I use a tag called InProgress to ensure tasks I am working on show up in the forecast view. This works well enough, but I would prefer to not have to use a tag for this and instead use the flagged status.
I understand that this is not currently possible, but as a workaround I found this:
I am new to Omni Automation and am not sure how to make this work, Can I make this automatic, so the script runs when tasks are flagged or unfledged? Or do I have to remember to run the script periodically?
FYI I use OmniFocus on MacOS, iOS, iPadOS and web.
I don’t know if there are Omni Automation events that can be detected to trigger an OmniJS script. From what little I know, it looks like we have to trigger OmniJS scripts from the share sheet. There doesn’t appear to be an event trigger such as adding/removing a tag or completing/deleting a task that will start an OmniJS script.
I’m hoping there will be some development to trigger OmniJS scripts. That would be awesome.
Correct, there are no events/triggers currently. You have to call an Automation action manually inside OF, or an external program can run it via a omnifocus:///omnijs-run URL.
