Nested Workflows and Applescript API

[aMoniker]

I have two questions that someone here might know about.

 

I'd like to know if it's possible to call a workflow from within another workflow (or, run a generic alfred command as if I had typed it in).

 

Also, I'd like to know if there's an Alfred applescript API that I could use to control Alfred from applescript.

 

Using some great workflows already and looking forward to writing my own

Both of these things are possible. Pop open the AppleScript Editor and open Alfred's dictionary to view all of the commands available for Alfred via AppleScript. As for calling a workflow from another workflow, you could use the AppleScript or you could use Alfred's new external triggers.
