Operation not permitted, Ventura 13.2.1

Hello, I'm getting the following error pop up window when I try to search for any notes.

You could try reinstalling the workflow from a fresh download because I've never seen that com.apple.provenance xattr before. Then you can try disabling and re-enabling the required permissions: https://github.com/sballin/alfred-search-notes-app#required-permissions and finally it may be related to the issue that Google notes are not supported: https://github.com/sballin/alfred-search-notes-app#email-notes-are-not-supported

Reinstalling with newest version did not help. Also re-enabling the permission you mentioned did not help. Notes I am searching for are Apple notes. Always the same popup.

[sballin]

Ok, then it could be related to com.apple.provenance or the google account even being enabled in Notes.

Alfred 4, same issue

Did this problem suddenly start happening, after doing something like upgrading the OS/Alfred, or is it your first time trying to use the workflow? What is your system language?

[wushugene]

I have the same issue. Just did a fresh install to Ventura 13.2.1 (from 12.4). First time using the workflow as well.

[sballin]

The first time you run it, are you getting automatically prompted to give it the various permissions described in the readme?

[mpodlodowski]

I’m using Ventura for quite a long time already. It was my first time trying to use the workflow. Not sure if I was asked to grant permissions

[sballin]

If you have the Go compiler installed, you can try following the compile instructions here: https://github.com/sballin/alfred-search-notes-app#compile

[sballin]

Also it may be most important to disable/re-enable the full disk access permission for Alfred, as described in the readme.

[mpodlodowski]

Yes! Thank you @sballin, full disk access permission was not granted to my Alfred. Everything's fine now.

[wushugene]

Worked for me as well, thank you!
