command may fail if intermediary directories are missing.

And you should prefer with input as argv over with input as {query}, but in this case the {query} escaping should be good.

The workflow fails is a profile does not have an image:

ERROR: Open Chrome Profile[Script Filter] Code 1: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/vm/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Alfred.alfredpreferences/workflows/user.workflow.E6E61391-7E9B-47B3-980C-1D19EF9F9966/main.py", line 21, in <module>
    filename = profil[str(item)]['last_downloaded_gaia_picture_url_with_size'].split("/")[-1] + ".png"
KeyError: 'last_downloaded_gaia_picture_url_with_size'

Also, since it just does one specific Chrome-related thing, could you use an icon which is not the official one? https://font2png.com is a good resource for creating fast icons. I recommend having a non-transparent background with rounded corners.

Good to see you writing workflows in Python, though.

1. modify to  mkdir -p 

2. use arg instead of query

3. consider last_downloaded_gaia_picture_url_with_size not exist 

4, logo change

 

This logo, do you think it is okay?

This will be live soon at https://alfred.app/workflows/alanhe/open-chrome-profile/.

 

Another note: you have turned on “Alfred Filters Results” but then set the Keyword to “No Argument”. That won’t produce any results. Change it to “Argument Optional” and you get filtering for free.
