macOS Automator question - Safari

[tthorne]

I have a workflow set to grab my url's I want, then get the link url's from each page, then filter them keeping only the ones I want.

I am wondering if there is a way to then have all those url's cycle one after another in one window, on one tab, instead of opening them all in many windows or tabs. Thanks.

Here's some AppleScript that might do what you want. Maybe this will give you some ideas to solve what you are trying to do.

set urls to {"http://www.apple.com", "http://www.google.com"}

tell application "Safari"
	activate
	make new document
	repeat with aUrl in urls
		set URL of front document to aUrl
		delay 5
	end repeat
end tell

I worked on this a little more and came up with a final solution.

Insert a "Run Applescript" action (from the Utilities section) and make the code to:

on run {input, parameters}
	
	(* Your script goes here *)
	
	tell application "Safari"
		activate
		make new document
		repeat with aUrl in input
			set URL of front document to aUrl
			delay 5
		end repeat
	end tell
	
	--return input
end run
