Alfred is an award-winning app for Mac OS X which boosts your efficiency with hotkeys, keywords, text expansion and more. Search your Mac and the web, and be more productive with custom actions to control your Mac. And now even your Home assistants.
Right now will you be able to control you lights, get sensor information, trigger automations and look for your devices in device tracker.
Maybe more a case of don’t see the point, everything is already there in any web browser so what do you actually gain with this other than the satisfaction of doing something new.
When Alfred is central to the rest of your workflow (as is the case with most who use it) then the more you can do within Alfred the faster things are.
For me, going to a web browser is actually cumbersome compared to a few quick taps of the keys to action something. It also breaks the flow of whatever I’m doing at the time.
If you think about it from the perspective of calling up the right tab, finding the element you’d like to action then returning to your work area vs. quickly bringing up the Alfred omnibox, entering a few quick keystrokes without ever leaving what you were doing, it makes more sense.
If Alfred isn’t integral then yeah, I can see why you’d think there wasn’t much point.
Is there a specific way to set this up with new authentication? It looks like integration is not connecting to my HA instance, I tried the legacy api as well as the token. Using 0.89
two questions: is it possible to list and trigger scripts too? and is it possible to copy the sensor value and the sensor name (sensor.temperature for example) to clipboard?
