Sandbox Permissions for Clipboard Monitoring and Modification in a macOS App
Hello, I’m developing a sandboxed macOS app using Qt, which will be distributed via the Mac App Store. The app: Monitors the clipboard to store copied items. Overrides the paste function of the operating system via keyboard shortcuts. Modifies clipboard content, replacing what the user pastes with stored data. So, I have some questions: Can a sandboxed app continuously read and modify clipboard content? What entitlements are required? What permissions should I request from the user to ensure that my app works? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! Beril Bayram
