Maduranga Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 I am new in the forum, so pardon me if I haven't found a previous thread that this was already discussed with my quick research. Do you know any way of dynamically adding data (like from a URL, or from a file in the system at snippet template parsing time) when processing the template and pasting the outcome to the user's cursor prompt? I would like ideally to: - Populate a Dynamic Placeholder, that can query a web URL, and grab the Markdown text from there - Then use that in the snippet template, parse as usual, and paste to the cursor location as usual snippets do I know it might be a tricky ask, but it would be wonderful if that's possible! Because this way Alfred can work with real-time data! Link to comment
vitor Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Welcome @Maduranga, Seems like you want a Snippet Trigger which will do something, most likely via a Run Script Action since you want to query a URL, then use a Copy to Clipboard Output to paste. However, without knowing exactly what you’re trying to accomplish, it’s quite difficult to be more precise about the steps. Link to comment
