Automation Task: Front Browser Tab List does get tabs for Google Chrome Window . . . but used to.

[CarlJParker]

 

I'm running into an issue with the following Automation Task Workflow object:

 

Front Browser Tab List

 

When I run this workflow object with a Google Chrome window as the front-most window, I don't get any output from the object. And I get the following output in the debugger:

 

[23:02:16.651] BUG: Get Browser Tabs[Hotkey] Processing complete
[23:02:16.659] BUG: Get Browser Tabs[Hotkey] Passing output '' to Automation Task
[23:02:16.661] BUG: Get Browser Tabs[Automation Task] Running task 'Front Browser Tab List' with no arguments
[23:02:18.367] ERROR: BUG: Get Browser Tabs[Automation Task] Task Error: ../../../../com.alfredapp.automation.core/safari/.common/tabs: execution error: Error: Unrecognised type: 0 (-2700)

 

However, if I run the

 

Chromium Browser Tab List

 

object, I do get output and the output is correct.

 

I believe this might be a regression in the most recent version of Automation Tasks because this worked previously.

 

I have an exported workflow that reproduces the issue . . . but I don't see a way to attach it to this bug report. If that would be useful, let me know how I should get it to you.

What happens if you use another browser, such as Safari?

transfer.sh is good temporary storage.

 

I’ll also need to see a screen recording of it happening, with the debugger open.

The Front Browser Tab List automation task also fails when I run it on Safari. Here is the output from the debugger:

 

[17:42:58.005] BUG: Get Browser Tabs[Keyword] Processing complete
[17:42:58.010] BUG: Get Browser Tabs[Keyword] Passing output '' to Automation Task

Here is a screen recording that shows the issue with both Chrome and Safari (via transfer.sh)

Here is a workflow that you can use to reproduce the issue (also via transfer.sh)

Thank you, that was useful. Update to 2024.1 and it should be fixed.
