macOS Did Display Notification

Configuration Help & General Discussion
1

macOS: Sequoia (15.7.3)
BetterTouchTool: 6.167

Full Disk acces set, why is this preset not working?

exported_triggers.bttpreset (836 Bytes)

2

It seems to work fine here, however note that there will always be a significant delay with this (2-5s)

Did you restart BTT after granting full disk access?

3

Disk acces setting was done long ago and still valid. Does it only watches for macOS notifications(tested now with terminal notifier and works), not for app/browser ones?

4

if the browser shows them via Apple's notification framework (so they show up in control center) that should work fine

5

They show up in the notification center. But not in the clipboard(via the BTT trigger)

6

I just tested via Safari, it seems to work ok here.

Note: your preset always puts "notification text" into the clipboard, so the text would always be the same. Is this intentional?

7

I'm using Helium(Chromium based) browser. No fixed text is not intentional, I want the notification text in the clipboard

Then try this instead:

exported_triggers.bttpreset (2.4 KB)

It runs this java script to access the notification body and set it to clipboard:


async function copyNotificationToClipboard() {
    let notificationsString = await get_string_variable("BTTLastShownMacOSUserNotifications");
	let notificationsJSON = JSON.parse(notificationsString);
	let lastNotification = notificationsJSON[0];
	let body = lastNotification["body"];
	await set_clipboard_content({content:body, format: 'NSPasteboardTypeString'})

	return notificationsJSON;
}

Works great, Thanks !:+1:
