    shortcutName
    [[Shortcut]]
    waitForResponse
    false
  • script (macOS only)

    /*
    	Execute Shortcut using Pushcut automation server
    */
    
    // First run, you will be prompted for
    // Puscut.io API Key generated in Account -> Integrations -> Add API Key
    
    // Heavy borrowing from all the actions I could find that POST using HTTP.request() and
    // actions that pass around JSON data.
    
    var credential = Credential.create("pushcut.io", "Puscut.io API Key generated in Account -> Integrations -> Add API Key");
    
    credential.addTextField("apikey", "API Key");
    credential.authorize();
    
    var apikey = credential.getValue("apikey");
    
    // Setup micro.blog API and content 
    var endpoint = "https://api.pushcut.io/v1/execute";
    var content = draft.content;
    var data = { "input" : content};
    
    // create and post HTTP request
    var http = HTTP.create();
    var response = http.request({
      "url": endpoint,
      "method": "POST",
      "encoding": "json",
      "parameters": {
      		"shortcut": draft.getTemplateTag("Shortcut")
      },
      "data": data,
      "headers": {
        "API-Key": apikey
      }
    });
    
    // console.log("Response: " + response.statusCode);
    // console.log("Data: " + JSON.stringify(data));
    
    if (response.statusCode != 200 && response.statusCode != 202) {
      context.fail();
    }
