I'm currently trying to use the new @UnionValue macro. From what I understood, it allows multiple types for a parameter. I created the following enum: @UnionValue enum IntentDuration { case int(Int) case duration(Measurement<UnitDuration>) } Then, I tried to use it in the following AppIntent: struct MyIntent: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "intent.title" static let description = IntentDescription("intent.description") static let openAppWhenRun: Bool = true @Parameter var duration: IntentDuration @Dependency private var appManager: AppManager @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { // My action return .result() } } However, I get the following error from Xcode at the @Parameter line: 'init()' is unavailable Did I wrongly understand how this works? Is there another way to accept multiple types for a parameter? I didn't manage to find any docs on this.

Hello, Relatively new to AppleScripts in current gen (I've used it back in 2010s) and would like some help if someone can point me in the right direction. Is AppleScript the best/only way to interact with Notes application? (I'm on Sequioa) 1.1 I've tried to use LLM to generate a Swift app, but it still calls out to AppleScripts, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something. 1.2 If I'm going down a rabbit hole, I'd like to stop since I want to finish this quick task and move on and or fall deeply in love with AppleScripts... whichever comes first. Is There a better way to write notes? Script Editor is still a minimal IDE, I'd love to find something that will do some auto completion/suggestions because the documentation in the Script Editor is still a tad weak. (I'm used to interpreted languages like bash, ruby, etc...) where if I don't understand something I just dig into the code instead of turse documentation that just exposes public end points and does not tell you much more :( My problem: I'd like to set up a cron that periodically checks my notes, and cleans up the shared notes. Basically it's a shared set of notes that have checklist on it and cleans up. (weekly chores etc...) I want to read the notes, find out which ones have been marked checked. Reset the ones that are done, leave unfinished ones alone and reset the old ones. This is how far I've gotten: let appleScript = """``` tell application "Notes" set targetNote to note "\Test" of default account return body of targetNote end tell That works like a charm, Kind of dumb because I rather use and ID of the note not the name :( It returns the following <div><b><span style=\\"font-size: 24px\\">Test</span></b></div> <div><br></div> <ul> <li> Not Done</li> <li>Done</li> <li>Not Done yet</li> </ul> <div><br></div> <div>Single line</div> Which is a good start! Issues: There is no way to tell which Item is marked "Checked" and which one is not :( Any helps is greatly appreciated!

I wrote an AppleScript that takes a bunch of scanned jpegs with systematically named filenames and transfers information from the filename into the date and time fields. That all works fine, but I've got many more scans to do and I'd like to augment the script to include a progress meter because it takes a long time to run on e.g. 1000 photos. I've found basic progress meter examples online that involves commands like: set progress total steps to theImageCount set progress completed steps to 0 set progress description to "Processing Images..." set progress additional description to "Preparing to process." and they run OK in a separate dummy test case, however I'm getting syntax errors for such commands in my renaming script because (I think) they're inside a tell application "Photos" wrapper and it looks like Photos doesn't like those commands. A progress meter (in any AppleScript) should be a straightforward thing i.e. I can clearly define a total number of steps and I can clearly define the step number I'm currently on. I just want to display something like: I'd even be OK with just implementing something like: display dialog "blah blah" but that needs to be manually dismissed with each iteration of the loop, so that's no good. I also tried: display notification "blah blah" but that yields hundreds of notification boxes at the top right of my screen, so that's also impractical. I was even thinking maybe I could call some generic system progress meter with all the right variables via a "do shell script" command (although I have no idea how to do that). Something surely must be possible, but I just can't figure it out :-(. Could some kind soul please help me out. Thanks.

On iOS 18, I'm trying to index documents in Spotlight using the new combination of AppIntents+IndexedEntity. However, I don't seem to be able to index the textContent of the document. Only the displayName seems to be indexed. As recommended, I start with the defaultAttributeSet: /// I call this function to index in Spotlight static func indexInSpotlight(document: Document) async { do { if let entity = document.toEntity { try await CSSearchableIndex.default().indexAppEntities([entity]) } } catch { DLog("Spotlight: could not index document: \(document.name ?? "")") } } /// This is the corresponding IndexedEntity with the attributeSet @available(iOS 18, *) extension DocumentEntity { var attributeSet: CSSearchableItemAttributeSet { let attributeSet = defaultAttributeSet attributeSet.title = title attributeSet.displayName = title attributeSet.textContent = docContent attributeSet.thumbnailData = thumbnailData attributeSet.kind = "document" attributeSet.creator = Constants.APP_NAME return attributeSet } } How can I have more that the displayName to be indexed? Thanks :-)

Hi all, I'm developing a sandboxed Mac OS app that generates and compiles AppleScript files to automate tasks in Pages (and other iWork apps). The app creates an AppleScript file and writes it to the NSApplicationScriptsDirectory (i.e., ~/Library/Application Scripts/com.example.app), then compiles and executes it via NSUserAppleScriptTask. On Mac OS Ventura, however, I get the following error in the console when trying to write the file: [PagesModifier] Error creating or compiling the script: You are not allowed to save the file "PagesModifier_...applescript" in the folder "com.example.app" Here are my current entitlements: &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; &lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"&gt; &lt;plist version="1.0"&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.app-sandbox&lt;/key&gt; &lt;true/&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.application-groups&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array/&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.automation.apple-events&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Pages&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Numbers&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Keynote&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write&lt;/key&gt; &lt;true/&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.scripting-targets&lt;/key&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.iWork.Keynote&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Keynote&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.iWork.Numbers&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Numbers&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.iWork.Pages&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Pages&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.temporary-exception.apple-events&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Pages&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Numbers&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string&gt;com.apple.iWork.Keynote&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;key&gt;com.apple.security.temporary-exception.files.home-relative-path.read-write&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;Library/Application Scripts/com.example.app&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/plist&gt; I suspect the issue might be due to sandbox restrictions on dynamically creating or modifying the Application Scripts directory on Ventura. Has anyone experienced something similar or have any suggestions on how to work around this? Thanks in advance for your help!

I have a chat/search functionality in my app, I want to integrate siri where user can say something "Hey siri! Ask myApp to get latest news" then I want to invoke my search functionality with "get latest news". I see iOS apps like chatGPT and youtube have already achieved this. I am able to invoke the intent with static phrase which is expecting the parameter, user is able to provide the value when prompted after requestValueDialog. But it is a 2 step process for end user. I want to achieve in a single step. struct CombinedSiriShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider { static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] { return [ AppShortcut( intent: ShowSpecificNewsArticleIntent(), phrases: [ "Ask \(.applicationName) to run a query:", ], shortTitle: "Specific News Article", systemImageName: "doc.text.fill" ), AppShortcut( intent: TestQuery(), phrases: [ "Ask \(.applicationName) to \(\.$query)", ], shortTitle: "Test intent", systemImageName: "doc.text.fill" ), ] } } struct ShowSpecificNewsArticleIntent: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Show Specific News Article" static var description = IntentDescription( "Provides details about a specific news article based on its title." ) @Parameter(title: "Query") var query: String @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog & ShowsSnippetView { print("in show specific intent"); print(query); return .result(dialog: "view more about: \(query)") } }

I'm developing an AppIntent with a Duration parameter, the definition looks like this: @Parameter(title: "Duration", description: "Time entry duration") var duration: Measurement<UnitDuration> When I run this AppIntent using Siri voice command (by a shortcut) the system asks for the duration value, however when I try to say "1 hour 10 minutes" the "hour" component is ignored, in the AppIntent's perform() method I see only the minutes set (so in this case only 10 minutes). Is there any way to use the Duration type for this type of natural language input? When I try to set only 10 minutues, or 1 hour separately it works, just the combination of these two fails. Thank you

I have seen some application having custom images in shortcuts app, but after refreing all the apple documentation and source code im yet to figure out a way to show images. the AppShortcutProvider only supports Sfsymbols as of now. then how come other applications is able to do this ? please advice ?

I am trying to setup in Automator a Folder Action, where screenshots on Desktop are automatically imported into my Photos app Unfortunately, the automation is not working. When I have a screenshot on the Desktop and I open Automator to manually trigger, I receive the error: The action "Import Files into Photos" encountered an error: "Import Files into Photos script failed" Under log, it further says: The action "Import Files into Photos" was not supplied with the required data

I have a custom intent. When my app is unable to complete the resolution of a parameter within the app extension, I need to be able to continue within the app. I am unable to figure out what the correct objective C syntax is to enable the execution to continue with the app. Here is what I have tried: completion([[PickWoodIntentResponse init] initWithCode:PickWoodIntentResponseCodeContinueInApp userActivity:nil]); This results in the following error: Implicit conversion from enumeration type 'enum PickWoodIntentResponseCode' to different enumeration type 'INAnswerCallIntentResponseCode' (aka 'enum INAnswerCallIntentResponseCode') I have no idea why it is referring to the enum type of 'INAnswerCallIntentResponseCode' which is unrelated to my app. I have also tried: PickWoodIntentResponse *response = [[PickWoodIntentResponse init] initWithCode:PickWoodIntentResponseCodeContinueInApp userActivity:nil]; completion(response); but that results in 2 errors: Implicit conversion from enumeration type 'enum PickWoodIntentResponseCode' to different enumeration type 'INAnswerCallIntentResponseCode' (aka 'enum INAnswerCallIntentResponseCode') and Incompatible pointer types passing 'PickWoodIntentResponse *' to parameter of type 'INStringResolutionResult *' The relevant autogenerated code provided to me with the creation of my intent is as follows: @class PickWoodIntentResponse; @protocol PickWoodIntentHandling <NSObject> - (void)resolveVarietyForPickWood:(PickWoodIntent *)intent withCompletion:(void (^)(INStringResolutionResult *resolutionResult))completion NS_SWIFT_NAME(resolveVariety(for:with:)) API_AVAILABLE(ios(13.0), macos(11.0), watchos(6.0)); @end typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, PickWoodIntentResponseCode) { PickWoodIntentResponseCodeUnspecified = 0, PickWoodIntentResponseCodeReady, PickWoodIntentResponseCodeContinueInApp, PickWoodIntentResponseCodeInProgress, PickWoodIntentResponseCodeSuccess, PickWoodIntentResponseCodeFailure, PickWoodIntentResponseCodeFailureRequiringAppLaunch } @interface PickWoodIntentResponse : INIntentResponse - (instancetype)init NS_UNAVAILABLE; - (instancetype)initWithCode:(PickWoodIntentResponseCode)code userActivity:(nullable NSUserActivity *)userActivity NS_DESIGNATED_INITIALIZER; @property (readonly, NS_NONATOMIC_IOSONLY) PickWoodIntentResponseCode code; @end Am I overlooking something? What would be the proper syntax to have within the completion block to satisfy the compiler?

Is VIP an object contained in the mail or contacts apps/objects? Or is it just a property somewhere? Or is it an independent object? Where is the VIP object? Is it still managed in the mail app or is it just hidden because the design is changing at Apple? The following AppleScript is failing: tell application "Mail" set theVIPs to VIPs with the error: error "Die Variable „VIPs“ ist nicht definiert." number -2753 from "VIPs" (The variable "VIPs" is not defined.". In Mail.sdef documentation and in Contacts.sdef documentation I cannot find any documentation of VIP object or VIP property.

I am on MacOS 15.5 trying to access tmutil latestbackup in AppleScript: set latestBackup to do shell script "tmutil latestbackup" It works perfect when run from script editor, and script editor is in full disk access permission list. When I export to an app and run it it fails with: Error retrieving latest backup: tmutil: latestbackup requires Full Disk Access privileges. To allow this operation, select Full Disk Access in the Privacy tab of the Security & Privacy preference pane, and add Terminal to the list of applications which are allowed Full Disk Access. Error code: 80 Terminal is on list, as is name of the app. I have same issue running in safe mode. I have tried deleting and redefining full disk access entries, all to no avail. Apple tech support says its a developer issue, but code works in script editor. any ideas?

Was going to add a shortcut to an app via INIntent. I followed the WWDC developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10232/?time=986 Steps: Created a .intentdefinition file and created an intent. Added the intent to .intentdefinition and compiled the app. Import the header file for the custom intent in the AppDelegate MyIntentname.h Have the AppDelegate conform to the protocol created in the generated code. Implement: -application:handlerForIntent: and return self (the app delegate) Run the app. Open the Shortcuts app and search for the 'shortcut' (according to the WWDC video linked above it should show up in the actions list). Doesn't show up in the list. I tried moving the build application out from Debug to my Applications folder to see if that would help the Shortcuts app find it, but it didn't. Am I missing a step/doing something wrong?

I ran the following script while both VSCode and Windsurf were open. tell application "System Events" set electronProcesses to every application process whose name is "Electron" set outputText to "" repeat with p in electronProcesses set outputText to outputText & "Process: " & name of p set outputText to outputText & ", Displayed name: " & displayed name of p set outputText to outputText & ", Frontmost: " & frontmost of p & " " end repeat return outputText end tell The script incorrectly returned two Electron processes, where both were showing Windsurf as the displayed name. The output of the above script is: Process: Electron, Displayed name: Windsurf, Frontmost: false Process: Electron, Displayed name: Windsurf, Frontmost: false Separately, both Windsurf and VSCode share the same process name (Electron) but have different displayed names. This issue appears to affect how the frontmost application is detected, when using the following script: set frontApp to first application process whose frontmost is true The frontApp is incorrectly returned when switching between VSCode and Windsurf.

I'm developing an iOS app that uses Siri Shortcuts to enhance the user experience. Currently, I have implemented functionality that allows users to perform certain actions via Siri Shortcuts. My team wants to improve the user experience by giving an instructional audio prompt (e.g., "say 'hey Siri [action name]' if you want to [perform action]") to users. However, we want to ensure this prompt is only played when the user has already enabled Siri Shortcuts. The challenge is determining whether Siri Shortcuts are properly enabled before suggesting their use. We want to avoid situations where users follow our audio instructions to use Siri, only to discover that Siri Shortcuts aren't properly configured on their device. Since we're using Siri Shortcuts for this feature, the standard requestSiriAuthorization(_:) method doesn't apply to our use case(It said You don’t need to request authorization if your app only supports actions in the Shortcuts app. in https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sirikit/requesting-authorization-to-use-siri). What is the recommended approach to verify that Siri Shortcuts are properly enabled before prompting users to interact with them? Is there a reliable way to check this status(should be the bool value of the toggle in the pic below) programmatically? Thank you for your assistance.

Add NSUserActiveTypes -&gt;INSendMessage Intent to info. plist. Starting the app on watchos will handoff Outlook on Mac? Normal on iOS.

I have an app that lets you create cars. I have a CarEntity, an OpenCarIntent, and a CreateCarIntent. I want to support the Open When Run option when creating a car. I understand to do this, you just update the return type of your perform function to include & OpensIntent, then change your return value to include opensIntent: OpenCarIntent(target: carEntity). When I do this, I get a compile-time error: Cannot convert value of type 'CarEntity' to expected argument type 'IntentParameter<CarEntity>' What am I doing wrong here? struct CreateCarIntent: ForegroundContinuableIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Create Car" @Parameter(title: "Name") var name: String @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<CarEntity> & OpensIntent { let managedObjectContext = PersistenceController.shared.container.viewContext let car = Car(context: managedObjectContext) car.name = name try await managedObjectContext.perform { try managedObjectContext.save() } let carEntity = CarEntity(car: car) return .result( value: carEntity, opensIntent: OpenCarIntent(target: carEntity) // FIXME: Won't compile ) } } struct OpenCarIntent: OpenIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Open Car" @Parameter(title: "Car") var target: CarEntity @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { await UIApplication.shared.open(URL(string: "carapp://cars/view?id=\(target.id)")!) return .result() } }

In the Get to Know App Intents WWDC session, it was said New this year, you can now add Spotlight indexing keys directly on properties. Annotating properties allows Spotlight to show more relevant information to customers. When donating indexed entities, the framework will handle creating the searchable item and attribute set for you. After donating entities, they can be found in Spotlight. How do you donate indexed app entities? Making app entities available in Spotlight seems to state it's not necessary to donate entities: The system can automatically extract the keys for Spotlight indexing at compile time and store them in the App Intents metadata that Xcode generates as part of your app’s bundle. As a result, Spotlight indexing is faster and can find your app entities without launching your app, and without you having to explicitly donate the entities to Spotlight. You also don’t need to manually update or remove entities from the Spotlight index when your app’s data changes. Say I have a CarEntity. The user can create/update/delete cars at any time. What is the modern way to get cars to appear in Spotlight in iOS 26?

I've created an app that grabs the current URL and Title/name from the frontmost window/tab of Safari or any of a number of Chromium browsers, using NSAppleScript. The app sits in the menu bar and can be summoned by shortcut key combo. let script = """ tell application \"Safari\" if not (exists front window) then return {\"\", \"\"} set theTab to current tab of front window set theURL to URL of theTab set theTitle to name of theTab return {theURL, theTitle} end tell """ if let appleScript = NSAppleScript(source: script) { let output = appleScript.executeAndReturnError(&error) if output.numberOfItems == 2 { let url = output.atIndex(1)?.stringValue let title = output.atIndex(2)?.stringValue if let url = url, !url.isEmpty { return (url, title) } } } If I sign an archived build and run it locally it works beautifully, no matter which browser I am using. But the URL/title grabbing breaks in sandbox due to permissions. I read and have been informed that I need to use com.apple.security.scripting-targets entitlement. The example for this is in WWDC 2012 and talks about accessing Mail compose window. <key>com.apple.security.scripting-targets</key> <dict> <key>com.apple.mail</key> <array> <string>com.apple.mail.compose</string> </array> </dict> However, I don't want to control the app or use any access groups, as I've looked through the sdef and Safari/Chrome do not provide any access groups whose contents I'm interested in. I just want to get the property/values of a window/tab. So I think I could be quite restrictive about the read-only access to two properties or objects that I need. That said, I'm going back and forth with TestFlight review kind of shooting in the dark. I need help! So I figure it's time to ask: what content should my entitlement have? Or am I on the wrong path entirely? I know it's possible because an app called Neptunes does it to get properties from Music.app Many thanks in advance, matt
