Extra step needed for installation #120

Thanks so much for this workflow - it works great. I just noted a small hiccup in the installation process that perhaps should be documented. The first time I ran it to set my API key, it failed with the error:

“alfred-pinboard-rs” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.

To fix this, I had to open the workflow's folder in Finder and explicitly run the alfred-pinboard-rs executable once via "Open" from the context menu, which gave me the option of authorizing the app. After that, everything has worked flawlessly.

Cheers

Will

Thanks for the report and workaround. Which version of macOS you are using? My hardware doesn't support the latest version of macOS so I cannot fully test these type of rough edges.

I was on Catalina. I have now updated to Big Sur, which I imagine would be similar.

With respect to the original problem, I am not sure there is anything you can do about it short of signing your binary with an Apple developer ID, which requires paying 100 USD a year :(

I found an alternative workaround for the end-user in this forum post, but I am not sure that it is any simpler than my method.
