Open URL but if page comes back with a 400 status, open a different URL


Recommended Posts

I have a workflow setup to open a specific URL with the argument that I provide as part of the path.  I'd like to add a condition where if the URL that is created using my argument returns a 400 status, a different URL is opened.  I was thinking I could do it with the Utilities > Conditional action, but I can't seem to figure out how to get any information from the Open URL action.  Any suggestions on how I might accomplish this?  Thanks!

The Open URL action doesn’t return the status code. It doesn’t perform a web request, it simply asks macOS to open the given URL (which doesn’t have to be HTTP or open a browser). Update your Automation Tasks, I’ve just added one under URL Processing to get the response code.
