@svenko99 Cool workflow! Everything works well, you might want to check your spelling of "Notification" as "Notifitaciton" for the output variable

[svenko99]

@FireFingers21 Thanks for the feedback! I've fixed the typo and updated the workflow. Glad you like it. If you have any other suggestions, let me know!

I do have one: currently the notification shows two lines, Alfred 5 at the top and then Artist Name - Music Name. Instead, I think it’d look better and clearer to have the artist name at the top and the music name at the bottom (or vice-versa). You can use the Split Arg Utility to quickly separate the output into two variables that you can then use in the notification.

Thank you for putting the workflow in the Gallery! I've updated it to improve the notification format.

This workflow is awesome! Would it be possible to have the workflow write each Shazam'd song to a "History" file?

Released version 1.2 that has Shazam history. Just type "shazam history" in Alfred, and you will get the titles of "shazamed" music. 😃

@svenko99 You have a typo in the keyword. It says histroy instead of history. Also, the rickrolling is a funny idea, but given that there should be a way to delete entries from the history.

Thanks for pointing that out! I’ve fixed the typo and added an option to delete entries from the history. Turns out "histroy" was my dyslexia showing off. 😅
