[Bug]: Unable to switch vault

[feliao]

Bug Description

Everything works fine. I can see both vaults (personal, Denodo) and can even switch into their finder location. But when I try to switch the workflow ("ov") from Personal to Denodo (Shift-enter), it just stays within Personal. The ticket symbol stays with personal and all the interactions stays with the Personal Vault.

Just to add, if I switch the sequence of which vault to initialise first, then I get the reverse problem, ie I can interact with the Denodo vault but can't switch into the Personal vault so the vault setup themselves seems to be fine.

Make sure you have done the following

• [X] I have updated to the latest version of this workflow.
• [X] I have read the Troubleshooting Documentation.
• [X] If the o… main search does not work, I have tried rerunning osetup and it still does not work.
• [X] If I updated to version 3+ for the first time, I have disabled migrating workflow cutomizations. (If you haven't, you can simply re-download and install the latest release from GitHub and uncheck Migrate my workflow customizations.)

so I looked into this, and it looks like these are 2 issues introduced by Alfred 5: 1) The notification fetches the wrong vault name, but the vault is correctly switched. 2) The vault sometimes isn't properly switched.

In case you are experiencing problem 1, I have added a fix for that in the latest release. However, in case you are experiencing problem 2, that would require a fix on Alfred 5's end, unfortunately 🙁

Thanks for looking into this Chris as I am starting to rely on your workflow more and more!

Just installed 3.2.3 and the problem still exists ☹️.

So you believe it is due to a bug in Alfred itself? does it happen to everyone?

[chrisgrieser]

okay, I have rewritten large parts of the workflow for #108, and as a side effect, this issue should also be solved now.

Thanks Chris!

It has definitely fixed my problem!

BTW have just bought you a cup of coffee (from Felix) for your amazing work and dedication!

Here is a related follow-up feature request (let me know if you want me to log this as a separate ticket) :+)

• Assuming people who are using your workflow want to control Obsidian via Alfred (that would be me), can I suggest that you change the keyboard shortcut to switch vault control to ov -> "ENTER". The current need to press ShIFT-ENTER (after OV) seems unnecessary and throws me off every time!

[chrisgrieser]

thank you!

regarding the feature request, the problem is that some people use the workflow to regularly open the workflow and switching shift+enter and enter would be unnecessary and off-trowing for them in turn. So I don't think i'm gonna implement that, sorry!
