Actions
Get Item from List
Returns one or more items from the list passed as input. You can get the first item, the last item, a random item, the item at a particular index, or items in a range of indexes.
Get Details of Images
Extracts information from an image, including album, width, heigh, date taken, media type, photo type, whether it’s a screenshot, location, duration, frame rate, orientation, camera make, camera model, metadata dictionary, whether it’s hidden, whether it’s a favorite, its name, and more.
Repeat with Each
Takes a list of items as input, and runs the contained actions once for each item in the list.
Combine Images
Combines the images passed into the action horizontally, vertically, or in a grid.
Save to Photo Album
Adds the photos and video passed as input to the specified photo album. This action is required if you want images, photos, or videos in Shortcuts to be saved into the Photos app.
Stop and Output
Stops execution of the current shortcut, and outputs content. This action is useful when:
• Running a shortcut from another shortcut (using the Run Shortcut action). The output will be used as the output of the Run Shortcut action.
• Running a shortcut from Quick Actions in Finder on macOS. The output will be saved as a file alongside the files selected in Finder.
• Running a shortcut from Services on macOS. The output will replace the selected content, if applicable.
• Or, when running a shortcut from another location that supports output, like the command-line or the Shortcuts URL scheme.
No more actions will be run after this action.
