I attached an Automator workflow to a folder that should index every new file copied into that folder in DTPro. The workflow looks like this:
(Ooops, somehow the first action didn’t translate into English. It is “Get Selected Finder Object”)
However, when I start the workflow, I get this error message:
This happens regardless of the file type I try to index. I tried RTF and PDF, both file types DTPro definitely understands. The error message also occurs, when I try to import (not index) the files via the workflow. It does NOT occur, however, when I import them manually via Drag&Drop.
Note: Workflows are like pipelines - every action has its own input and output and therefore the Finder selection will be lost if it’s not executed right before “Add Items To Current Group”.
Maybe it’s a bug - v1.1 will fix several Automator issues and therefore this workflow will work (just checked this). This version will be available soon.
