Fastmail - Create your masked emails on demand.

[agile.art8362]

Hello, 

 

Following a recent workflow I have seen, I've decided to create a workflow using it's API directly to create a Masked email along with a description.

 

Disclaimer : I am not a developper and I am submitting this workflow for improvement.

Fastmail is a paid email service focused on speed, security, and user privacy, offering email, calendar, and contact management features.
The masked email feature creates unique, disposable email addresses to protect your real address and enhance privacy.
The idea of this workflow is to quickly create disposable email addresses on demand with Alfred.

`Fastmail` + keyword to create the email with a description and copy it directly to the clipboard.

 

How-to?

 

- Login to your account on fastmail.com
- Click on settings, view all settings
- Go to Privacy & Security, Manage API Tokens.
- Create the token, copy it.
- In the workflow, edit the "Run script module"
- Paste your API token at the begining of the script in the API_Token field.

Welcome @agile.art8362,

 

Thank you for sharing. Some suggestions for improvement:

• Users should never have to edit scripts to enter data. In this case the API token. That’s what Workflow Configuration is for.
• The workflow should have an About, explaining how it works.
• The name is a tad generic. It should be something more specific like “FastMail Masked Emails” since it does one thing and doesn’t interact with FastMail as a whole.
• You can make the keyword user-configurable.
• Instead of adding the packaged workflow to the GitHub repository as a file, it should be a release. See our blog post on it, in your case you only need to care from step 6 onward.

If anything was unclear, do feel free to ask.

Hello @vitor

 

Thank you for your precious help.

 

I modified the workflow based on your advices. 

 

Could you please review and tell me if there's something to change ?

There's still one discrepancy in that you've named the Workflow FastMail Masked Emails, but all your documentation still references it as alfred-fastmail.
