bob 2.0 0 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I have just downloaded Alfred and bought the power pack. Now trying to get the 'mail' to work. I have added ~\library\mail to the search scope but when I enter for example em or emfrom and a keyword I am redirected to google search. the same happens for example with the Evernote app. I am running Big Sur.

Vero 470 Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 @bob 2.0 As per the first post in this thread, this workflow is unfortunately only suitable for macOS Mojave and older. Due to some changes made by Apple in macOS Catalina, it's no longer possible for third-party apps to access your Mail data Cheers, Vero Link to post
dfay 212 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 HoudahSpot has added a Mail plug-in that lets it search Mail when Mail is running - in Big Sur at least, not sure about Catalina - @Vero do you expect something similar in Alfred's future? Link to post

No. HoudahSpot is using a private API to search mail. Vero has said that Alfred won’t be doing that. Link to post
Vero 470 Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 @dfay We've had a look at how they do it, in case there was a new reliable way to search Mail, but as @deanishe says, it's using private APIs that aren't intended for use by external apps. Here's my more complete response after we investigated this: Cheers, Vero Link to post
dfay 212 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Oh I see, thanks. I was hoping it would (and thinking that logically it should) be a matter of granting an app permission to access Mail but no such luck. Link to post
TENCA 0 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Hello, I’m newbie here and how about Spark instead of Mail.app? is it possible to make flow with spark?! Link to post
deanishe 1,447 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Hi @TENCA, welcome to the forum. This thread is about Mail.app. If you have a question about another app, please search for an appropriate thread to ask in: https://www.alfredforum.com/search/?q=spark&quick=1&type=forums_topic Link to post
